- Ontarian, on 01/08/2009, -10/+102way fake
- SirBloody, on 01/08/2009, -2/+94Didn't the Mythbusters bust this?
- YoWhatDaFuxUp, on 01/08/2009, -3/+72LOL new and refreshing
OMG have you seen this dancing baby yet
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W4EBoQmWPs - cryonix, on 01/08/2009, -1/+39Yes. Mythbusters already busted this. Years ago.
- flamesoftheend, on 01/08/2009, -9/+45Holy *****, Japanese Mythbusters!
- ZaxCG2, on 01/08/2009, -0/+31You do know Mythbusters did that show BASED on this video right? They never showed it probably because of copyright issues.
- ryeno, on 01/08/2009, -3/+34Pretty cool but I'll take late night MXC reruns any day.
- wignasty, on 01/08/2009, -3/+29Looks fake to me. It looks like he's suspended by a cable or something. After his bottles have already stopped spraying, he's still slowing in his fall. Then, in a later close shot of him spinning in the air it looks like he's dangling from a cable, not being pulled up by the jetpack.
- CivicTV, on 08/14/2009, -2/+24Oh look at this!

DUPE - soggydave2113, on 01/08/2009, -0/+21Yes, but Adam and Jamie aren't Japanese
- Tr33fiddy, on 01/08/2009, -1/+21It's not possible to combine jetpacks and boredom.
- directedition, on 01/08/2009, -0/+18yeah, hamburgers definitely need cheese
- jasdf, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1721 years of observing the world around me tells me that the physics are not right.
- flangepiece, on 01/08/2009, -3/+19Fake or not I still find the clip exceptionally funny.
- mnemy, on 01/08/2009, -2/+16I <3 Japanese TV
- cawpin, on 01/08/2009, -3/+16http://digg.com/tech_news/Water_Bottle_Jetpack
3 1/2 ***** years, dude. Stop posting this old, stupid *****. - msaleem, on 01/08/2009, -7/+17Supermajorfun and possibly deathtimecombo.
- sdcarter, on 01/08/2009, -1/+11Yeah, if I remember right, I think they weren't even able to completely get off the launch pad.
- Maudrid, on 01/08/2009, -2/+11SOOOOO old.
- jba68, on 01/08/2009, -0/+9I admire the Japanese "***** it" attitude
Here in the U.S we can't do anything like that without fear of offending water bottles, or water.
Maybe if he was dancing with Bottles it would air here, on Fox - DontDoDrugs, on 01/08/2009, -0/+9If you pay attention to when he is launched, his body moves upward BEFORE the pack of water jugs moves upwards, implying that the harness that he was wearing pulled him upward and that the pack of water jugs on his back was just attached to him (but not what caused him to get launched upward).
- ayeroxor, on 01/08/2009, -1/+9Well, I'll be darned! That's just hilarious! And clearly as brand new as the jetpack! I love being a noob!
- Zippo, on 01/08/2009, -1/+8yeah, this guy definitely looks like he's on a wire.
- bentrinh, on 01/09/2009, -0/+7*busted by mybusters
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MythBusters_(season_3 ... - xanadont, on 01/08/2009, -2/+8The *real* physics of a contraption like this would have him instantly flip and propelled straight down to the water.
- DontDoDrugs, on 01/08/2009, -0/+6http://blog.dotphys.net/2009/01/water-bottle-rocke ...
Here is a blog mentioned by someone in a comment below that shows what I was talking about. - snotrokit, on 01/08/2009, -0/+6I think the safety equipment is the best. Looks like a top notch operation.
- chanop, on 01/08/2009, -0/+5yes
- jordanwlee, on 01/08/2009, -0/+5The look on his face just before launch...."Oh *****."
- Parastie, on 01/08/2009, -0/+5What the...where the hell has Gizmodo been in the last 10 years? How could they possibly post this as 'new' news? Come on Giz, I know you guys are busy with new tech and stuff but you should keep up with the internt and at least Mythbusters.
- chevyorange, on 01/08/2009, -1/+6I still laugh thinking about the one contestant that was, "born without a taint."
- AgentMull, on 01/09/2009, -0/+4Right you are Ken.
- kyoobeh, on 01/08/2009, -1/+5I love on Japanese TV how they /always/ show the reactions of the people in the in-studio audience on the bottom right corner of the screen. the looks on their faces are always priceless.
- Ac1dburn, on 01/08/2009, -1/+5That's a recipe for Japanese television success!
- izzy416, on 01/08/2009, -0/+3done on mythbusters
- stevesloan, on 01/08/2009, -1/+4Saw this years ago. Old as crap!
- chanop, on 01/08/2009, -2/+5Yes, they didn't get the same results
- chanop, on 01/08/2009, -1/+4yes
- cstaylor89, on 01/08/2009, -0/+3jetpacks + anything = awesome
- zadadka, on 01/08/2009, -0/+3You get Darwin Award Candidates?
- cquinnd, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2I read "Combine" and "JetPack" in the title and thought for a second that HL2 Episode 3 had finally seen an update.
- 3uster, on 01/08/2009, -1/+3old and myth busted on Mythbusters
- inactive, on 01/08/2009, -2/+4Totally real
- DelMonte, on 01/08/2009, -2/+4Godlike:
If we were on a real forum, you would've been banned already. - konataXchan, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2What is with Japanese Television and picture and picture?
Doesn't it seem like every Japanese game show in history has used Picture and Picture. Even before PIP was invented they somehow were using it. - kimble85, on 01/09/2009, -0/+2I have to agree with you on this one. There is no way in hell that the amount of force necessary to do that working on that angle on his back would do anything else than give him a huge spin.
- dupeduperson, on 01/08/2009, -1/+3yes this is old. Most likely fake. Here is my analysis:
http://blog.dotphys.net/2009/01/water-bottle-rocke ... - chowderdick, on 01/08/2009, -1/+2I think real physics is being replaced by bad CGI physics is many people's perception...
- StewMeat, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1buried for being a retarded and blind submitter.
- inactive, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1Myth busted.
