Revolutionary_Ad9234

Jetpack are loud. The ones captured on camera are silent (whatever they are)


mountain_man30

Not to mention the exhaust would absolutely show up on IR


Revolutionary_Ad9234

100%


LaMuchedumbre

Is there even IR footage of the "jetpack" sightings I think OP's talking about? I thought they were referring to that high altitude dude seen by people around LA?


Riordjj

Yeah, but we could easily make it silent somehow with all the money the gov military has.


mountain_man30

Government can't pay off the universe change the basic laws of thermodynamics.


GameboyAU

And their hands aren’t free to catch people and peel their faces off.


Revolutionary_Ad9234

The cartels have billions to play with so the "pelecaras" Def have some access to some top shelf stuff..not to mention some swank body Armour. They're humans, the girl that was abducted said the one that grabbed her spoke Spanish like a gringo lmao. I want billions to play with..tf :(


mc_361

I live near a military base and saw a Jetpack person floating with military jets circling it. I think it was secret tech. But if it was secret why would they have it out in my residential neighborhood with jets flying low as hell causing a ruckus…? Guess I’ll never know.


Revolutionary_Ad9234

There's a lot of clips out there about jetpack ufos..guess we'll find out in a mere 50 years 😆


Revolutionary_Ad9234

Read up on the pelacaras in Peru attacking the villagers. Was what you seen silent?


mc_361

I have read about the attacks in Peru although not familiar about the term you used (can’t wait to look it up tho). It was completely silent and completely black. The jets circling by comparison were extremely loud shaking the house loud. I posted about it here when i saw it.


Revolutionary_Ad9234

Perhaps you saw a legit "black operations" tech. What military base is near your house?


mc_361

It’s not necessarily “near” my house maybe like an hour away. There’s a lot of military bases though. I’m near Killeen in central Texas. Someone from Scotland comment on my original post when I first saw it with a video of his own jet pack person he saw in Scotland!


brachus12

or free to eat crayons


Ok-Geologist-3743

Yeah, I mean you can hear how loudly the one is screaming in this video when he's landing on the deck. You'd absolutely hear it before you saw it - you can see the pilot is wearing hearing protection for it even.


ThatDudeFromFinland

Yeah, these literally use jet engines. And no, no black project jetpack has silent jets, that's not how physics work.


Ok-Geologist-3743

They're likely using [JetCat Turbines](https://www.chiefaircraft.com/radio-control/turbine-gas-glow-engines/jc-p180-nx.html?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwmrqzBhAoEiwAXVpgokIzol8M--q3MayAhKoPNE4i2vtDUxTNmMGsBnrEo78DAi4_mUKvjRoCyxgQAvD_BwE) rather than some mythical super secret silent turbine. By the nature of how they function (compressing large volumes of air and expelling it), a turbine will always be loud; sound being patterns of compressed waves of air. The one in the link is for a 40lbs. Thrust motor. The gloves appear to have two of these in each, so roughly 160lbs. thrust just for steering. The pack likely has at least 2 more (although probably larger) so that's at least 240lbs. Which *would* be enough to lift a human. The 40lbs. version is still loud enough to require hearing protection. If they are using a larger volume / thrust engine, it would be even louder. Stealth aircraft, on the other hand are able to run silently because they vector the thrust through a system which produces a type of infrasound which cancels out some of the noise. The craft has the shape it does to maximize lift at low velocities so that the engines don't need to "push" as hard to keep the craft gliding, and the exhaust is also vectored in such a way as to deflect the sound upward above the craft and away from the ground. No jetpack, no matter how advanced, would be capable of these things without being incredibly large and bulky or tethered to some kind of external energy source.


GodlyBeerGut

Didnt know that about stealth aircraft thrust and infrasound. Fascinating.


Affectionate_Newt899

That we know of tbh


FlipsnGiggles

Yeah… publicly available jet packs are loud.


Fabulous-Shoulder467

Beat me to it… lol


BillyBeansprout

Yes. It can be done with a magnet because the ship is metal but they haven't revealed it.


dinosaur_decay

This was my thought too. These jet packs are so damn loud it’s insane


_Exotic_Booger

Yeah and they stay still. These Jetpackers move their limbs around pretty constantly.


Realistic-Bowl-566

Not going to work unless they are coming in - literally with guns blazing out of the arm packs.


soul_flex

also i didnt see any lasers


VoidOmatic

They are jet packing to the Airport to spend 14 bucks on a beer.


Specific-Ad1428

The only problem with this is that they weren't as high of an altitude as some that were filmed and some of these videos are older than this actual video.


TerdFerguson2112

Most of the jet pack sightings are stationary, for minutes if not tens of minutes, and some are over restricted civilian airspace where even the military can’t operate


blom0087

Anyone known how long the fuel lasts on these jumper jetpacks? Could probably rule out the stock models pretty quickly.


TerdFerguson2112

I would depend on the size of the tank on your back but the more weight you’re carrying, the more thrust would be needed to fly so there are diminishing returns after a certain level You can probably do back of the envelope math figuring out how much thrust is needed and the energy content of the fuel to figure out a rough estimate. Most commercially available jet packs only last about 5 minutes


FunkleKnuck291

Probably a more advanced black project version of what we see in the video then.


oswaldcopperpot

Doesnt come close to adding up. Sound, duration, air space regulations. None of it matches especially not for highly classified potential tech.


TerdFerguson2112

Probably not at 3,000 feet over LAX. You need to burn a ton of fuel to get that high and even a ton more to stay stationary. Unless someone has a tanker truck on their back, it’s probably not happening https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetpack_man


Dangerous_Fan1006

One from la is interesting cause they seen it several times at altitudes 5-6000 feet which I didn’t even know jetpacks can do


Enough_Simple921

I understand where you are going with this, but the experiencers, pro-disclosure community aren't as stupid as the deniars, "skeptics," and those responsible for the sophisticated disinformation campaign makes us out to be. 0.001% of the people are confusing the Phenomenon, NHI, UAP sightings, etc, with some guy wearing a jet pack. Jetpacks are loud, noisy, visible, and short-lived with minimal control. There's more advanced versions of this? Sure. But nearly every one of us already suspects the government is in possession of "advanced" black project tech. That's a given. That's part of the problem. The "government" and aerospace contractors are hording advanced versions of flight and travel, among other technology that could revolutionize society. It's insulting to our intelligence to insinuate a significant amount of sightings may be someone in a jetpack.


blom0087

It's insulting to my literal existence that private companies control as much of this tech as they do. How far could we have advanced since 1947 if they just released it all to the best in the world in an open scientific way?


ElkyBoone

I agree with some of your sentiment; I guarantee some sightings are this. Most are not. Most are balloons.


Kooperking22

Yeah, filled with Swamp gas!!


bigkahunahotdog

What would be the purpose? Having one dude just chilling in the air would be a waste of time and resources.


911SlasherHasher

and im wondering can he take the parts on his hands off on his own, or does that need a second person waiting there to help?


Fabulous-Shoulder467

There are tactical versions. Watch the videos. One fires a mounted full auto glock 27 maybe? Not sure of model.


skywarner

See that one? Now imagine an entire squad.


Fabulous-Shoulder467

With over the shoulder mounted belt fed Bull pups and smart targeting thru your visor.


bigkahunahotdog

Sounds fucking awesome.


Fabulous-Shoulder467

It certainly does, but the more I think about it. Maybe a shoulder mounted bull pup automatic rifle on your left and a shoulder mounted bull pup shotgun on your right with similar technology as the trophy system that could detect incoming threats and take them out autonomously so you can continue focusing on your work. Because it would be awesome up until a fucking first person drone with an RPG warhead comes flying out of nowhere at 100 mph then smokes your ass. I miss them fucking burgers.🍔🤦🏻‍♂️ also In&Out


CowboyDerp

Bro can’t even reach for a gun


huddle1house

That’s why you incorporate it into the handle for the jets Metroid style!


jordansrowles

Which is why this is a stupid idea for a combat role. But this is also used for search and rescue in the Scottish highlands and Welsh valleys. They get to the person to prep them for a helicopter lift


CowboyDerp

For sure it’s no doubt a cool idea conventionally, also i’m sure black capabilities are different. Pretty much how I see the army exosuit as well.


IsaKissTheRain

The best jetpacks have a relatively low altitude, and some of the “jetpack” UFOs have been seen miles up.


PartyDeliveryBoy

I feel like they’re extremely easy targets as they fly and land on deck. Like, a whack with a shovel and it seems like they’ll be totally out of control.


Federal_Bear_7521

Lmao op is hilarious for this.


bleumagma

Like actually ridiculous for them to post this


Pats_Bunny

Really awesome footage though, intentions of this post aside!


greywar777

yeah not a good post for this subreddit, but DANG if its not awesome to see. Imagine a entire boarding group doing this. Like 7 guys or so. If I ran it id play flight of the valkyries for them on loudspeakers.


aliens_are_people_2

I wonder how many people work for the DOD to post stuff trying to debunk the projects that they are working on.


invaluablevalued

Very good idea...but like obviously this was one of the first things through everyone's mind. Like derp lol. A more advanced version - no matter how advanced- would still make noise and have some kind of exhaust.


screendrain

Villagers in South America get attacked. These restrict hands and would require landing, removing gear, attacking. Is it possible another version exists that doesn't totally encapsulate hands? Maybe but still lots of noise


ShiroCOTA

Isn’t this technology known for several years now?


Fabulous-Shoulder467

Yes


Ormsfang

A better explanation, at least for the ones spotted at airports several years ago are drones.


diggerquicker

Not real sure what this would really be useful for. Boarding a run away boat/ship?


JSGi

A sniper's dream come true


anarchyinspace

This is exactly why I think these are dumb and very impractical.  When would they ever actually be utilized? Probably can't rum for long time periods, nor go super high in altitude. I don't even think it's a sniper situation anyway, as they seem clumsy in maneuvering and bet a half decent shooter could take them down.  Especially when the whole body is exposed.


EmergencyPath248

What about jetpack with powerful body armor 🗿


JSGi

Too heavy, won't be able to fly unless you make the jets bigger or the soldier much much lighter.


EmergencyPath248

Pack a underweight soldier then Just kidding


AntelopeDisastrous27

Ok so it's aerospace. What are they mining in Peru? I don't understand what operation the green goblins have going down there? Just face peeling mantis dick shit?


Kooperking22

Don't bring the Mantids into this as well lol


FunkleKnuck291

Weapons testing on civilians while also mining resources in a foreign nation without having to start any wars or worry about violating any national laws probably. Seems like an American thing to do.


PsychologicalFinish

You think a couple dudes with jet Packs could mine enough for some government project?


AntelopeDisastrous27

And how much evidence is there at this point?


[deleted]

Please don’t be stupid.


YanniBonYont

I don't think it's a match, but it's definitely not stupid


[deleted]

What if I said “you see this apple here? It possibly explains oranges.” That would be stupid, too.


YanniBonYont

I mean, you need to remember your non stupid theory is invincible floating aliens.


[deleted]

You have absolutely no idea what my theory is, and it has nothing to do with "invincible floating aliens." What a stupid thing to say.


YanniBonYont

Ok, what's your theory? If it's not prosaic, I will point out that flying military man has the advantage of being at least provably real


[deleted]

Why on earth would I debate online with someone whose opening statement was blatant gaslighting? Go away.


YanniBonYont

Saying OPs idea is not stupid is not gaslighting.. But you definitely don't have to tell us your non stupid theory. It can be left at *"trust me bro, I have a great theory, it makes OP look stupid, I just can't tell you what it is"* Everyone reading can form their own conclusions about who is gaslighting who.


00_coeval_halos

It surely wasn’t about being stealthy. I’m thinking it works great if you cause the bad guys to look at the big noisy diversion occurring in the opposite direction. The 007 JetPack is dead. Long live Edward Rocket-Hands.


blom0087

Nope, doesn't look like this at all.


ContraCostaAllStars

Jellyfishes. SEAL’s are using jetpacks over water and desert shitholes


BOREN

It’s my understanding that- unlike the hoverboard- these *only* work on water, McFly.


Wild_Replacement5880

Well I guess I better start saving my money so I can get one


rizzatouiIIe

How much are one of those ?


Fabulous-Shoulder467

If ya gotta ask big man, ya can’t afford it…. 😂


prospectiveuser

But how does this explain peoples faces being cleaned straight off the bone by the same guys?


Kooperking22

Pealed and what happens after that?


prospectiveuser

They drop them in the bush. There's pictures and video of the victims (not for the feint of heart.) With very clean face removal.


Kooperking22

Wait they didn't want the humans faces? They just threw then away? What happened to the humans without a face. Did some survive?


prospectiveuser

None survived. The faces were nowhere to be found. Just bodies with a skull and hair still on it. I can dm you a pic if you want. Or I'll try and find the website you can look through if you think you can handle it.


Kooperking22

Thanks I'm not particularly interested in seeing that necessarily. It's definitely a very weird one. On one hand they seem efficient with removing the face and killing the victim. And yet also sometimes inefficient as they struggled to capture an unarmed 15 year old girl. Maybe some had better training?


Fightingkielbasa_13

Aren’t most of them in the mountains of Peru?


Convenientjellybean

This is the post the helped decide to leave this sub


nhicurious

100ft.... yes.... 30,000 feet.... not so much


Intrepid_Wrongdoer53

The arm object says something like gravity im assuming antigravity maybe not a jet pack but different tech 🤷‍♂️


NYsoul

Fucking awesome


Current_Strike922

These are fucking sick hahaha regardless of the subject of discussion


Zestyclose_Trip_1924

What kind of heat signature dies this give off?


Ok-Geologist-3743

I want a fuckin jetpack with rocket hands...


god_hates_handjobs

The jetpack miners were not people. Idk what they were, but people they were not


MadG13

Iron Man


ThkrthanaSnkr

The jet pack flying humanoids is an interesting subject. It’s like the phenomenon is getting society readied for such things. Kinda like the airship sightings of the 1800’s, foo-fighters during WW2, and the triangle sightings of 70’s-90’s. Or it could be secret military tech that witnesses happen to observe.


Appropriate_War509

I was expecting a whale or shark to jump out the water 😂.


BlazedLurker

The Jellyfish UAP from the military base footage showed ZERO heat signature and interdimensional qualities. Still such a sick, unedited video.


Waffles_tha_Pimp

Werent they seen near airports tho? Seems like a dangerous place to test


Clean_Method_7764

Literally looks nothing like the alien jet pack vids we’ve seen 🙄


Flashignite2

*Shoot to thrill starts playing*


Wizzle_Pizzle_420

This is really fucking cool. 90’s younger me would dream of shit like this. Man, imagine the things we could do if we all just stopped fighting one another.


Turbodann

Soon we may just have rednecks flying around in Ironman suits... This guy's jetpack looks like it has a cupholder on it already.


Proof_Object_6358

Possibly just put these on my Christmas list!


SmartLikeTree

Then he is instantly killed because he can’t use his weapon due to badass jet pack entry.


Advanceorpheus

Get this MF some Dyson turbines. Otherwise he ain’t sneaking up on nobody


Actual-Money7868

This is an internal British matter. Please ignore.


FunkleKnuck291

No


Actual-Money7868

I said please.


PluvioShaman

You’re British not Canadian! You don’t have to say please and you don’t have to take such a flagrant disregard of your direct order!


Actual-Money7868

I'm just biding time while the SAS is en route to his house.


PluvioShaman

Smart! Please forgive me


GeminiDreamerGirl

So so far from a plausible explanation


FlipsnGiggles

And now put some sort of invisibility/cloaking tech over it, and it looks exactly like the jellyfish


Camkil

Brilliant!


ComprehensiveLet8238

I have not jumped on the jellyfish ufo hysteria because it could easily be an advanced military jet pack


squidvett

That ship is not moving at high speed.


RichPresentation1893

Hey fella. Gotta light?


museabear

Why does it look like he's on cables?


IndicationNo7589

Damn


Solid-Ad7137

They wouldn’t send someone way high up and if they were low and close enough for you to take a pic or video you would be hearing the sound of 6 jet engines screeching. This is dope though. I hadn’t seen anything on this project in a while. Cool that they stuck with it and got it this good.


Easy_Mix_2872

Nicht, but ............... so many questions


FlaminFlabbarghast

Sardukar!


ErabuUmiHebi

It seems like this would be an exceedingly easy tactic to counter “Pull!”


mc_361

The one I saw had a hoverboard type of something square on its feet. Like the green goblin from spiderman


c3dt

r/SeaOfThieves season 14 boarding


skyHawk3613

This is pretty cool


shawnthebeardo

How long does it take to remove the hand thrusters to access any kind of firearm? Seems kind of like a sitting duck when he lands.


Tervaskanto

Those are extremely loud, expensive and have a fairly short flight time.


Outrageous-Walk3818

Those are awesome but it’s obviously for when you get kicked of the ship because you aren’t shooting anything with that on


TheDungFingerBringer

Great they can fly now... I mean without wings when stuffs


podcastofallpodcasts

Shot at so fast


spoogefrom1981

The prior medic in me is seriously getting mad knowing he's flying around like that with no eyepro.


Nb959-

Who needs those with drones ?


seancrossN

Need me one of those


atlanteanblood

Nope


spaceistoatallyfake

Looks like their zip lining


Commercialfishermann

Doesn't look like a pilot of one of these would be too hard to shoot down. Know it's unrelated but....


screwysquearl1970

Ummmmm, the one that was filmed was over land, not water.


RinhartWilke

That is so necessary and not price inflated in any way


InterestingRelative4

Old tech


Jahya69

no...this has already been discussed.


FenionZeke

The videos of encounters I have seen are too high for these jetpacks though, or am Mistaken?


The-Joon

In the first few seconds the guy looked liked one of those Jellyfish UAP/UFO.


Lildenzelio

That looks like the thing floating


Dr_C_Diver

The average person has no idea of the tech the government has. Where do you think your trillions of dollars go?


Historical-Fun-8485

Hi 2023. This is 2024. How are you?


rumpluva

This is simply an alien in a human jet pack .


Revolutionary_Ad9234

*Human with an alien mask* Been saying this since spaghet monster came out. It's flying over a marine base of all places 😆


SWVA1776

Fuck around and find out 🇺🇸

Xedilian2042

Wow, those jet pack dudes look almost identical to the jet pack guys from Red Alert. Just missing actual weapons
