    Nice... Looks cool on the video. However, I bet it's as noisy as hell, other folks around would just love you for spoiling their peace and quiet . Also, did you notice how the boaty thing it has to drag behind was always kept out of camera shot, apart from from on the long shots. I bet that severly restricts what you can do with it. Nice toy though if you've got >$110/k to spare.

    Hmm -
    Appears to be using personal watercraft components to provide the thrust -
    I have two at the house that haven't seen much use lately...

    Metrologic HeNe 3.3mw Modulated laser, 2 Radio Shack motors, and a broken mirror.

    I love the youtube comments: "$140,000 is a lot of whores and coke..." Indeed.

    Cool looking unit, but waaaaaay to pricey.

    Uhm.... Pretty but foolish toy....
    For $ 140,000....Better to continue to swim on the water as we're use to do...
    Did you see the lenght of yellow tube for the water jets (and more.... the white floating pump box that is following you on fly...)?
    How much high you are thinking to fly for? Maybe ten meters? And then? You smash down to ground (water).... Hoping there are not crocodiles/alligators/anacondas/piranhas inside......

    Personal thought: it is a real huge crap.... a blooding toy for millionairs only.....
    Better to purchase a super-powerful RGB White light, a pretty car and tons of fresh beer to drink with mates (a nice pussy also is already included with car, of course...)
