No way! They did that on mythbusters and it was a total flop. How did they get this one to work? It appeared to be no different....

I know, I saw the mythbusters one too. Maybe more pressure? I thought maybe it was a hoax, but the shots towards the end of him close up seem real.

It's fake, it didn't look right when he was in the air. It looked like like something off camera was lifting him.

Yeah, it looks like it is fake. This seems to be the video myth busters was testing. Pretty good job of it though!
