Well, it seems that the future is finally and indisputably here. Last week, during IMTS 2022 at the McCormick Place convention center in Chicago, Inventor and Founder of Gravity Industries Richard Browning demonstrated a real-life jetpack that looks and works similarly to the one from GTA San Andreas and countless other games.
Developed by Gravity Industries, the jetpack, or to be more specific, a jet suit, allowed the inventor to soar nearly two meters above the ground for around a minute-and-a-half, performing jet-boosted jumps and achieving a formidable speed along the way. Moreover, according to Richard, the suit is almost entirely 3D printed and can easily be further updated in the future.
Here's the demonstration captured from a different angle:
