Man flies through London with rocket on his back

A man dressed as a Spartan warrior has used a Jetpack to fly through central London.

The scene was set up to promote the launch of a new video game.

Onlookers joined a crowd of snappers in Trafalgar Square as the man lifted off into the sky before landing beside two others in costumes.

The stunt, organised by XBOX 360 to promote their Halo Reach game, lasted less than a minute.
