Two guys in jetpacks fly next to a jumbo jet

I apologize if this was posted already but it's pretty damn cool.

"Armed with unguarded ambition and the vision to push boundaries beyond the unthinkable, Jetman Dubai and Emirates A380 take to the skies of Dubai for an exceptional formation flight."

And of course, a look behind the scenes (the making of the video).

Would of been better if they landed on the wings of the A380

Totally awesome video, especially with Dubai in the background.

They make it look so easy... Even the "how to" video looks like a walk in the park for them.

Whenever I see the Jetman.. I always wonder if the CIA or other American agency has gotten their hands on him and now using same jet packs for their special ops.
