Devices which are strapped on to the body to allow an individual to take flight. Recently some hurdles have been cleared in making way for working models. Strap yourselves in, if interested.

I'm working on a rocket belt.

The main barriers you sorta run into with this technology is finding spare parts for the tanks and a source of peroxide.

I sorta fixed both: the fuel tank they used on the original one by bell is a D-2 oxygen cylinder repainted, they're 5k new and 200$ on eBay.

The peroxide problem I sorta solved from two approaches, you get a concentrator for solvent extraction (rottavap) and buy the 50% stuff.

The second one is you can burn a fuel like a hydrocarbon in an "afterburner" but it takes a sparkplug under 70% since the vaporization enthralpy on the water is eating your temp to under 200C
