Chris Gursky of Florida was hang gliding for the very first time in Switzerland and he discovered right after takeoff that there was nothing holding him in place except his own arms, they had forgotten to buckle his harness to the frame. Gursky, who posted video of the experience on YouTube, said he wasn’t sure he was going to survive. “I looked down once and I thought to myself, ‘This is it. I’m going to fall to my death. I’m a goner,'” He said it was about two minutes before the pilot was able to make a landing.
A fellow I know was going to hang gliding school. I asked him how many successful flights did he have to take, jumping off the cliff, in order to graduate. He answered, “All of them.”

How do you know when you are half way through a date with a pilot? Because he says: “Thats enough about flying, let’s talk about me!”
Just before takeoff one day, a flight attendant approached Kanye West and asked that he fasten his seat belt. “Superman don’t need no seat belt,” Kanye growled. “Well, Superman,” the stewardess replied, “don’t need no airplane!”
