Hate all the people on youtube saying its fake because his legs are up, but obviously that is because of the air blowing the wings up so he could get his feet up, or because they think its cgi because they don't believe it. i believe it.

Actually the hoax page I linked you to in the writing it says it is possible but he couldn't do. That is because he is not an engineer and doesn't have a big budget.
