Swiss pilot Yves Rossy, or “Jetman”, flying near Mount Fuji in Shizuoka prefecture, Japan. Rossy, with jet-engine powered wings strapped on his back, circled the country’s highest mountain nine times over one week. In each flight, he dived from a helicopter, soared as high as 3,657 metres and parachuted back to earth.
