You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.
JET MAN IS CRAZY.
It’s truly one of the coolest videos I have seen in a long long time.
Flying like a bat out of hell on rocket fuel.
This guy looks like Super Dave Osborne with wings.
He’s like a flying squirrel with rocket boosters.
This guy is literally is a human jet who can fly as fast as a jet, at some 125 miles an hour.
The man is flat out crazy, and not only does he fly through the sky, but he flies in formation along side real jet aircraft.
The video is out freakin rageous. The Swiss Alps as a backdrop, this crazy dude jumps out of a chopper and hits the switch.
The crazy switch.
And….ZOOOOOM.
The daredevil is Yves Rossy.
According to published reports, Mr. Rossy did a back flip out of a helicopter to launch himself.
That would have me soiling myself plenty for one day. Not Rossy.
Ignition, blast off.
This guy suddenly is swooping into formation with the Swiss version of the Blue Angels.
The 51 year old use to fly fighter jets with the Swiss Air Force. I guess that wasn’t enough. So now, after watching Iron Man, 500 times in a row, he has designed a human jet costume with a six and a half foot wing span and a jet pack with four engines.
According to published reports; Rossy is still the first man in the history of aviation to fly with a jet-propelled wing, a feat he first achieved in 2006.
I can see NASA asking this guy to fly their next mission to the stars.
Better yet, I bet the Pentagon is interested in a 6 foot fighter jet with testicles of steel and nerves like ice water.
Seal Team 6 watch out.
There’s a new Sheriff in town and his name is Rossy.
He’s crazy. Cool. But Crazy.
