Man on Kite

Man on Kite

May 10, 1965 - It was on this day that Dick McInnes, a 34-year-old carpet salesman from Kentucky, went for a wild ride on a kite.

The kite was pulled behind a speedboat on the Ohio River and the flight lasted for 12 hours and covered 390 miles. It's the "World Record" for Kite Hanging.

Here's a compilation of much shorter rides on a kite:
