This is not Ironman testing his latest crime-fighting gadget but Swiss pilot Yves Rossy flying over the mountains with his home-made jet-powered wings.

According to Wired Magazine, Rossy is into extreme sports and has been assembling his wings for years already.  When the time came to spread and test his wings, he jumped from a plane at 7,500 feet and unfolded his wings.

Wired Magazine reported that Rossy tried free falling first then a mellow glide until he fired the engines of the wings to over 180 mph.
