This guy rocks!!
« on: January 08, 2010, 09:13:09 PM »
Check out this 89-year-old man.  He was trying to get over the grief of losing his wife, and took up wing-walking.     :o

He has crossed the English Channel both ways, at 160 mph, and the only comment about the stroke he had six years ago is "Now he just needs a little more help getting up on the wing."

You go, boy!!    ::bow::

 ::bow::

Don't make me come back there!!!!

Wow, and most people think the window-seat in an airplane has the best view :D  |:)\

On the plus side, the wide-screen in-flight movie and soundtrack is better than ever! |:)\ ;D
