Yves Rossy's flown across the English Channel since that video was made: and other folks are developing personal flight technology, too. The Lemming doesn't think that the flying belts of the Jetsons are all that likely - not any time soon.
On the other hand, there are recreational and practical applications that just about guarantee that we'll see more of these things in the next few years.
