I dream about flying all of the time. I got my glider pilot's license in 1992 and thought that was as close as I would get. Now, I see, maybe there's hope.

I was wondering how he was going to land safely. It looks pretty awesome, and also really risky.

that was filming the head-on shots. When they showed the long shot of him from the side rear. As to who was filming that, I don't know.
