Dutch engineer Jarno Smeets invented wings that allow him to flap his arms and fly like a bird.
Smeets posted this video of his flight over the weekend on his website, humanbirdwings.net (!), and Devour picked it up today.
His first attempt to fly was a failure (he was only able to manage a tiny hop off the ground). But with a little bird-inspired tweaking over the winter, he improved the wings immensely for last weekend's second run.
