This guy is amazing.

The next time someone tells you to "go fly a kite", maybe, just maybe, you oughta take 'em up on it. This one - with the music - gave me ye ole goose bumpies. Please to enjoy.

The guy flying the 3 kites is in his 80s and he's from Canada.

He comes to the Washington State International Kite Festival every year.

His skin is like leather as he normally flies with his shirt off.

He is deaf, so when he flies, we hold our hands up and wave them for applause.

He flies 2 with his hands and the 3rd one is attached to his waist.

You must watch to the end to see the amazing landing of that last kite.

And make sure your volume is turned up because the music is wonderful and totally reflects the soaring of the kites.

Very nice. The guy is an artist. I still don't understand how he manipulates the third kite.

He could teach the Indians a few things.

Reminds me of the one when Ben Franklin was seen out in the thunderstorm by a friend with a kite in the air. The friend says "Why are you out here in the rain? You should be at home under the covers with your wife". He replied,"I tried that,she told me to go fly a kite."


Never mistake motion for action.
