I don’t think there’s a red-blooded male alive who didn’t escape the ’70s without dreaming of one day wearing a jet pack in the ’90s. Blame Gilligan’s Island, blame Brave New World, blame Ray Bradbury, blame everything and anything that painted out our future to be a sleek, metallic silver, space-age dream. Instead, all we got was the Enterweb. (Hey, that sounds like a nifty T-shirt: “I made it to the future and all I got was this lousy Facebook page.”) Anyway, while I remain here mourning the fact I have yet to be handed a one-piece silver jumpsuit to wear while using my teleportation pod, just sit right back and watch this clip, this clip of a fateful trip, that started with a janky rocket pack and … well, you’ll just have to come back for the rest tonight on MTV with the all-new episode of Nitro Circus at 10:00pm ET/PT. Deja vu?

Prior to cutting to the taser chase that day at the SWAT training camp (actually, I don’t think it was SWAT per se, but I can’t remember exactly what it was … must have been something official, though, seeing as they had all the cool non-consumer grade toys), the cast of Nitro Circus had to first go through some really basic steps. And by basic, I mean like playing with BB guns. Okay, semi-automatic BB guns, but still. Those orange-red muzzle tips really drag down the gnar-gnar factor. Anyway, come along as Rick Kosick shows you some of the stuff you didn’t see (as well as some stuff you did see) during this segment when it aired on “Nitro City“, the debut second season episode of Nitro Circus.
