Description: And then it just gripped me -- and then it released me. And it was very unusual for me to ever experience any kind of pain, so I thought, "OK, I'll just start my normal routine." So I got up and I jumped onto my cardio glider, which is a full-body, full-exercise machine.

Godfrey Hounsfield

The periods between my 11th and 18th years remain the most vivid in my memory because this was the time of my first attempts at experimentation, which might never have been made had I lived in the city. I made hazardous investigations of the principles of flight, launching myself from the tops of haystacks with a homemade glider.

If you think about computing, there isn't just one way to compute, just like there's not just one way to move around. You can have shoes, you can have a car, you can have a bicycle, submarine, rocket, plane, train, glider, whatever. Because you have one doesn't mean you get rid of another one... But PCs continue to be important.

American Businessman

Yves Rossy

I was a pilot and flying hang gliders, paragliders, aerobatics airplanes, and then I discovered skydiving. Free fall. Free. With nothing around you, just a parachute on your back. And you go down. But you don't feel like you're going down. Total freedom.

I'm learning kite surfing. It's a little surfboard you have on your feet with straps, and you have a big kite like a power glider in the air that pulls you. You don't need waves to move, and it makes a big spray of water as you go.

Swiss Psychologist

Norman Foster

The most amazing lesson in aerodynamics I ever had was the day I climbed a thermal in a glider at the same time as an eagle. I witnessed, close up, effortlessness and lightness combined with strength, precision and determination.

Every once in a while, we'd ask my dad if we could get a ride in one of these planes. And, he did take us to the flying club and get us a ride in the Pushpak and a glider that the flying club had.

American Astronaut

Alan Shepard

The first plane ride was in a homemade glider my buddy and I built. Unfortunately we didn't get more than four feet off the ground, because it crashed.

Nate Holland

I think my strengths are definitely - I'm a really good glider. I'm one of the fastest, like on a straight drag race, I can pretty much kill that.

American Athlete

Neil Armstrong

Gliders, sail planes, they're wonderful flying machines. It's the closest you can come to being a bird.

Paul Nurse

I am still a keen mountain walker and an enthusiastic glider pilot.

British Scientist

Glider aircraft rely on thermals or being towed to gain altitude as they have no engines.

No Engine

Flying a glider is popular as a sport and hobby where glider pilots enjoy the challenge of non-powered flight.

Aviation Sport

Gliders are very quiet compared to other aircraft because they don't have engines, making them less disruptive.

Quiet Flight

The glider chair is designed for comfort and relaxation, often used in nurseries.

Relaxation Furniture

Unlike traditional rocking chairs, gliders move back and forth on a fixed track.

Gentle Motion

Some animals named gliders can glide through the air but can't fly like birds.

Glider Animals

Glider animals use their body structure, like skin flaps, to glide between trees, not just jumping.

Unique Movement

Many animal gliders, like the sugar glider, are active at night and are rarely seen during the day.

 And so you just keep the glider positioned in that up current. The launch is the difficult you've got to hold it high up, over your head, and you start walking forward, and just let go of it, and you can control it like that. And then also, like it said in the video,
