Hey there, high-flyers, and strap in for a very special episode of The Death-Defying Human FlyCast! This time around Max interviews the Rocketman himself, stunt engineer Ky Michaelson! Ky designed stunt gear still being used today, has set numerous records, and designed and built the Human Fly's rocket cycle! We're talking about the motorcycle the Human Fly used in his ill-fated bus jump on that cold Montreal night in 1977. Find out how it all started with a phone call, and ended with a crash no one thought the Fly could survive! But ... did he?

Let's get wild!
