The man that flies with a suit...
Eski savaş pilotu Yves Rossy İsviçre'nin Bex kentinde ilk kez 4 motorlu kanadıyla 2 bin 500 metre yükseklikte kendini boşluğa bıraktı. İsviçreli roketadam 300 kilometre hıza kadar ulaşıp 5 dakika boyunca gökyüzünde kalmayı başardı. Uçan ilk insan olarak tarihe geçen Rossy, Guinness Rekorlar Kitabı'ndaki yerini dünkü denemesiyle daha da güçlendirmiş oldu.
