A young man flew into action when he and his family saw a boat go up in smoke.

In Minnesota, 22-year-old Jesse Gavic put his flyboarding skills to the test as he flew over the smoking boat and doused it with water.

Featuring jetpack like characteristics, the flyboard shows us a glimpse of the future. The rider is propelled into the air by water jets underneath the board which is connected to a hose.

Gavic participated in the 2014 Flyboard World Championship in Dubai, a competition that began in 2012.
