‘Jetman’ Team Fly Alongside The World’s Biggest Plane

‘Jetman Dubai’ are a team of daredevils who regularly take to the sky, strapped to jetpacks, while performing incredible stunts. Their latest undertaking may just be the most impressive yet though, as two Jetman members flew over Dubai, alongside the biggest passenger aircraft in the world, the Airbus A380. Yves Rossy and Vince Reffet jumped out of a helicopter at 5,500 ft, with their jetpacks strapped to their backs and proceeded to drop down to the 4,000 ft altitude of the huge plane before flying right alongside it. The flight paths of the Jetman team and the plane had to be planned in minute detail, for obvious safety reasons, and the jetpacks only had enough fuel to keep up with the plane for 10 minutes. The incredible images from the stunt can be seen below.
