I think the reason the jetpack never caught on is because the thought of being launched hundreds of feet into the air with nothing but a rocket on your back, well...most people would become terrified and then die an immediate and probably spectacular death

While a rocket belt could propel a screaming human to 60 mph in seconds, its fuel lasted for only about half a minute, "which led to more screaming," Wilson says.
