Swiss pilot and inventor Yves Rossy took to the skies over Rio de Janeiro Wednesday using a carbon-kevlar jet pack.
Nicknamed “the Jetman,” Rossy jumped from a helicopter hovering over the city, flew around its historic landmarks, and landed on Copocabana beach.
Rossy was the first person in the world to fly using a jet-powered wing. He invented the jet pack himself, and made his first successful flight over the Swiss Alps in 2008.
In 2009 he tried to be the first person to travel between two continents by crossing the Straight of Gibraltar. Weather conditions forced him to land in the sea.
