Okay, it's fake. Sorry for wasting everyone's time.

You'll note that during the video, an assistant turns on the pilot's headcam. A second cameraman films the assistant at work from behind. Then the assistant turns around and runs toward the second cameraman - and, magically, the assistant is now wearing sunglasses.

It was fun while it lasted.

re: "Appears to being debunked..."

I'm not surprised. I was just discussing it with a friend over lunch. I was already leaning in the direction of it being fake. As I recall (I'll need to watch the video again to verify), while in flight, the guy's legs float backward - so that he's essentially horizontal. There's no way that could happen unless there are some wires reeling in the lower half of his body.

And the wings don't seem large enough.

It all seems very unlikely.
