Default Jetman - RC Jet Powered Hang Glider

This probably isn't the right place for this, but I thought it was really neat and deserved to be seen by all RC enthusiast.

I came across this website today and was amazed to find a man who has built a carbon fiber wing which he straped himself and 4 Jetcat RC turbine engines too then jumps out of an airplane, flys, then lands with a parachute.

Check out the links my description cannot do it any justice.

<span style="font-size: medium"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman">That is the ultimate in flight, Talk about taking RCFlight to a different and higher deminsion! WOW! Iwould love to be able to do that! Very cool every time Iwatch it Iam more amazed at it. I just wonder how he got the nerve to take the first flight? Iknow he has the parachute but still having a four rockets strapped to your back is a whole different game!!! Who here would not want to do it? Ilike watching the videos of RCPlanes and helicopters but to actually see your flight up close and personal is very very cool!</span></span>

I think either that or a base jump with the wing suits would be THE ultimate thrill. They are bat ***** crazy though.
