Rocket man flies to 8200ft in Switzerland
Talk about a dream come true right here!
Yves Rossy (shown in picture) is the world’s first man to fly with fitted jet-fuel powered wings strapped to his back.
Rossy stepped out of an aircraft at 7,500ft, unfolded the 10ft rigid wings strapped to his back as he plummeted earthwards.
Swooping and diving above the town of Bex in western Switzerland, the self-styled “Rocket Man” flew at 8,200ft for more than five minutes thanks to an 8ft jet-powered wing strapped to his back.
Amazing!
