On Friday, February 20th, 2015, Karl Man from Fox 5 Vegas came out to our Jetpack America – Las Vegas location at
Lake Spring Mountain to do several live segments throughout their four-hour morning show and also to experience the wonders of jetpack flight.
During the show, there were seven 2-3 minute segments shot at the lake. The pre-dawn segments focused on the technology and the training, then Karl strapped
in for his first flight right after the sun came up over Spring Mountain. The remaining segments featured jetpack demonstrations by Jetpack America
– Las Vegas manager Chris Wilson, tandem jetpack flights by Jetpack America president Dean O’Malley and Scott Oscarson, who is the seven-year old son
of Spring Mountain Motorsports head of security Joel Oscarson. Karl also got a chance to fly two more times, so the audience got a chance to see how
quickly a first-timer can progress with just a bit of practice.
