That last bloke has to be at the head of the queue for an upcoming Darwin Award.
It's a toss-up whether he'll wipe himself out in spectacular fashion in the hoverbike first, or in the jet-powered go-kart.
I just love the lack of even any basic protective equipment, such as a helmet or a suit. I can't wait to see him strap a rocket to his back for faster performance.

I don't see much responsibility there, Ultralights. He's probably got a wife and kids, too - but whether they keep, or lose, their husband and father, obviously doesn't concern him too much.
Slightly off-topic, but saw a drone/helicopter at the AERO Friedrichshafen exhibition from Volocopter
It comes in 1, 2 and 4 seat versions., with internal and remote control !
I cannot discover what the battery endurance is though.

Jet karts are for wimps. Real men use jet bicycles.
The man is a mad genius!

I just love the way he eschews even basic body protection - but he always has to wear a tie!!
Ahh well, I guess he's the classic believer in the motto of madmen - "Live Fast, Die Young, have a Good-Looking Corpse"!
