I mean, as long as you had a long cord. Maybe with a line switch, so you could turn them on and off without having to reach down.

3. Make sure you use plenty of duct tape.
Secure them tight to your feet. No need for a line switch, just keep them in the 'on' position and they'll fire right up when you plug them into the extension cords.

For safety's sake, make sure they're pointing the same way on each foot.

4. They tried it on Jackass
It didn't work.. Too much torque.

Try bottle rockets taped to the skates.

6. Your pants will fall down but, other than that, it seems like a good idea.
