    Real Jetpack Pilot Explains Extreme Risk, Stunts, & Mindset | Dan Schlund

    Fewer people have flown a hydrogen peroxide-powered rocket belt than have walked on the moon—and Dan Schlund is one of them. In this episode of the 5AM Podcast, host Michael Klassen sits down with stuntman, pyrotechnician, and real-life "Rocketman" Dan Schlund to explore what it really takes to strap 800 horsepower to your spine, face near-fatal crashes, and build a $10M+ business from the ground up. Dan breaks down the physics and intense pressure of flying a rocket belt 100 feet in the air with no parachute, zero room for error, and 800-degree steam blasting off his back. He opens up about a catastrophic world-record attempt crash that left him with a broken neck, severe burns, and crippling anxiety—and how he found the mental grit to strap the rocket back on a decade later to finish what he started. Beyond the stunts, Dan shares how he leveraged his high-risk experience as a paramedic to pivot in his 40s and found National Set Medics. Whether you are facing a major mid-life pivot, struggling with fear, or looking to build a resilient mindset, Dan’s actionable framework on risk and courage will shift how you view your limits. In this episode, we discuss:✅ The real tech behind rocket belts vs. jetpacks.✅ Flying in front of 400M people at the Pasadena Rose Parade with half a second of fuel left.✅ Why fear is information, not instruction. ✅ How to practice courage as a daily skill rather than a personality trait. ✅ Diagnosing his own broken neck on the crash pad. ✅ Pivoting mid-life to build a $10,000,000+ film set medical business. ✅ Why you should make decisions based on logic, not emotion.
