    This is probably the closest to flying you'll ever get.
    Flo Orley takes us with him on board his specially tuned hang glider near Chamonix in the Alps, where we join him for high speed maneuvers, high above the ground. With the glider cutting through the air as fast as 150 km/h, man's dream of flying has never been so close.
    Enjoy the breathtaking views and video camera angles, let them whisk you away into a dream for a few minutes, knowing that the sky has no limits...

      Go for it! Takes time to train to become a pilot though, but it's not difficult and doesn't require extraordinary physique or anything. I myself paraglide. I wanted to hang glide, but the nearest hang gliding school was more than 150 km away from where I live, so I picked up paragliding instead. I'll get around to hang gliding eventually though ;-)

  • @snakedike
    @snakedike 9 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Been flying for 30 years. The coolest thing about the sport is you can dial it down to be about as mellow as a down hill cruise run on the ski slopes. Or you can wind up as tight as you adrenal glands can stand. Search the web for your closest school and give it a try. The community is very welcoming of new pilots.

    • @snakedike
      @snakedike 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The closest I've gotten to upside down is rolling to within about 20 degrees. I think I'm at least 1 season away from safely approaching a loop. I find nothing is scary if you intend to do it although it can give you a great rush and beautiful view of the planet. The loop is very straight forward so some would say easy to do but it's consequences can be really bad if you blow it. Enough people have blown it that I want to approach it with caution.

    The flight has been recorded in the Alps but nothing like in Chamonix but rather in the Bernese Region of the Jungfrau Region in Switzerland. He takes of the Birg station of the Schilthorn tele cabin. He subscequently flys down to Lauterbrunnen and then there is a second flight over Niederhorn where he flys over the lake of Thun.
    Clearly one of the most beautiful spots in the Alps...

    This is why I prefer hang gliding over paramotoring. Both sports are fun but there are things we can do on hang gliders that you can't do on a paramotor. Still both are fun and one day I hope to try out paramotoring as well.

    You never see this anymore I think because parsailing is so much easier and less dangerous, but as you can see this is the closest you can come to being a bird (squirl suits do not allow you to maintain altitude let alone assend so you are not really flying). This looks like beyond fun!
