vid with a landing at the end: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLXjAt26xB8 I could be wrong, but I also think that this is real: - as Billvon said, engines are available in the RC world - configuration makes sense: engines are mounted in the flyboard, throttle control in hand, fuel in a backpack, control by balance just like water-fed flyboards - from an unknown source, hoax would not be damaging. But from a company making those water-fed flyboards, an hoax would only have negative results. Now, this device has strong limitations: any engine failure (probability is multiplied by # of engines) and it will go down fast, so it is limited to fly low over water deep enough to cushion a fall + drowning risk with all this weight attached to pilot. I also think that the wireless controller is an added risk, mostly from RF interference. As there is already a fuel line connecting the backpack to the board, a control wire connecting the throttle to the board wouldn't pose any more problems. All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111!

I was skeptic at first too, but an hoax would be a very bad PR stunt for the company (Zapata Racing). And other videos, recorded by third parties during tests, are emerging: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLXjAt26xB8 Edit: I forgot to add that this is beyond awesome!

At a conference of Archeologists in Paris, a group of the delegates were having a discussion over a few drinks at the hotel bar discussing recent discoveries. The German guy was explaining at a recent dig near Düsseldorf to a depth of 10 feet last year, German scientists found traces of copper wire dating back 200 years and came to the conclusion that **their** ancestors already had a telephone network more than 150 years ago. Not to be outdone by the Germans, the French archaeologist noted that they had excavated to a depth of 20 feet at a site in Lyon, and shortly afterwards, a story was published in the "Le Monde" newspaper: "French archaeologists, finding traces of 250-year-old copper wire, have concluded that **their** ancestors already had an advanced high-tech communications network 50 years earlier than the Germans". The Belgian representing the "Bureau des Mines" in Wallonia piped up and noted that their Scientific Journal published the following; "After digging as deep as 30 feet in Wallonia , Belgium, just outside of the city of Charleroi, Albert Cougné, a self-taught archaeologist, reported that he found absolutely nothing at all. Albert had therefore concluded that 250 years ago, Belgium had already gone wireless." All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111!
