== Trivia ==
* Before [[Minecraft:firework rockets]] were given the ability to propel the [[Minecraft:elytra]] in [[Minecraft:16w50a]], a [[Minecraft:bow]] with the Punch enchantment was used to shoot the [[Minecraft:player]] mid-flight, so as to provide forward momentum and gain [[Minecraft:altitude]].
