This was one of the most wild things I have ever done on a paramotor! I launched from Frying Pan Tower, a 73' by 73' platform 90' above international waters, flew 32.5 miles over nothing but ocean until I was finally over land, crossing the air defense identification zone (ADIZ - The flight was done in coordination with the FAA, Coast Guard, and a safety chase boat), then continued to my final destination on Oak Island. Thank you Richard! Please check out Frying Pan Tower's website below - you can go too!

Well done on making history. One thing you might want to think about is a couple of loops of rope that you can hook your feet into. it might help you keep from hurting as much. Next time do it with a batter powered engine!

That's how you do it right. When you are planning an adventure that is potentially risky you take precautions. I like how you took your time, arranged to have a chase boat, communicated with the Coast Guard and even brought a larger wing in the case of light air. If someone (won't mention any names) straps some floats on their paramotor, puts a Spot Locator in their pocket and without any other planning flies ten miles offshore and drowns it reflects poorly on our sport. Fly safe.

I liked the tour of the tower , and then to see real sharks under the platform just a few feet below the water added to the tension of what you was about to do. Then to kite and motor off the platform , no going back totally committed . Then to reach 6500ft , really above sea level , your amazing . But then again your flights are amazing as well and why i enjoy your channel . Also you were not reckless about how you did it , floatation . chase boat, coast guard alerted , weather updated , strobe,reserve . Your channel is full of adventures and inspires me to do the same .

As a fisherman thats been out there and saw Jaws in 77 I have to say , glad ya made it Last time I was at the tower it was covered in gannets and gannet poop. They would dive into the water from hight like a spear to catch dinner. I used to dream about riding out a hurricane on it. Its surely seen plenty and it still there. Bet it would be an adventure. There was a ship anchored there with a light marking the shoals before the tower was built. Watching you circling around yea 30 miles out all.i can think to say , please dont quit running., please engine dont quit running. Lol Fly safe

Suggestion: as an extra safety precaution, get a rope (either with you ir in the boat) so that in case you are running out of fuel (or any other reason), you can throw it (if you have it with you) to those in the boat, they can tie it to the boat and then you can be towed away!😁
