'Fusion Man' Soars Above Swiss Alps

Recently in Bex, Switzerland a man by the name of Yves Rossy somehow discovered out the way to fly without using planes. He used some type of fuel to propel the wings and soar over the Alps.
Yves is also now the first man to fly with jet powered wings. If that's not an amazing accomplishment I don't know what is. I hope he sells them so people can buy them and then they are used as a means of transportation, not for fighting the war in Iraq. At least I hope so. Anyway he can fly at speeds of 186 mph and maybe even faster if he improves on this awesome piece of technology. He also just needs his body to move around in the air so I'm assuming that the wings are lightweight. I never thought this kind of accomplishment would be possible and I bet that Yves is now one rich man.
