JetMan Completes Flight Over Grand Canyon

Swiss adventurer Yves Rossy, aka Jetman, completed his flight over the Grand Canyon yesterday in his custom-built jet suit. The 51-year-old reached a speed of 190 mph as he flew 200 feet above the rim of the canyon near Guano Point on the Hualapai Indian Reservation in Arizona. The flight lasted about eight minutes before he parachuted to the ground.

Rossy said the Grand Canyon flight was one of the most memorable experiences of his life.
