About the Movie with Yves Rossy: Man, forever obsessed with the dream of flying; Icarus' myth, tried time after time to fly like a bird. The best ever achieved are flying machines in which men lock themselves in, created by some of mankind's greatest pioneers in this area. Over the past decade, whilst still keeping the idea of flying like a bird in mind, various flying apparels were imagined and created such as hanggliders, paragliders, and gliding wingsuits. All of these use the various air currents to fly on and with. However, no-one will ever forget the human who could actually fly and who appeared on earth in 1939. This man could jump and fly through the air at whatever chosen moment: Batman... the Cartoon character created by Bob Kane. Today, Batman can leave behind his cartoon books and movie theatres and fly above the Swiss Alps, this person is Yves Rossy. He has finally achieved Leonardo Da Vinci's greatest fantasy and can fly through the air! Following a long line of predecessors, this Swiss man, who's lifetime passion is flying, once flew for the Swiss army at the controls of the Mirage III, then went on to fly as captain on Airbuses, and now has not only created and developed wings which allow him to fly, but also built and personally tested them over the past 7 years. Finally, and this since last Autumn, his dream became reality mainly because of 4 model-engines which were built under his wings. With these, he can fly at over 200km/hr and conquer mountain summits. During the flight, Yves's body becomes the likes of a bird and, other than a gas handle, Yves does not ride his wings but truly flies them, using various light body movements that he has learned to handle with perfection. These body movements are equal to those that birds use to fly...
