Glider pilot’s know how to fall with style unlike anyone else! But even with that being the case, you have glider pilots and then you have Stefan Langer.
There aren’t many people out there who can handle a glider the way Longer can.
Take this super low level glide over a river in South Africa, for instance. Not only does he manage to take his glider so close to the water that a crocodile could’ve hitched a ride, he does it with so much speed that he soars back up in the air as if he had an engine.
His maneuver is impressive as hell and isn’t for the faint of heart or those new to gliding.
“As a powered fixed wing pilot, I still get blown away by glider videos and their capabilities,” commented one viewer.
