Took some balls to fly that thing out over water. Can’t be easy to ditch all that gear.
Wonder if he's got any sort of exoskeleton underneath the shirt to help, Im sure it's a strain on his arms
But freaking cool

And that’s the reason they wouldn’t accept me into test pilot academy. I’d remember not to wave just as I was actually doing it, causing a sudden out of control loop-de-loop, snaking me against the water several times before plummeting me to the bottom. My luck, the engines would continue to burn for a few seconds which would send me careening through Spongebob’s living room.Well, the other option for test crashes is over land. It occurred to me that he couldn't wave back at the people in the boat. Certianly cool, but maybe limited in what you can do?
Twirly thing behind his head. You can see a foot of the the cable looking thing. That's not an antennawhere did the camera angles come from? from one side to the other.. in 'flight' ?
Likely a GoPro on a mount that moves. I dont know what sort of boom mount they use, but there is software that will easily, and quickly, 'erase' the boom from the footagewhere did the camera angles come from? from one side to the other.. in 'flight' ?

The maximum altitude is proportional to the mass of the pilot's balls. The bigger the balls, the higher it will go.It looks like it’s limited in altitude.
I couldn’t fly it then. I’d never come back down! Jus sayin....The maximum altitude is proportional to the mass of the pilot's balls. The bigger the balls, the higher it will go.
I’ll give you the benefit of any doubt here...until those little model airplane jet engines go “poof poof sputter sputter” and stop putting out their little hot dog cooker flames! Then it’s a matter of how fast you can flap your arms!I couldn’t fly it then. I’d never come back down! Jus sayin....
