Flying Over Sharks On My Paramotor

[@waylingtons]

One thing my instructor always taught me. Never fly over water with and offshore wind. If that wind gets stronger, you aren’t getting back to land.

[@paulfogarty7724]

Scary thought !... horrible predicament...

[@ghosty426]

And remember, you are more afraid of those sharks than they are of you.

[@stewartdeerfield]

Well.. a flying machine with a collapsible wing isn't my cup of tea. Good luck!

[@westy762]

No shit!

[@unimatrix501]

Chuck please make sure you let your viewers know flying low over water is the fastest way to drown. I dont see you wearing a floatation device. so if anything were to happen that 80lb engine would drag you under or hitting the water at speed will get you caught in your lines and a fast way to meet your sharks face to face. Ive fished out my fair share of paragliders who thought flying low over water was a safe option. Others will see you and think it's ok to do this with a paraglider. Please take care! becareful i dont want to hear about you in a later video i'd feel awful like i didnt warn you enough. Happy holidays!

We have been trying for months to find work in the upper Gulf coast and this really motivated me to keep looking. We live up near the mid atlantic area and it's always far too cold in the winter and the regulations make it impossible to do this with any regularity. Thanks for the videos as I just found your channel!

Very exciting. Thanks for sharing your adventurous passion. I wish you well.

I can’t wait to see “ flying into the eye of a hurricane”. You are for sure crazy enough.

[@ChuckyWright]

haha I wouldn't do that!

[@bphilbac]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@synergy021]

Super dangerous. I can imagine if that wind speed suddenly picked up you would not be going back to land but instead be forced out into the ocean. What safety equipment do you have in that scenario? Compressed air instant boat, life jacket, oars, satellite phone?

[@johngemmi3576]

Dude!! You are going to get yourself hurt. 1) learn how to reverse launch. You are going to get dragged down the beach and into the water 2) stop flying over house and people 3) use floatation! 4) read far103 Feel free to delete this comment but please get some more training before you ruin it for all of us. It’s only gonna take one person to complain in the FAA will be all over you. You’re a good pilot. Just need some tweaking on your knowledge which is the easy part! Peace and love ✌️
