Only Fools and Paramotors - part 1 (of 2)

I hope you will enjoy this 12 minute adventure into the world of 'no longer a teenager but....' male gung-ho madness.

A few years ago, my friend decided to enter the sport of paramotoring. This short documentary, patched together from 'amateur' footage, charts his first attempt to fly with the motor strapped to his back.

There had been experiments running down hills with just the 'wing' but little could prepare any of us for the day were about to experience.

A Japanese friend provided useful insight in her native language (subtitled where necessary) which I think adds an interesting angle to proceedings. Bewilderment mainly.

I edited the footage and provided tongue-in-cheek narration. Great fun putting it together.

Hope you enjoy watching it as much as I do.
