Feature: Swiss Man Shoots for the Skies with Jet-Powered Wing

Yves Rossy -- also known as the "Jet Man" -- built a deployable 3-meter wing, powered by dual jet engines, that is capable of reaching speeds of up to 100mph. In the demonstration, he jumps from a plane and flies for approximately 4-minutes, landing safely. Video after the break. Click here for first picture in gallery.
