Raymond Li’s Water Jetpack For $136,000, The Doctor Octopus Is Here W/ No Hover Board.

Today has been such a good day, I get home and watch all these nice trailer shorts, and then i learn about the creation of a selling Water Jetpack! By Raymond Li, the new Doctor Octopus of water, the childhood dreams have finally come true and you can now fly on water! I’d much rather have a hover-board, but hey I’m not complaining, especially with these going for only $136,000.

It’s taken over 10 years for its Canadian inventor, Raymond Li, to realize his dream and see his jetpack go on sale, but judging by the pictures it looks well worth the wait.

The Jetlev has three main components — a lightweight carbon fiber backpack, a 10-meter hose and an engine unit which floats on the water.

The engine sucks water up through the hose and forces it through two adjustable nozzles on the backpack, creating up to 500 pounds of thrust…

Small adjustments to the hand controls allow pilots to control the speed — a maximum of 35 kph (22 mph) — and your height, which rises to a maximum of 10 meters (30 feet), according to the manufacturers.
