Yves Rossy, 45 is a recklessly daring former fighter pilot who became the first person to fly like a bird in the year 2004. Now he has blasted across the sky in Spain at 184 kmh in jet-powered wings. He spent five years developing his wings for his flying man project.
The Sun has quoted that Yves Rossy said:
It was absolutely fantastic - total freedom in three dimensions. So much speed and power, it’s better than a bird.
He jumped out of an aircraft for the test flight and glided to 2500 meters. Before killing the engine and parachuting to earth, Yves fired the jet and shot across the sky for four minutes.
