Flying To 17,500 Feet on my Paramotor!

This is by far the most insane video I have ever had the opportunity to live through and make! what was literally the coldest I have ever been which is surprising considering I ice dive, and this is the highest I have ever been outside a plane! god is amazing and im sure heaven will be 10x this view! can't wait till the next wild adventure. and for everyone wondering this was all done in completely legal airspace!
Thankful for Susie my Beautiful Girlfriend and her Mom for coming out and supporting me!

He's still 11,528 feet beneath the peak of Mount Everest.. That is crazy!! Quite unfathomable how people summit that peak when you see this.

thanks so much! I greatly appreciate it!

I thought of that too. By the way, at 10,000 the pilot is supposed to have oxygen, and at 13,000 the passengers are supposed to be on oxygen.

Yo this is the 🥇 rst video I've ever seen of yours; bc I was searching for"veylon" like... Paragliding cars they make? Have you heard of that? But either way I want to do that, or THIS, SO bad.!! When you were going literally above the clouds and talking about it so happily that just made my day man! This is crazy and I want to learn more about it , I've been wanting to get a pilots license y'know just for small 2-6 seat craft, but I haven't even started... But this seems maybe easier (as in also cheaper?) And also maybe more dangerous... Which as a recovering heroin addict coming up on a year clean might be just the death defyng new habit I need 😁 Thanks again, much. Love from Philadelphia

[@zenshinacademy4096]

looks like so much fun. I was a paratrooper in the Army and had 18 jumps and one of them sent me through a cloud. Super cold and really, really wet. the day was hot and dry when I hit that cloud I froze and had water droplets all over me when I hit the ground.

[@ChuckyWright]

super cool experience thank you for your service!

[@rjb073]

My first jump in Vietnam was from 2200 feet. I was so scared that I couldn't even spit. My next jump seemed routine. My lowest jump was 850 feet, which kind of worried me if the chute would open, but it did without hesitation. My grandson knew that I had parachuted in the Marines and he wanted me to go with him to the classes at the local airfield, so I did. I never knew that he expected me to jump with him. I was 64 at the time and never jumped since the war, but I did it just for him. We jumped from 900 feet. I was kind of afraid, but I put my faith in God and whoever folded my chute.

[@joepie221]

@@ChuckyWright The first time I went skiing in California, it was at Mammoth mountain. 11,080 feet at the summit and you can see for days. I stood there just taking it all in and realized those mountains were there long before me and will be there long after I'm gone. It kind of put my daily worries in perspective as to exactly how insignificant they truly are in the scope of the world. It was a moment to remember. On a different note, the air is pretty thin at that altitude. Did it have any impact on the fuel air settings of the carb? Thin air can be a real problem for a normally aspirated engine.

Thanks for taking us on this epic journey. Congratulations on your achievement.🎉 Too cold/risky to ascend beyond 17,500'? Did your ears pop during the ascent? For the record, you are still 11,500'+ shy of reaching the summit of Mt Everest. Unbelievable.
