You may recall seeing black and white footage from the last 50 years or so showing cold-war tech jetpacks.

This particular incarnation is what some do-it-youself-er successfully engineered and flew in the current decade, a la Tony Stark. Well, not exactly IronMan, but you get the idea.

Another "future is now" invention.  Makes a great stocking stuffer.
