From sub-aquatic cars to 'invisible' breathing apparatus, James Bond has used many gadgets to sneak up on enemies underwater.
Now there's an underwater jetpack that wouldn't look out of place in the fictional spy's arsenal of devices, that lets you soar beneath the waves faster than an Olympic swimmer.
The gadget comprises a backpack containing a battery and two high power thrusters worn on the arms, to propel the wearer along at up to six mph (10km/h).

It says the x2 Sport is a ‘wearable propulsion system that revolutionises the underwater experience bringing the adrenalin of action sports to the underwater world, enabling you to explore the ocean with the power and grace of a dolphin’.
It’s powered by a lithium battery in a backpack that a wearer can strap onto their back.
Two Hydra thrusters containing digital motors are attached to their forearms using neoprene cuffs.

These generate thrust to propel them through the water, saving them the effort of swimming so they can go deeper or further without expending lots of energy.
X2 SPORT UNDERWATER JETPACK
Comprises: Battery backpack and two thursters.
Weight: 2.2 lbs (5kg) in the water
Top speed: 6mph (10km/h
Battery: 24ah, lasting one hour
Cost: $2,000 (£1,292)
The firm says: ‘Guiding yourself through the water is a breeze; all you have to do is point your arms where you want to go.
‘This action vectors the thrust and the x2 propels you in the new direction.’
Wearers can control the speed of the x2 Sport using a throttle grip that’s attached to them.
The gadget has a top speed of six mph (10km/h) which is quicker than Michael Phelps, the fastest human in water, who swam 200 metres in one minute 42.96 seconds at an average speed of 1.94 meters/second or 4.34mph in 2008.
