Swiss pilot Yves "Fusion Man" Rossy, the first man in the world to fly under a jet-fitted wing, jumps from a plane through the air in Bex, Switzerland, Wednesday, May 14, 2008. Some people go fishing on their day off. Yves Rossy likes to jump out of a small plane with a pair of jet-powered wings and perform figure eights above the Swiss Alps. The revolutionary human flying machine comes after five years of training and many more years of dreaming.

This is just way too cool. I'd be scared to try it, but it looks like a hell of a lot of fun.

What the fuck is this doing here in this forum? I was hoping to see Yves crash into a mountain.

Yeah, I wanted someone to leave on jet-wing and know they weren't coming back again.
