This Austrian extreme sports legend has pushed the boundaries of free-flying by crossing the English Chanel, with a carbon wing strapped to his back. On July 31, 2003, Felix skydived from a plane above Dover, England, and landed 35 kilometers away in Cap Blanc-Nez near Calais, France, just 14 minutes later. He wore only an aerodynamic jumpsuit, an oxygen tank from which to breathe, and a parachute to land. His wing had carried him across the Channel!
