Note: It's in mandarin Chinese (I think) with Chinese sub-titles! I recommend that you randomly skip through the video, rather than watch the whole thing...

^^^^ what he said.

Progress needs people to take a risk every now and then - it means we can either benefit from progress or learn from others' mistakes.

You have to admit, if he could control it properly and get it to fly level it would be pretty cool
