Some people are just too adventurous in life. It is fascinating to see these adventurous folks performing deadly stunts that give you the adrenaline rush. Yves Rossy, a 50 year old Swiss adventurer is attempting to jump out of a plane at 6,500 ft and cruise at 130 mph and cross 23 mile between Tangier in Morocco and Tarifa on the Southwestern tip of Spain. He will perform this death defying stunt by using a four-cylinder jet pack and carbon fibre wings spanning over 8 feet.

While Mr. Ross performs his adventurous act, he will be accompanied by a fleet of helicopters and aircraft to film the event and it will be broadcast live on the internet. However, Mr. Rossy’s journey will depend on good weather. The stunt is expected to complete in less than fifteen minutes. Mr. Rossy is featured in the record books a year ago when he crossed the English Channel from Calais to Dover using a jet-propelled wing on his back.

It sounds rather eccentric but Mr. Rossy believes he possesses the skills of man and bird. Hence, he calls himself with the nickname “Fusionman”. He also often calls himself with the sobriquet “Jetman”. We only wish all the best to this brave man. Age is definitely not a factor.
