<center> # Bike Booster Rocket *Originally published 2012-02-22 on [InvalidPatent.WordPress.com](https://invalidpatent.wordpress.com/2012/02/22/bike-booster-rocket/).* </center> {%youtube yx_S2r8l9nE %} This project evolved out of my need to invent an Iron-Man-esque suit, specifically the rockets on his feet and hands.  Here, I'm testing [butane](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butane "Butane") (lighter refill fluid) as a possible fuel, as it's cheaply and easily bought.  The combustion chamber is highly inefficient and barely works to provide a boost at all, it's more for the 3 foot flame jet shooting out the back of my bike as I'm going down the street. <center>     </center>
