This is amazing footage of the self-styled ‘Jet Man’, Yves Rossy, who flew in a custom-built jet suit, alongside two Albatross jets over the Swiss Alps.

The custom built flight suit weighs almost 55kg, has a wing span of two metres and four engines, and can exceed speeds of 200km/h. He has also previously soared over the Grand Canyon for eight minutes, and over the English Channel, in 13 minutes.

Rossy is still the first man in the history of aviation to fly with a jet-propelled wing, a feat he first achieved in 2006.

Simply amazing, reminds me of Iron Man…I wonder what it feels like to be able to fly?
