IF - Speed

A large crowd has gathered on this partly clouded day to see what has been promoted as the greatest stunt of all time. As Double Dare straps on his jet-pack his wife and pups wave to him from the grandstand which has been roped off at a safe distance. "Why did I let Salty talk me into this again?" Somehow his manager is always able to convince Double Dare into one "last" stunt. Salty promised this one is to be last-last ever, and if this cheap amy surplus jet fuel explodes it just might be. The count down begins. "I love you Mitsie" the words are drowned out by the jet pack's roars, but she can still read his lips through the smoke. Double Dare waves to the crowd, and gives Salty the thumbs up before flipping down his blast shield. Five.. four.. three.. two.. late to back out now.. one.. BLAST OFF!!
