If you’re looking to have one last summer party and happen to live in Germany and you and your friends want to have a great time trying not to die and/or auditioning for Jackass 3 then Designer/Businessman/Daredevil Jochen Schweizer has created something that’s perfect for you.

The AirKick® Water is essentially a water powered catapult for people. The passenger sits in the AirKick and then presses a button when they are ready to fly. 60 litres of water are then forced through a rocket nozzle under the seat which will launch people distances as far as 26 feet.

The rental length is 6 hours. No word on the price.
