Dude, that is so cool, I think you have made the Mando Product of the year. Excellent-excellent rocket boot.

Pointless, dangerous, and potentially illegal. This gets a big thumbs down from me.

I did a ton of research on model rockets before I even attempted to try this and I had a water hose and a fire extinguisher present during the test. I do not recommend anyone else try this. As far as being illegal, it falls into the category of model rockets and they are legal in the State of Georgia. Like I said, I did a lot of research before attempting this and I would recommend that if anyone ever tries anything as dangerous as this, LEARN ALL YOU CAN ABOUT IT BEFORE YOU TRY IT and always take safety precautions like a fire extinguisher, gloves and safety glasses. But, other than that, it was very, very fun. hehe

That is a riot. I like the projectile at the end LOL.

Model rockets are totally legal when they are being used as intended, but some states have laws prohibiting their misuse. Strapping one to your leg would qualify as misuse.

I guess I just don't understand the point. It doesn't look like a costume piece since it's just held on with a few straps. If you did wear it to a convention or a party or anything you wouldn't be able to use it anyway. I fail to see how this is cool. That's just my opinion, do whatever makes you happy. Just be safe and try to set a good example to the kids.
