A Swiss man has become the first person to fly solo across the English Channel using a single jet-propelled wing. Yves Rossy landed safely after the 22-mile (35.4 km) flight from Calais to Dover, which had been twice postponed this week because of bad weather. The former military pilot took less than 10 minutes to complete the crossing and parachute to the ground. The 49-year-old flew on a plane to more than 8,200ft (2,500m), ignited jets on a wing on his back, and jumped out. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/7637327.stm
indeed.
Oh, I thought there was going to be a Toy Story 3.
That's pretty cool though.
I want one so I can fly with the birdies all the way home.
Reminds me of the stuff I saw in either Jimmy Neutron or The Jetsons. When he was hanging form the plane, all I was thinking is hope they don't they turbulence. Cool stuff though.
Oh, I thought there was going to be a Toy Story 3.
There is.
Oh, I thought there was going to be a Toy Story 3.
There is.
Coming June 2010, I might add. 
With Toy Story 1 and 2 being re-released into theatres in Disney Digital 3-D before then, too.
I have no idea how someone can be that brave. But it's awesome. That guy is awesome.
😀 Waving as he fell out the plane
(ps I don't care for Toy Story so I didn't get the reference :D)
If I don't get one of these for christmas, I'll be extremely disappointed.
