I am sure you could rig something up with a camera mount, liveview and a trigger!

I just want one to play with!
 
Well yes, so do I :)
 
Not to sure what a crash helmet will do when you are falling from the sky with that straped to your back :lol:
 
The helmet should leave just enough of your face in tact for identification purposes in the morgue.
 
I remember something similar 20+ years ago at the US olympics, a guy in a jetpack took off from the middle of the stadium.

Yes they have been used a few times like that but the jet fuel lasts for about 20 seconds and is very dangerous!
