I'm recording it to watch later, so no spoilers please!
The guy is amazing.
Yves Rossy.
Swiss airline pilot.
If he ever decides to market these things, I'm getting one to add to the Segway.
I like my gadgets.

Just watching this now and some of the pictures are cracking. Personally I think he's off his tits strapping a wing and 4 jet engines to his back but good luck to him. There just seems too much that could go wrong!

It wasn't the first launch of the Shuttle and I can't remember if as a toddler I watched the moon landings but in a small way this was what it must have been like

Great television.
