Man Flies Like A Bird Over The Alps With Jet-Propelled Wings.

Posted by Venus in BLOGGER, BLOGROLL, CREATIVITY, CULTURE, DESIGN, VISUAL

Swiss Pilot Yves Rossy became the first man in the world to fly with jet-propelled wings. He demonstrated his talent in Bex, Switzerland, the four jet turbines enabled him to achieve a 186 mph, which is about 65 mph faster than a typical skydiver jumping & he uses only his body to change position in the air. Yves Rossy has spent 5 years training for this & finally he fulfilled his dream. Its said that so far Rossy & his sponsors, which includes a Swiss watch company Hublot, have poured more than $285,000 & many hours of work into building the device. Its to be seen when & how much would this device cost should it ever be brought into market.
