Sky Surfing
An Australian man has become the world's first hang-glider to perform aerobatics through dangerous "Morning Glory" clouds above the Gulf of Carpentaria. "It was the best moment of my life — but it could have been the scariest as well ... it’s like a tsunami in the sky," said 28-year-old Jon Durand. The formation of the "Morning Glory" clouds, which can stretch up to 1km-long, has continued to baffle scientists. The cloud blasts air upwards at its face, generating extreme lift, while the wind at the middle and end shudders downwards at 457m a minute.  ·  · |
