Anyone else watch him cross the channel yesterday? I saw it on Natl. Geographic. Mr. MostAwesomestGenius Rossy (nickname provided) flew across the English Channel with his wing and parachuted safely to Dover. The wing cam wasn't working unfortunately so most of the camera shots were from a ways off but it was still a great thing to see. CNN said that his longest flight before this was 8 minutes. Way to go Yves!!!
