- twtmc, on 10/12/2007, -7/+54The only reason he didn't want to fly on planes anymore is cuz of all the ***** snakes on them.
- pathy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+21Falling, with style.
- dtd00d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15Reminds me of that Discovery Channel commercial where that guy straps some wings to his back and "flies" off a bridge over a river, to everyone's amazement. "He can fly!" "He's flying!" they say, except for one old man who looks back and says, "but can he swim?"
- Xinareiaz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13No, he can gain altitude. that is flying
- wstrucke, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10duplicate comment. was posted 10,000,000,000 times already.

{/real link} - heyitsme23, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6it says 115 mph, not 515 mph.
- Tranziq, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7ok that is just neat
- drummerjed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Did he consult HG2G?
- foofightrs777, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss
- EternalDarkWing, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"I'm an albatross. I'm an albatross. I'm flap, flap, flapping my albatross wings. Flap, flap, flapping my albatross wiiiiiings!"
- rkuchiki, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Within 5 minutes after trying.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5In further news... Saddam flies for .07 seconds. More at eleven.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Love the description.
- ShaneApex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Man, what would happen if you had a birdstrike cruising around strapped into that thing
- vlait, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Rocket boots ftw
http://www.yourdailymedia.com/media/1131718624 - soogy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The title is even better. You don't need a plane to fly, you can just use a helicopter.
- theotherme, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Actually it is a plane, the "cockpit" just happens to be a harness instead of a seat.
- film42, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I don't mean to sound negative, but the title should be "Man flies with wings!"
- yahoofrom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I want video!!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1stupid spell check, i meant to say lift not "life"
- rowanjl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1So by your logic, when a bird falls of a branch and flaps its wings to gain altitude, it isn't flying?
- djalterego, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Awesome! Where do I buy my wings?
- barkerja, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This is great, where can we get one!?
- Niro, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Sorry to say that this is old.... this guy has been doing this for a while i actually saw him for the first time about 2 years ago, but he still get's my Digg !!!
- l0tharnt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Amazing to say the least...I want one!
- Oculus, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Link to video on his site. www.jet-man.com/actuel.html
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1dude... your logic makes no sence LOL!!
how do u expect him to take off from the ground by him self?
Flying isn't defined by your ability to take off, its defined by the time your total life is greater than your total weight. - wstrucke, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3don't think anyone actually got the 'joke', or a least it wasn't funny
- Xinareiaz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lol, now all he needs is 2 more on each foot and he might achieve vertical takeoff. Although he would need some better way too hold the fuel...too bad kerosene isn't compressible eh?
- michael1406, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"I ain't gettin' on no plane!"
"No need."
"I pity...me." - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Shouldn't this guy used some old Iron Maiden for the video? After all they did have a song "The Flight Of Icarus"
http://allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:d72vad4kv8w8 - Xinareiaz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Why buy one when you can just custom make the thing out of carbon fiber for $150,000!? /sarcasm
It's cool though how he used those jet engines...People have done a lot of cool things with those, like the rocket boots posted a little higher up, some guys in Sweden strapped a pair of the things to a bike and went cruseing down the road...The sad thing is the engines cost something like $3,500 a piece. http://www.jetcatusa.com/ they sell them - kevinarth, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Don't know, but I'd give my left nut to have one of those!
- r3becca, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I agree.
Impressive but where do you draw the line. Take off the engines and make the wings a bit bigger and you have a hang glider.
I'll be really impressed when someone straps jets to their feet and manages to maintain horizontal flight using just his/her body to create lift. - sufferwell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm watching this guy on Discovery Channel Europe right now, I really hope to do that one day...
The guy nearly died once flying BTW - dtd00d, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2...or the second or the third. Read the comments before you post exactly what's been said above.
- reknaps, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1They're turbine engines
- Infekted, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2wasn't this posted a while ago. and that other one was link to a video.
and wuts up with the description...
"Plane? I don't need no stinking plane!"
how do you think he got up there? - dtd00d, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1How soon before you die?
- GilbertZ, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0One of the Network Jewelers on our site has been building a rocket too. Van Graff. He made it to Popular Science. I googled popsci but the pages aren't coming out right. I'm going to find a valid page and submit it to Digg. OK done: http://digg.com/videos/educational/Pictures_of_the_RocketMan
- WallnutBoy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Haha.. Thats pretty awesome!
Kevinarth.. you'd seriously give your left nut?! o.O Lol well I know I wouldn't! :p - m1th, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I had my "The Departed" soundtrack in the background so I turned off the actual audio in that clip and man... watching him fly with that music in the background was perfect.
I HAVE to try this before I die. - lpmusix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1dupe...
- bcimhe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0one word, "jealous".
- KamikazeeDriver, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2This was posted last week on digg, to a video link.
- grampajoe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Sorry, but that's still a plane.
- nubnub, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2this was on digg before
- P5ycHo, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1In accurate. He's falling.
Yes he can gain altitude, but he could never take off. - swaters, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0The idea is great, the guy is brilliant but the writing is terrible!
The author needs to go read a book on how to write for people over 6 years of age. -
