Apparently the folks at Dolby Labs don't have enough to do. A friend in San Francisco sent me this video of a Swiss man who is taking flight to the next level.
Literally, he's leaving the plane and going out on his own. Plenty have glided in a similar manner, but this guy's wings have an onboard power system that allows him to jump out of a plane and soar up and down through the sky for a solid five minutes of powered flight.
For his next prototype, he projects he will be capable of taking off from the ground and flying for ten minutes.
Ohh, and if you want the shorter, but way cooler, version of the video, use the link below for the version with 'Danger Zone' by Kenny Loggins dubbed over the audio. Because this guy is truly the Top Gun.
