Mythbusters Go Hang Gliding

Post by DanTuck »

In case you missed it, they aired an episode several weeks ago in which Grant and Tory go hang gliding at Fort Funston. The myth was that a few hundred years ago, a guy built a homemade rocketship, launched in it, and at 1000' he jumped out and deployed some kind of wing device allowing him glide back to the earth and land safely. This is the segment with the flying.
