[skkid339]

lucky ass

[BigFriendlyNinja]

[Ashuiegi]

[Roadracer987654321]

Vive Le France !

[garbagelasagna]

iMovie needs some new music tracks.

[BASPERS]

J'aimerais vraiment voir , monsieur Rossy voler ! Si seulement , je savais où aller le voir lol

[MrHimuraChan]

old lady: Mr Yves help! someone stole my purse!

Yves Rossy: *put hands in his hips* Don't worry fair lady, this is a job for THE FUSION MAN!!!!

[gustavorezende]

Good video! Could you put an English subtitle in this movie? I don't understand French! (lol)

[qwertyuiopasyt]

che genialata! grande!

[vacheos159753]

c'est trés interesent

merci

[moaninglory]

all he needs now is an undercarriage and see if he can take off to do away with the mother plane

[will4ward]

It's really like flying like a bird...I don't have to think.

There's nothing between me and the atmosphere.

If I want ,I tilt my head down -I go down.

go up I camber back.

I turn my head and body left i go left.

Its like kids playing...(some game)

Its for moment like this one.

I had 10 - 5mins of flight

We'll lets go ... Its good!

[will4ward]

Pt3

YOu don't know what's gonna happen,I have two parachutes on my back.

I pull the release the wing lowers -one para for it and there's still 2 for me.

If some thing happens to my para-wing then I have a reserve.

The thing you need is, to have enough altitude.

I leave the plane all 4 turbines working-nice.

The wings fold into position ,i'm going 300 knots/hr.

(He talks about flying formation with a Sukhoi.Spending all day flying...)

[will4ward]

I'm used to this danger , My mother knew the risks when I was a military pilot.If some thing happened to me -Well that's what I wanted to do. -My wife knows this also.

If you have the passion to do something-you must, no matter the risk.

Better to have stories than regrets.

pt2

"The challenge took 7 years,with ups and downs It took perseverance.

R&D development, prototyping, its hard.

-To know you must go seek.

After that ,its easy.

[will4ward]

Translation for the "Freedom Fries Crowd"

Pt1

"I am a wild person who is not stupid, I'm not into breaking my face!

Those who call me crazy don't know what I'm up to.

I was always admiring of all these flying men

- and there are many.

Their spirit ,they didn't know if the next moment was their last.

This idea came to me from this appreciation for them - And to be airborne is thrilling.

[batourey]

The guy is the Lucky Lindy of the 21st century. Do you think? I think we should all get jetpacks. Disney promised it in their Tomorrowland tour at Disneyland.

[gravrdr]

AWESOME! Another pioneer to help move forward the idea and dream of personal flight. great job!!

[amoeba12]

Great Accomplishment

[wootzer42]

What an amazing flight and such a thrill for me to witness, though I was 8,000 miles away. Congrads to you Mr Rossy! PS BTW, he speaks beautiful English.... and some of you need to mature...this man saught his dream and accomplished it.

[usnavyvet2002]

Switzerland has three official languages:

German, French and Italian (4 if you count Romansch).

Greenstx,

We all know that gay guys say your, when they mean you're, so color yourself outed.

Besides, I hardly classify a guy who builds his own jet pack and flies across the English channel as anything less than manly.

[greenstx]

i'd like all of you french/swiss whatever homos to strap a jetpack to your asses and fly the fuck into a mountain. we we douche bags

[mackjsm]

DAMN IT! I don't know French!

[dceremuga]

We aren't homophobic. I respect people no matter what their personal preference. We just have a good idea of what testosterone in a man "should" do. Flying a jetpack on your back is high on my list of WOOF WOOF... Yeah baby, that takes a pair!!! WTG guy.

That is the future of Special Ops. drop a few of those outside the operations area and when they are done, the guys can take off and GTF out of danger. Things like this are innovation. Love it.

[dceremuga]

Very cool, I still like the "fruitcake" comment. Yeah, he needs to learn English.

Guess there are still real men left in the world, outside of the USA and Russia :)

That does SOUND like gay french though

[pthombeaux]

Stop bickering you fools. This is a video about a guy who successfully straps on a jet pack and flies around in it. Keep your comments relevant or shut up.

[revparadigm]

Does that mean gay "Yanks" are homophobic too & repressing their homosexuality? What a stupid generalization and nothing than a gay return insult...so anybody who insults gay are really gay? You are no better than the first insult.

[oslin1]

Cool!

[1954shadow]

This wing will probably show up in the next '007' movie.

[mattrmc19]

fusion man? lol. fucking eurotrash faggots.

[watts18269]

I love how Yanks are so homophobic, sure sign of repressed homosexuality, wouldn't you say? Lol

[mattrmc19]

i hope everyone in your family gets shot in the face.

[watts18269]

Lol with what, you're pathetic wad? We dont have guns here in decent society, unlike you gung-ho twats, so theres not much chance of that happening pal :)

[mattrmc19]

what a fucking fag. you're pathetic. how does it feel to be unable to please women sexually? kill yourself already. nobody likes you, not even your family.

[watts18269]

Calling a fag a fag, doesnt offend him you cum guzzling semen stain. Lol grow up amoeba.

[mattrmc19]

in 10 years, when you are living in the Islamic Republic of Britain, I hope you and your family are the first faggots beheaded.

[watts18269]

Haha I live in Amsterdam you fool. Anyway, you bore me, goodbye petite garcon :)

[mattrmc19]

I hope everyone in your family gets aids and dies long and horrific deaths.

[boa721]

your the loser

[mattrmc19]

shut the fuck up. go suck his dick if you love him so much. also, learn some fucking english you ghetto piece of trash. it's you're, not your.

[boa721]

try again ass hole. my english is corect, you on the other hand are one serious loser.

[jaajy1]

Nice freakin Mustang in the background. Guess the french aren't all the way gay, may just bisexual

[greenstx]

speak english you french fruit

[xfrudx]

he is swiss you american twat

[terrorislam666]

He speaks French pretty damn well for a Swiss.

[monteroxz]

what did you think people speak in Switzerland... Swiss??? Answer: German and French...

[greenstx]

french , swiss, who cares your all fags

[proudbelgian]

@greenstx What's wrong with you hillbilly ?You're a retarded inbred insular moron. Crawl back to your typical american wooden shack.And play billard and paintball(LOL) you blue collar poor.

[CaptRon1913]

Too cool. I would love to fly this thing. Seems like your neck would get sore after a while though.

[Deke1]

it's a glorified glider.....no big deal!!

[polatrite]

You're a glorified dumbass.

[peros70]

He made it over! Fantastic!

[dfdgfdgf0000]

ça lui brûle pas les fesses ?

[michalela1]

i would just love to fly like him!=)

[jeffreyreginaldfield]

US military would love this device for there special forces... inject them over enemy lines ... what happens when he hits a bird..? ouch!

[jadawin10]

actually with its 4 jets, he can mount to 30% degrees, search for others video of this guy. (excuse my english)

[gpdoray007]

Tes bonn.

Now I'm next ;)

Super Jet Man

S.T.B.F.

[metalhead492]

BUzz Lightyear is real, I KNEW IT!!!

[hilsey]

you'd have thought they would have invested in a better trolley

[07williamsc]

I think you have to consider that this is the Swiss Military, they are all into this kind of hi-tech stuff. The Swiss military do not go out handing hats and kits to kids, unlike the American Military. The Swiss have a large amount of money to spend on their military, as they are not capped by the EU. I wouldn't be surprised if they implemented it in Swiss Recon. Military... we will just have to wait and see!

[ulyses5]

Isn't military service compulsory for Swiss men?

No need for hats and footballs to recruit soldiers if they're already conscripted.

[CodeTVdotTK]

I agree. Especially when the military is making soilders buy their own Kevlar vests. Yet some how they can afford to give free hats and nerf footballs to high school kids.

[ulyses5]

Liberals keep voting to cut military budgets and to tie their hands. Yet somehow our military gets the job done magnificently, just not perfectly.

The military does the hardest job in the government and they do it better and more efficiently than any other service the government provides.

Liberals always criticize them but not entitlement programs that are ineffective and laced with corruption. They vote to expand their scope and budgets.

[JimboTHC]

Unlike conservatives who just vote not to put the military or the war in the Budget.

Last I was checked it was John McCain and George Bush throwing a hissy fit over a new GI Bill.

It's all Bullshit anyways they both suck and it's morons like you who enable them.

You act like its a fucking team sport and argue about which one is worth while both atrocious platforms are slowly implemented.

[jaajy1]

Liberals probably want a unit that straps on like the origional batman and robbin. Liberals are as gay as those French queers

[CARALHOO12]

muito bem! meus parabens!

[oregoncoastman]

y u not put vid in english wtf i dun even speek spanish omg

[skibum1981]

ummm, that's french. ha haha

[Gm4n767]

wow ur retarded

btw... that was amazing

they should offer that to other people with lessons like skydiving in the future

[hamfrittenanzalot]

...quite probably so ;-)

[CYBERianBoi]

Don't be so hateful, don't despise people on the basis of their language. What's the problem that the interview is not in English, this man (Ives - pronounced "eev" - Rossy) speaks French, German and English and I considering the fact that 85% of English vocabulary is derived from French it must be relatively understandable for an English speaker to understand it with a little effort.

[jerrystroud]

Latin, ancient Greek and Egyptian rank with French as a dead language. French is steadily turning into Franglish no matter how much the Frech try to fight it.

[backwoodsmister]

Fuck French. Who needs to speak this filthy language? Italian is much more sexy, and the people don't smell like asshole.

[revelinabandon]

Since he can't take off and land with it, it's kind of a non-event in my opinion. Pretty cool though, I guess. Perhaps it will serve as a stepping stone to a more complete personal flight platform. Then again, personal flight is going to take a cheap and efficient fuel system.

[RavenHursT4real]

This has great applications for the special forces and parachuting into hostile territory. The Army has already started working on a platform where someone can jump from miles away from the target, making it harder to detect their insertion.

[revelinabandon]

Even so, that's a very limited application. And more importantly an expensive one. I don't think the military is ready to spend that kind of money on a single unit/man, especially when it would have to be destroyed to keep the technology from the enemy. It's cool and all, but still in the sphere of science fiction, in my opinion.

[77057206631113]

That's right. But terrorists might take advantage of inventions like these....I hope Al- Jazeera doesn't broadcast the adventure of this guy.

Imagine if somebody did these in the US...he couldn't make it!

Flying: voila mon reve!

[Fuzzybeanerizer]

Well, launching from a bigger plane, landing by slow, clumsy, attention-attracting parachute (or parafoil, or whatever) I can't see how this would be the least value to terrorists. If anything, they'd throw the wing out to make more room for explosives in the launch aircraft.

[Gugolpl0x]

I like how languages that make sense are easy to learn.

I feel sorry for people who have to learn English.

[catfishcoleslawfries]

Talk about commuting to work in the 21st century....Of course the whole parachuting onto the street might be problematic.

[Sparx1]

UN-FREAKING-BELEAVABLE!!! He actually made a JETPACK!!! I want one! O.o

[steviepotter]

now he really is a 'rocket'!!!

[yasudin]

Guys!!! its seems to be that the engine he is using is like the engine of remote control planes.... right????

[maurice180]

and people talk about black people r crazy. he got balls of steel,better him then me. now watch da military pay him a trillion dollars to make copies

[xdayz]

fantastique! i hope he can develop another kind of fuel.

[D9magestic]

Fantastic lets combine two completely unfordable sports into one new super expensive one.  Just free antigrav technology now so we can stop all this. See 'Project Disclosure' and 'Project Camelot'.

[aaronhedberg]

I

AM

IRON MAN

[haapalainen]

Ironman

[salleens7]

its highly unlikely the military would use that

[arandomperson3]

I disagree, you don't need a landing strip, and it's probably to small to see oon radar. Plus, you can deploy covert troops from miles away into foreighn airspace

[yourreadinmyusername]

but you still need a carrier aircraft & with todays detection systems, that will be suspicious. The local populace would also be able to hear it. Regardless, it is without a doubt, armies will look into this. Remember, this is still in it's early stages, but with military funding and support, leaps & bounds can occur. it took 4 years for the aeroplane to change from clumsy scout to agile fighter in WW1.

[salleens7]

Ya thats a good point,the most theyll use it for is just long range deployment of special forces. I meant to say that I doubt the military will use it for actuall combat. My bad I shouldve been clearer.

[ikra]

boeing would never have ever thought of this :D

He's just introduced a new breed of extreme sports :D damn i see te future full of airshows and races from this.. he's a rich man.. if not, his name will be remembered.. and that is the ultimate

[FireBirdsGo]

ikra I totally agree! This is definitely an extreme sport I would do.

[NellyMor]

i'm sure soon it will be developed by the army somehow.. air combat will have a new meaning

[NuclearAssassin]

The real problem is tha he can't take off from ground level or land without room the way someone with a "jetpack" should be able to. With the limited amount of fuel I can't really see this being too useful other than strictly entertainment purposes.

[annagassan]

That would never be picked up on radar as a plane. Militarys around the world are drooling and digging deep into their pockets.

[silentguff]

They already have planes that can be stealthed from radars. Congrats.

[pillwthing]

innit blud!

[pillwthing]

HA! LOOK AT THAT FRENCH IDIOT!!!!

[PS3joecheatle]

swis u twat

[twerdie]

HA! LOOK AT YOU IDIOT!!!! hes not even french.

[hamfrittenanzalot]

not everyone who speaks french is french, just as not everyone who speaks english is english...

[GunslingerBrad]

hes mad

[stratigary]

This is sweet. And thank you for adding more CO2, the photosynthetic organisms around the world thank you for it.

[beepbop101]

Shut up liberal. This is great.

[nickjais]

yeah, burn more fuel, yes... more carbon more CO2, incredible idiotic invention

[bmwkmx1]

go live in a forest..

[tasteslikewhat]

Kill yourself jackass. This is a cool invention. If this is how you feel, NEVER drive a car, heat your home, or waste energy by surfing the internet.

[77057206631113]

get a life ,buddy!

[boa721]

he has probably done more on this project than you have in you whole life. maybe you should get a life huh?

[77057206631113]

boa721 hasn't probably realized that my "get a life ,buddy!" comment (as well as bmwkmx1's and tasteslikewhat's) was in response to nickjais comment. Anyway, I'm not catching a fight with you. After all,we need to understand you tube beginners who don't know the difference between making a comment a replying to a comment...

[mshacked]

Go suck a tree root!!

[jigege]

go suck ur mamas dick.

[Guaudubridge]

incredible

[nintendodslite1992]

that looks fun

[gini578]

this is FRIKKIN AMAZING!!!

i wish i could do that sometime..

[circusninja]

Woo hoo! I get to post a comment right after the legendary payallin!

Anyway, I always dreamed of the kind of flight this guy does. What an awesome time of scientific achievement we live in.

[mistabump]

to infinity... and beyond!!

[b1blancer1]

I was there once, but I came back.  No good restaurants. Well, except for the one at the end of the universe.

[mshacked]

LOL, nice reference

[jackhannaford]

Woaah :O pretty cool. How long will it be before the army kidnaps him and pikes his idea :D

[hamfrittenanzalot]

Ok, for all those poor guys who don't understand any french ;-), here's what he says. He explains a few technical details and evoques then the security issue. There are three parachutes in his machine. He says that flying this is like being in 'osmosis' with the atmosphere, and probably the closest to how birds feel when they fly. The steering is intuitive, and done solely by body movements. A child's play as he puts it.

I'm impressed by this man and his invention.

[petarro]

Payallin, who cares abour English, can you speak any other Language you idiot?

[payallin]

petarro, you may want to reread my post. I don't think understood what I was saying.

[TighelanderII]

If this doesn't get you laid, then I don't know what will.

[HAmmer32261]

I wonder how much the unit weighs?? and if he wore inline skates if theres enough thrust to take off from the ground.

[Guaudubridge]

Incredible! Military guys could take advantage of this Jetman idea!

[uspatriot2009]

What a show-off. He didn't need all those fancy props to sport his new Swiss made watch.

[tiques1969]

First cheese, now the "Rocket Man". The Swiss are taking over the world!!!

[bandersay]

HALO!!!!!

[MASHandRuneScape]

Looks fun!

[USAPatriot1]

That boy needs to learn English.

[bigdaddyevil666]

Why should he learn English? He does not live in America. It's his video not yours. So he can speak any language he wishes.

By the way, he can speak very good English.

Bet you cannot speak anything else but English.

[USAPatriot1]

Actually I speak Russian fluently, thanks to the US military. As to why he should speak English, it's because most of the educated world does. His video is gibberish in THIS CONTEXT.

[payallin]

Wow patriot, you're pretty much an idiot. Why do I get the feeling that you're a living stereotype of what liberals think all of us conservatives are? Hell, a large part of the population here can't speak proper English.

[eddyjawed]

Patriot - why should he have to speak english! Why does everyone have to speak English? We should be less arrogant and respect and try to learn thier language or get a translator.

[KiraZeroYamato]

He speaks French, a valid language to speak in Switzerland. He shouldn't have to speak your language just because you can't understand what he's saying.

[thinwhitedukenator]

And you need to learn how not to be a moron.

[lefozz]

This Swiss man is crazy but excellent, one more time Swiss technology is the best, forget chinese or so.

[Bovinamafia]

I'd rather have the SWEET Mustang at 1:57

[hpjim]

I second that! Looks like a cool Bullitt Mustang!

[williamsalaska]

This was cool and looks like fun. I wish it was translated to english.

[BrushCountryAg03]

His flight is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life . . . AWESOME!

[portraitmaker61]

And i think it's gonna be a long long time

Till touch down brings me round again to find

I'm not the man they think i am at home

Oh no no no i'm a rocket man

[muskaheaney]

rock - et MAN

[BeranNatty]

To Infinity and Beyond!!!!!

[naveax]

Ugh!! you beat me to it!!!

[j0sed]

la wea pulenta

[jrsanti]

what the hell did he just say???

[bryancox74]

He thanking his sponsors

[drsmartz]

Amazing equipment, and a great flight! I wish I understood the narration... Not sure why "watchmaking" or "bigbang" is in the tags though (other than that is the sponsor's business). Probably couldn't hurt to tag a few more words that are relevant to the video content - may result in more views.
