We did it! This weekend I flew a 100 meters with my selfbuilt wings. I used a GoPro-camera on my helmet to film the flight.
I have always dreamed about this. But after 8 months of hard work, research and testing it all payed off. Enjoy!

Leonardo would be proud. If gas prices keep going up, I'll put my order in for a set to commute to work!

This is FAKE as hell. Several reasons. First the wings are not long or big enough and second he's not slapping fast enough. PHONY as hell.

these guy's are brilliant, he is fkd after. id love to see him on the decovery channel in a year, completeing a full migration along side gees, and all the other birds. that would be somthing. just hope they dont mass produce these. there is enugh polish, and foreigners in england now. after watching it i had a vision of 20 million pols,bulgarians,nigerians. all landing on blackpool beach, catching a breath on their way to london lol. brilliant film lads

thatis why the wings are motor powered. there are sensors on his arms. all he needs to do is flap the free weight of his arms and the motor, on his back, will create the force needed to flap those big wings.
