While enjoying a hot cup of coffee at a local bakery my wife said to me "look at that hot air balloon up in the eastern sky." I told her it didn't have a basket and it appeared to be a parachute. We watched it for ten minutes and it didn't seem to be getting any lower in the sky. I commented that the person controlling its movement must be really talented at controling it as it seemed to be at the same altitude the whole time. We decided to head over to the local airport hoping to see it land and when it finally appeared we realized the skydiver had a propeller driven by a gas engine strapped to his back and a wing instead of a canopy. How cool.
