That raises even more questions.

What type of jetpack is it? What sort of fuel does it use? Who made it?

Why would miners need jetpacks? Why can't I have a jetpack? They promised me flying cars and we don't have them yet it's bullshit.

I'm pretty sure you can get a jetpack nowadays if you have enough money. I have no idea if it's legal to use it though.

Also flying cars is a stupid concept. And we have had the better equivalent for ages, they are called helicopters. And you can also get an actual flying car nowadays if you have enough money...
