Reffet travelled over 100-metres in the first 8-seconds of the flight, reaching a height of 1,800-metres at the end of the 3-minute flight.In previous missions, the Jetmen have said it is impossible for them to fly below 50-metres. It seems that feat is impossible no longer.<a href="https://www.esquireme.com/content/43606-real-life-iron-man-sheikh-hamdan-unveils-new-dubai-jetman-stunt" target="_blank">Source</a></blockquote>
