Finally found the source on that gif of the kid who gets slammed with backpacks.

Also, anyone else find it weird on Youtube that you'll watch a video in English but the related videos you'll get are in Russian and they'll all have like 7 million views?

Well, it's a slowed down version of the previous 5 seconds. It's not as if you can fly with a fire extinguisher, but I suppose if you jumped and fired it you may be propelled straight forward for about 2 seconds before immediately spinning and crashing.

The end for a start. Also, that fire extinguisher one has to be fake. How is it allowing him to hover, if it's parallel to the floor?

He crashes almost instantly. He doesn't hover so much as just shoots forward really fast.

I still don't buy it. No way has that thing got enough thrust to carry a fully grown man over 5-10ft, even if he did jump initially. How would you use that thing how it's meant to be used if it's capable of doing that? It'd simply blown you over.

It's bullshit, it's got to be.

Gopniks were the cold war Russian lower class, stereotypically known for squatting and drinking while wearing tracksuits. This dance has been referred to as gopstyle.

Maybe it's a bullet train and the guy just jumped when the train started to accelerate. In other words, the extinguisher was only there for show.

That barely looks like 5 feet.

Like, imagine a parabola.

He leaps foward with it blasting between his legs, it adds MAYBE a half second of airtime due to the initial burst, than arcs downwards.

Honestly, the entire thing is < 2 seconds. You can probably make a leap that lasts that long with enough momentum, i.e. a train or running start.

It didn't look parabolic, though. It didn't look like he made any effort to jump, either. Besides, the thrust created by the extinguisher would have only decreased the airtime, since it was venting at an angle above the horizontal.

Forgetting everything else, i just don't it would have that much power. Those extinguishers are designed to allow almost anyone to pick it up and use it. If it was capable of carrying a fully grown man, even for half a second, it would blow all but the heaviest man right off his feet trying to use it properly. I just don't but it at all.

But there is no way to be sure I guess!
