Jet pack pilot flies across 1,500-foot-wide canyon

A daredevil wearing a jet pack has flown across a 1,500-foot-wide canyon in southern Colorado.

The stunt's sponsors says Eric Scott took 21 seconds to cross the Royal Gorge at 75 mph on Monday and that he didn't use a parachute while flying across the 1,100-foot-deep canyon.

He was wearing a jet pack powered by hydrogen peroxide and developed for stunts, promotions and other events.
