Min "Advanced Learner's Dictionary" har bl.a. artiklen

 pull oneself up by one's (own) bootstraps (infml) to try to improve
 one's position in society by one's own efforts.

Den nævner ikke noget om vores eventyrlystne ven, men jeg skal dog
ikke kunne afvise, at udtrykket stammer derfra; i hvert fald er det
åbenbart _nu om dage_ et (mere eller mindre) almindeligt udtryk.
