“We will be mosquitoes, flying with an eagle or a condor,” said wingsuited weirdo Yves Rossy of his flight with Vince Reffet and an oh-my-God that’s actually an Airbus A380.

Fun details:

Airbus’ flagship aircraft producing 70,000lbs of thrust from each engine, versus a mere 88 lbs per Jetman engine. The total weight of the plane is 560,000 kg (1.2 million lbs), compared with 150kg ( 331 lbs) per human jet.
