Amazing Video: 'Jet Man' stunts alongside fighter jets over Alps

Amazing pictures from Switzerland show where "jetman" Yves Rossy gave this incredible flying display, using a tailor-made jet pack. The aviation enthusiast leapt from a helicopter and performed a series of aerial acrobatics above the Alps. He then joined two jet planes in a synchronized flight. To synchronise their flight paths the jets reduced their speed to 220 kilometres per hour (137 miles per hour), which put their engines at a point close to stalling. Rossy's previous aerial feats include flying the English Channel and looping the loop around a hot-air balloon.

You just don't know how badly I need this. I've seriously got to get a set of jet wings and fly side-by-side with fighters, at speed. I won't be truly happy in life until I can have a satisfaction like that.

I've dreamt of it.

"To synchronise their flight paths the jets reduced their speed to 220 kilometres per hour (137 miles per hour), which put their engines at a point close to stalling."

And then abdicate your mind and choices to the military collective--there is no killing or death, just the glamour of flight! Believe.... Just believe.
