Is this for real an actual jetpack that works?  Wow!  In this ted talk they show you something pretty amazing that will likely change the future.  Here is an excerpt about the video:

Strapped to a jet-powered wing, Yves Rossy is the Jetman — flying free, his body as the rudder, above the Swiss Alps and the Grand Canyon. After a powerful short film shows how it works, Rossy takes the TEDGlobal stage to share the experience and thrill of flying.

One of the commenters got excited when seeing the video and states:

I can see where the Military would jump on this Jet-Powered Wing for their soldiers!!!

I don ‘t know how many inventions right now can top the excitement of this one.

Ok you gotta check this thing out in action in the video on the next page
