- Lovely high pressure and clear skies gave me an opportunity to try for 10,000 feet. I managed it last year in february, but didn't really prepare properly - and was bloody freezing. So now, fully wrapped up I took the JPX out and headed up above the clouds! #theflyingscotsmantv#theflyingscotsmantv#theflyingscotsmantv#theflyingscotsmantv

I'm pretty sure this was the very first paramotor video I ever saw. It's cool to come back and check it out again.
Paramotoring is on my Bucket List for this life. Let's hope. Great video.
MrLeviathoth Do It!!!!!!! You’ll be glad you did!!! You just gotta do it!
Have you taken a class yet?
Thank you for the video! Great experience!
Thank you for this!
watching you spin around with the engine off and the camera facing you made me think of 2001 a space odyssey...just floating in space...great video!!
Best wing ever - Dudek Reaction TST
That was brilliant, very brave. Well done!
Great video, very beautiful above the clouds with the sunshine glow across the horizon...
Enjoyed that. Awesome
You went 10000 feet high landed back right in front of your camp van. That's truly badass xD!!!!
Prachtige hobby
Looks so cool how all the clouds dissipate at the ocean.
Awesome video thanks,it must be mind blowing to be so high on a paramotor.thanksfor sharing
Brilliant
Jesus!!! It’s amazing. Hi from Turkey. I want to join you. ☹️☹️☹️
Crazy man ! =)
Couple thousand ft above the clouds,nice flight!!!
Mate, if you ever fancy a bit of this again…. Il do it with you!
Bravo,that is magik of paramotor.
Great! Wondefull flyght, waiting You near Rome, to do again. Also The video very nice and impressive.
Nice flyght!
Luca🇮🇹
A real Scotsman the brave- well done lad
It was awesome.
Wow!! super:)
That's amazing, I want to try that
Nice flight Stu
Imagine skimming the top of those clouds😯😀😎
Wow, well cool, watch out for planes....
Piękne widoki :-)
40up years living on the sea, 80 000 sea miles. Para motoring is thee last blast on my sunset wish. Good video thanks 👍
Just looking at that at home after a few beers and with thousands of flying hours.......... It looks like the scariest insane but thrill seeking trip possible.
Now come to America and go for 18,000.
Congrats on the successful attempt!
How often do you fly your para-glider? Is it a pretty regular thing or do you have to have conditions just right?
wow that's awesome man . I want to do this so bad UT I don't have the training and proper equipment
Nice, I am looking forward to ascend to 10.000 ft with the Quicksilver MX 2S
wooow .. Well done
What was the air temperature at 10000 feet? Very nice job!
how long did it take you to reach 10,000ft? and how long was the ride from start to finish?
Why the fuck do you give 👎 to the bloke he’s done a good thing for him self!! Nice flight bud 👍👍👍
parabens pelo voo amigo , lindo lugar sou de sorocaba -- são paulo--- brazil
Amazing. You’re a champion. A man with tons of courage. The bag in front of you ( on your belly ) was an oxygen reservoir ?
No. Bag for a camera. You don't need supplementary oxgen for 10k.
Nice. I've been to 7500ft,can't wait to go to 9500 which is our limit
Man talk about spot landing that was the bomb! Great job.

must feel free
Amazing, thanks for sharing. Have you tried doing cross country? Whats the farthest distance travelled in a single fuel tank?
Warsame Adam most of my flight are cross country. Though I tend to fly a loop so I can land where I took off. At 25mph, a 2 hour flight can be 50 miles or so. My current paramotor will do around 2 1/2 hours on a tank, but most of my flights are around an hour or so. Have a look at other videos and you'll see cross country flights to Ben Nevis (highest mountain in Britain) for example.
Laughing at bugger it battery flat. the FAA taking notes on pre flight checks here lol
You get up quicker than the lot out at Somersham do !
Good time to go to the toilet then lol
top.
What helmet do you have in this video?
Sir, thank you so much for sharing your incredible experience. I have a question and hope you will reply. I am wondering if you might consider taking a quadcopter up with you that high and giving it a whirl or even better launch from up high with coordinates programmed to land before you....then capturing your landing. It doesn't have to be exactly that way or course. This would be a first I believe. I am your new sub and fan. Wishing you all the best.
sorry, no that would be illegal in the UK, and also highly dangerous if it went through the lines
OMG!! This looks like crazy fun and looks like id give you a huge adrenaline rush! How do you even get into this sport? Is it expensive? How much would one of those setups cost? what type of licence also do you even need??
new, about 8K. secondhand about 2 or 3K. 2 weeks of training if the weather's good and you can be in the air. no licence required in UK (though I would suggest training through the BHPA leading to their professional qualification)
What was your camera please ? I like it ! :D
It's just a gopro 3+
Thank you ;)
specs of your setup? your weight? glider size?
I wanna do this someday
Well done.Big kahunas.
Whats that on your feet?
Boots? Or do you mean the strap when I'm on speedbar?
Ah,must be the speed bar.
You can see the earth curve in that altitude?
I did 10000 feet on my paramotor in almost same place, Cape Charles. It was freaking cold even in summer.
There is no 10000' legal limit. For all ultralights in US, legal limit is 18000' (class A airspace).
Max Lichko this is in the UK.
Oh I see, got confused
The real danger of going above 10000 ft is the Hypoxia (lack of oxygen) it's a dangerous silent killer. At the begining you want feel it as it is silent & you will start making strange decision, then you go in comma resulting of certain death as no oxygen to the human body. the more you go higher the risk is more, & you will have only 15 seconds if you are awake to save your life.
Legally you are not allowed to fly over 10000 ft without oxygen for long time, you have only 30 minutes between 10000 & 13000 ft , over 13000 ft you must have the oxygen tanks, this is why in the planes they compress the air in the cabinet as they go over 30000 ft
At your risk (To train your lungs to deal with high altitude less then 10000 ft, you should spend some days in the mountains (but still the Hypoxia is waiting for you with a grave risk) Again, it is at your risk).
Also, be careful , NEVER DIVE & FLY IN THE SAME DAY, give at least 24 hours for your body to adjust it self. it is very serious risk, because the Nitrogen bubbles will form in your blood stream & that's enough to kill.

I was wondering if you can share how your Recon Jet app development have progressed. Cheers, Alex
It was the mod live. But should work on jet too. I think it is as it was in the relevant video. I fly with it every flight and my software does everything I need of it. But there was very little interest in it from anyone else, even on the Recon forums. If you want a copy of the code, pm me.
powerlord69 I am sending you a pm right now.
powerlord69 Did you get my pm?? I have finished the interface mockup and all I need now is to start to add code to that.
Is there a 10,000 feet legal limit? I know there is 18,000 legal limit. Please clarify. Good video, cheers
+Xavi the UK law is that you need a transponder above 10K. plus supplemental oxygen. So without prior agreement with the CAA, that is the limit without these items. Obviously that assumes you are still in in class G.
10000ft on a lawnmower... not bad XD
Who needs an engine. Honestly
Legal Limit??
that looks good fun. whats the law regarding using one in the uk, id like to have a go at this. do you have to have a licence ect
+simi Yes you need a license. There are a few schools for this in the uk.
yes i have since looked into it. can you do like a teaser lesson ? im not sure weather its something i could get on with. heights dont bother me much but its easy said than done lol.
simi
Most schools offer demo flights where you go up with an instructor.
What licence and who issues it? There are no licence or specific training requirements, you don't need insurance either. But you would be crazy to have a go without training of some sort!
Made me nervous and im in bed.....on top of cold.....so much can go wrong and at 10k ft you have lots of time to think on the way down....
It's funny because you wouldn't think 10000 feet was that high, but once you're up there, my God, it looks like 30000. lol
Is the FAA gonna catch you (or an ultralight trike) if you attempt to go to 10560 feet to make it an even 2 miles? Or is that a reasonable height you can get to without getting busted?
5 years ago. Do you still fly!?????
Sure. Your just looking at 5 year old videos. 😁
finally after a while found where the pilot was landing...
it was at Northrepps Aerodrome if anybody interested...
u could have just asked? yup - took off from there too. Great airfield - paramotor friendly. Well worth a visit.
powerlord69 I just got list airfields at Norfolk from Google search and then compared shapes of airfields to one on your video (while you were landing)....found it on 3rd attempt
Can you give me your prop specs to change my 1.1m prop to.
Ci vo li cujun!
how fast do you decline with the engine off?
Outside earth
You can see the curvature of the earth an you’re freaking power gliding you’re nuts . 😂😂😂
Norfolk Virginia ???
Im from Virginia Beach,i used to skydive in Puerto Rico,than i start flying Cessna 172....If you are from Norfolk...how can i contact you ???
Ricky
Virginia Beach,Virginia.
No mate, the original one - Norfolk, England, UK. :-)
Oh well....never mind...Thanks !!!
+ricardo nazario
I am in Williamsburg Virginia and looking to get into the sport. Did you find any others in our area?
No....i need to do some more research.
John Hansknecht same here
Awesome flight! I've recently purchased a brand new paramotoring, wing, etc... and will be training in a couple of weeks. I have a co-worker that is a licensed private pilot and he tells me I can't fly in any restricted airspace near any airports, etc... I'm a tugboat captain in NYC and I was hoping to fly over the city and up the Hudson River. I lived in Norfolk, VA. for 10 years and I know there are numerous military bases there like Norfolk Airport , NAS Norfolk, NAS Oceana, Langley AFB, etc... Are PPG's exempt and allowed???
BrassRainbow556 I don't know what your USA FAA laws are, but I imagine they are similar to the uk in that we are subject to he same laws of the air as any other aircraft. And since we have no transponders or radio we are usually excluded from flying in restricted airspace. I would be very surprised if ppg flight was allowed in nyc. And flying in military airspace is never a good idea.
I think hes in England. Northrepps Airfield, Cromer, UK
Well at least I'd rather have it die up high than down low
You need to put the captions up for MUCH longer for dyslectic people please.
sorry. but you can just pause ?
Not a foot higher!
Bet he ran outta gas.
legal limit?? where are you flying? not the us
UK.Yup, not idea what your rules are.
go to fly 20000 feet sir

And always don't name your channel Libya because the FBI NSA CIA is watching your every move above 10 feet.
@@mccc4559 looooooooolllllll , They are my close friends
@@libya00218 How close? 187 close?
Hypoxia doesn’t really effect you until you hit about 14-16,000 ft and stay at that altitude for a lengthy period of time
@@bornuponawave bro, please have some reading about it.
It’s only 10,000 ft high so why would you need a oxygen mask; you can see 2:15
er.. thats a face warmer. it was freezing.
can you verify with your own eye that the earth is not flat?
the flat earth thing is getting crazy and their argument is always the fish eye camera lense which we see with your camera even at ground level.
could you see the curve with your own eye?
+chris hope that's what I was wondering. I'm sure he should have seen the curve though.
+chris hope are you fucking serious? please tell me you're joking...
+chris hope
Did you write that without blushing?
Im not the one that thinks the earth is flat lmao
And satellite's are fake right? GPS is fake. Timing a ham radio frequency to the moon is fake..lmao
That looked like a super boring flight haha. Atleast you can say you did it!
Mi a különleges ebben a videóban?
