This might be a little old…
Because it already happened in 4/6/08 which is about 1 month ago…
It’s the 1st ever Flugtag competition in Sydney!
What’s Flugtag?
For my explanation: It’s an event which people jump into the sea with many people witness the jump…
For wiki explanation: It’s an event in which competitors attempt to fly homemade human-powered flying machines. For more detail >> Flugtag
The event took place in Mrs Macquaries Point… It has one of the best Sydney view… Directly opposite of the Opera House and Harbour Bridge… And because it’s Sunday… That day attracted >50,000 people… =_=||… In a sudden, the place has became a sardin box… x_x
It was quite a huge event… They even had the live broadcast about this flutag… For me, the event was simply eye opening (wide and big O_O)… So, this competition was very simple:
Started like this >> Went down like that >> And ended up like this… =.=
What actually amused me in this competition was the dumb fly machine design… Wahaha… Since the competition was judged based on the flying distance, creativity, and showmanship, which means it can be anything that totally out of your expectation that you think it can fly… Some examples:
The South Park fellas with their chopper, a penguin (?!) & Wile E. Coyote with his rocket XD… There was this Mr. Bean with the green Mini Cooper too but i missed the shot…
That day 1st time in my life i saw a flying clock! a slice of flying pizza! & a not-flying air craft… =_=
