Scott, also known as "Rocket Man," performed the
21-second-long feat at Lake San Cristobal in southern Colorado
on Tuesday.
Although jet packs have existed for decades now, Scott's stunt
highlights how the gadget's technology has evolved.
In 2011, Scott used a rocket pack powered by hydrogen peroxide
to deliver the game ball at a University of Michigan football
game in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
Scott labeled his most recent stunt as the "coolest thing" he
has ever experienced.
"The best way I can describe it is to imagine the dramatic
change in environment - from water, to air, to land, all while
strapped to an insanely powerful machine," said Scott. "It was
awesome."
