  • xD Super Mario Sunshine, Nintendo GameCube

  • When I see this I only think of one thing. "Super Mario Sun Shine!"

  • i think the fire fighters should implement this into their fire fighting strategy

  • Кто эти 8емь?

  • i hope someday i can get it....pimp my ride pliiiisssssssss

  • Fludd. Nuff Said.

  • does it come with a water squirting feature, becauses thats some major mario sunshine stuff

  • super mario sunshine

  • I'm sure our fucked up government will find a way to put strict rules & regulations on something like this.... Good job & two thumbs up to the man who invented this

  • @GeneticallySuperior1 The inventor is Canadian so i dont think american will be taking over this project.

  • Dear Santa...

  • Not that anyone will probably care, but burning fossil fuels for leisure is kind of stupid in the current age. Looks like fun though.

  • Does this use gasoline that will inevitably pollute the lake?

  • eu com um desse atravessava o oceano!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Shark one: what the fuck is that?

    Shark two: its like some kind of bionic dolphin!!

    Shark one: should we take a bite, it looks delicious?

    Shark two: fuck yeah!!!

  • awsome!

    

  • wireless version? facepalm. this is waterjet lol

  • Cool shit!

  • Hey - They got this from Super Mario Sunshine on the Gamecube!

  • This world is only getting weirder and weirder. At least, science fiction is dead.

  • i want to be iron man too!

  • HOLY CRAP, i WANT ONE!!! any one willing to buy a kidney PM me.

  • talk about power washing

  • All types of awesome.

  • proof it

  • well you could def get away from a shark fast =)

  • а вот это реально круто.

  • Mario sunshine is the highest rated comment on every friggin jet pack video.

  • how much did that cost

  • ahhhhhhhhhh i want one of those

  • Comment removed

  • STEAM CLEANER HAHAH

  • I am pretty ready to put my head down to say this cannot be real... unless I am missing out on some parts. Sucking water from the pipe and blowing out in the opposite direction will not create trust; it will just cancel out.. I cannot see the working principle.

  • @fionantino : I think you missed the fact, that the pipe which sucks the water is much thicker than the blast pipe where the water comes out. The acceleration force of the water ( created by the different pipethicknes ) pushes the "jetpack" in the air.

  • @fionantino can you not see the water pump attached to his back

  • gta

  • Nice Hoover Nozzle bro

  • this really great :).. u never run out of fuel.. u can use it in the ocean..

  • @BeconaseAQ The water shot out of those nozzles still has to be powered by something.. probably a petrol engine.

  • @Zlyzer ya this is kinda crappy for the environment really, fossil fuels etc...

  • Liesure Industry will love it and maybe rescue at sea.

  • Wow It's F.L.U.D.D. (Flash Liquidizer Ultra Dousing Device) in it's earliest form.

  • Zomg, I need to play Super Mario Sunshine now!

  • ..pretty sure the water goes up his arse, and comes out his armpits. Saw it in Popular Mechanics. Swear to god...

  • Cue Steppenwolf... 

  • also i bet it would make a lot more money if you make it brown and grey, and then make the water come out as steam.

    i know the steampunk craze is about over (just before it started, really), but still...

  • @lygophile ..I get it!, big zeppelin-aviator goggles, straw hat, britches, suspenders, waist-coat, and some sort of special belt with dials and brass levers on it. Powered of course by something Nicola Tesla managed to patent when he wasn't being brilliant and weird. (I had to research the steampunk genre for a project).

  • @breaneainn. uhm... yeah, that.

  • @lygophile (sigh) guess I'll take my steampunk enthusiasm elsewhere...;( lol

  • @breaneainn. i lol'd.

  • bs, that's not water power. water is just used to conduct pressure.

  • this is cool, and if it dies you just splash.

  • Is there a wireless version of it?

  • San Andreas 2

  • I saw this EXACT footage on BBC a while back...

  • all u need is to trans tat to gas and add somes weapons and ur good

  • another fun way to get wet...

  • Only a matter of time till someone shoots off the tube. '

  • I bet that jetpack is water cooled

  • Bruce Willis?

  • I thought one day do that too...

  • What  a WET ride!

  • Howw......bárbaro. Adorei isso. Tem pra vender onde?

    abraços

  • Dry land. Thump...

  • The noise must amuse the neighbours no end.

  • @DoctorPlausible innit!! i bet that shit is WELL LOUD!

  • Fuuuckkk... want want want

  • If we find a way to transmit the water through wireless, we'll be capable of flying and watering crops at the same time.

  • now they need to make one that will launch into space

  • Very cool...if you have 800 grand!

  • OK sold. Where can I buy one?

  • Humans find a smart sway to feel dumb again.

  • I am assuming that this is going to sell like hotcakes in Venice

  • Gta San Andreas real life?

  • What's the reason to make it waterbased rather than air-based? I thought it was all about pressure differentials, whether it'd be generated by water or air.

    But I'd just think that air would make the application more flexible since you have air everywhere unlike water.

    Of course, this restriction is a good way to guarantee safety. If you fall, you fall in water, and if you go too high, the pump will lift from the water as well, causing you to go down again.

  • hello cancer! Hellooooo!!!??!!

  • lol

  • this is the one thing on newsciencevideo that can't cure cancer

  • Wow!

    

  • crazy

  • If i lived in Venice, this would be my vehicle...

  • I imagine a fish getting sucked through that tube.

  • So he can't leave the water, big deal, it still shits all over any other water sport. Surfing can go kiss my ass :P

  • you could travel across the ocean with this if you wanted. maybe i actually have no idea about how long this would work

  • super Mario sunshine

  • Limited

  • i dont belief it

  • i was expectin song magic carpet ride!

  • And how long will the company last after buyers sue because the jets flailed the skin off their feet.

  • Too bad this isn't a jet pack. It's water propulsion. lrn2science NewScientists

  • @juggalohomiez9: Too bad that there are multiple definitions of jet, one being "the occurrence of a sudden discharge (as of liquid)". L2research first rofl.

  • @sutasman Wtf is research lols

  • I'll take it.

  • Wow This is going to keeps us all happy like for 10minutes!! Technology..equals search for happiness but all u get is a cheap thrill for couple of days or months...

  • Weeee. i want one.

  • For every action there is an opposite reaction. But it's not always practical.

  • It is not a jetpack. It is just a water cushion harness.

  • On sale in March huh? I wonder how many drunk dipshits at the lake are gonna kill themselves with it?

  • but how will this affect porn?

  • FLUDD is real! Super Mario Sunshine FTW!

  • I want one :)

  • Meet George Jetson,

    His boy Elroy

    Daughter Judy,

    Jane his wife.

  • So these will take me anywhere I want as long as I am at close proximity to a water source?

    I keed! I like it :)

  • poor fish lol

  • it's a share this is only a novelty item. i want a jetpack that doesn't tether me to the water. i.e. the martin jetpack thats already on sale now for around 100k and it's top speed is around 96km/h. Its powered by a 150kW gasoline engine using 2 ducted fans for thrust. It's range is about 51km per tank. It can carry max 130kg (includes the passenger) for payload. Max altitude ~2.5km

  • @RELIGIONmustDIE u said per tank how many is there

  • @MrTimoteo1596 I guess you don't know the definition of colloquial. Does that make you smart?

  • What the fuck. There must be a tremendous amount of pressure in that bitch.

  • LOOKS LIKE IT WOULD CUT THE LEGS OFF YOU

  • I WANT ONE

  • how much would it hurt if your feet got caught in the exhaust water

  • awesome!

  • WANT!!!

  • The return of Poseidon !
