Swiss Adventurer Yves Rossy, also known as Jetman or Fusionman, made history this morning by flying across the English Channel with just a jet-propelled wing on his back. Yves, who had to postpone the flight twice this week due to bad weather, soared across the skies at about a 100 mph on a beautiful fall afternoon, completing the 22-mile journey in just 13 minutes.
