Annals of Achievement–RocketMan: American stuntman Eric Scott set a new world record this week, by propelling himself to an altitude of 152 feet with a jetpack. He was in the air for just 26 seconds but managed to throw in a few pirouettes before landing without even a minor bruise. Scott has more than 500 rocket flights to his credit and got his start flying over the stage during the Michael Jackson tour in 1992 (hmm, that gig is definitely over for 5-10 years). Scott’s next flight will take place this July, over the Brazilian jungle. Why? Who knows? Softer landing, maybe….
