Yves Rossy (a professional pliot) and his protégé, Vince Reffet took to the sky in Dubia, United Arab Emirates, they cross the desert and come close to the tallest building in the world, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
Swiss pilot Rossy has been soaring through the air with nothing but a set of jet propelled wings since 2006. He has flown next to a B17 bomber above Wisconsin and circled Mount Fuji located in Japan in 2013 in a custom-made jetsuit. He cruised above the Grand Canyon in 2011 and now flew with Vince Reffet in the sky of Dubia.
"I felt I was flying. It is just an insane feeling," says one of the jetmen. "The moment when the action is coming there is big concentration. It's a mix of fear and adrenaline that we transform into good energy, into power."
"It feels so natural," Reffet says. "Suddenly, the wing and me were making one. It was like an extension of my body. I fell I was flying. It's just an insane feeling."
"The future of human flying is clear," Rossy explains in the video. "Could be completely autonomous — like a bird. The real dream is to be completely free."
