You've gotta see this it will amaze you and put a smile on your face...... Enjoy

Hi guys.
So the guy in video is 80 years old.
He is deaf.
and he enters this competition every year.
I'd reccomend watching it to the end the final is brilliant, be inspired and enjoy, If you have speakers turn them up.

For those without video it is an old guy flying 3 kites with amazing grace 2 by hand and from his waist, it truly is beautiful to watch.

Tell your ol' man, great find. s&f

Feel free to leave off the 599 bit.
I live in the UK near dunstable downs. They have a competion every year, my wife has some amazing photos of kites, this guy is just on another level. The only way I can describe it from my perspective is driving a lambourgini on a track day and winning, then being shown by a proffesional how it's really done. Boys will be boys, but art is beyond me

Was anyone else in the competition because they would have paled into the background!!!! I love being amazed by people who develop a skill to the level of master. Thank you for sharing.

Much Peace...

Very enjoyable, it seems he had the music in his head.

Impressive landings...

I just had the most extraordinary experience watching this. I have two Ocicats, 8 months old. (look 'em up) When the video and music started both of them jumped up behind me to the credenza behind my couch and stared over my shoulder and watched the entire 8 minutes with me.

Yeah, I know they are like the "feathers" they like to chase, but it was an amazing experience as represntatives of two distinct species sat their silently watching.

I love waking up and reading comments on my threads.
Thanks for the input and glad you all enjoyed the video.
