Who Wants Jet Boots? We Want Jet Boots!
By: BizarreNews	Published: 07/22/2000
MOSCOW - You would think these little gems came out of Japan, but the inventor of the world´s first gasoline-powered boots is Roman Kunikov, one of the professors at a prominent Russian engineering institute. The boots incorporate one-foot pistons that strap along the calf and fire downward after the wearer steps down, pushing a metal plate away from the bottom of the shoe - and the wearer up into the air. Tests have shown that wearers can achieve speeds of up to 25 mph. A person can move with significant jumps or strides, said Kunikov, there have not been any accidents so far.

How neat! (0 replies) started by carrolgugliotta (07.23.2000 2:11:32 PM EST) It is mind boggeling the leaps and strides of modern science. We shouldn't be so condencending to the inventor of these jet boots. Remember the first computer? The monitor was from a security camera, and nearly everyone stated, "Who would want or need one of these in their home?" Now look at where they are today. Bravo!

Typical (1 reply) started by anomaly (07.22.2000 4:46:58 PM EST) Only a SOCIALIST would waste the time and effort to create something useful only in space, when they can't afford to get to space because they can't embrace capitalism long enough to show a profit. This serves to reaffirm my faith in the power of Human stupidity.
