You may recognize this man as the host of Discovery’s Dirty Jobs. Flyboarding? A dirty job? Quite the opposite. Mike’s newest show Somebody’s Gotta Do It features innovators, entrepreneurs, and odd hobbies. Aquatic Aviation was the first Flyboard rentals and sales company in the United States, founded by Paul Bulka. Mike wanted to meet the person who paved the way to bring this awesome sport to the U.S. and give Flyboarding a try.

The episode begins with Mike asking Paul how he wound up in this strange sport. Paul was determined to start up his own business and moved out to California with a few friends to pursue that dream. When his business partner dropped out, Paul dream only grew bigger. Now, Aquatic Aviation is one of the most reputable Flyboarding companies and dominating in SEO.

Once the guys made their way down to the water, Paul gave Mike a little demo. There were more questions than answers by the end of it. “What the hell is that?” “How does it get its power?” Once Mike was geared up, Paul gave him a few minutes of instruction and the two were off into the bay. Mike did great! The usual falls at the beginning, but he was able to hold his own and even do some dolphin dives by the end.
