Why is the parallax so crazy?

What is the behind/top?

I'd love to know the answer. Also, turns out it's not a river but a "swoop pond":

I did.

www.jetman.com has more infos

But nothing on the actual jetpack, like how the engine works.

But here they actually fly next to a jet. So maybe it was those guys.

There's a how the engine works / is made video here https://youtu.be/oYpG0HDcFsA which I think is a similar model to the Jetcat P400 Wikipedia says the jetpack uses.
