Swiss adventurer and aviator Yves Rossy, also known as “Jetman,” flew over the spectacular skyline of Rio de Janeiro. He launched himself by jumping out of a helicopter and then engaged the pack’s four jet engines. Traveling at speeds up to 186 miles per hour, he flew over Ipanema, Copacabana, past Sugar Loaf Mountain and buzzed Brazil’s famous Christ the Redeemer statue before cutting the engines and deploying a parachute.
