An American Airlines pilot flying into Los Angeles International Airport on Sunday evening placed an unusual call into the control tower after allegedly spotting a 'guy in a jetpack' flying alongside the plane.

At an altitude of 3,000ft, the aircraft was about ten miles out from the airport when the confused pilot spotted the jetpack about 300 yards to the left of his window.

The sighting was confirmed by a second pilot but as yet, nobody has come forward with an explanation.

"Listen, I am running low on sleep, but I think I just saw a Stark Enterprise jetpack attached to a guy at 3k feet."

ETA: Even as a kid watching this movie, I never understood how his legs didn't burn off.
