I would pay serious money for something like that. Just like flying...only a lot cheaper.

Indy, you make me happy. It is always good to know that I am not alone in blasting the Top Gun soundtrack over the stereo. Best fuckin' movie. Ever.

One of our rowing coaches has developed a cool similar setup - the rower wears a pair of video goggles, and watches themself rowing while the coach videos them from the coach boat. he's been using that for a good few years now.

That is cool. I reckon it would be hard to stay standing though. Barrel rolls must be a pain in the neck.:yes:

Not a new idea but the first time I've seen it actualy in use.
If you did it with a scaled down helicopter an also had an on board GPS for the later tracking of the marks you had input ,,it could have applications in things like search and rescue ect.
In fact,now it's got this far it's only a matter of time before it becomes available,,,unless laws are bought it to stop it.
