A Swissman called Yves Rossy (or the 'Fusionman' as he likes to call himself) will today become the world's first jet-propelled man to fly across the English Channel. If you hear yodling from above around Calais today, you know who's responsible.

Isn't that just the coolest thing??

Update! Fusionman has delayed his flight until tomorrow because of fog over the channel.
