The Red Bull Flugtag is an event owned and operated by Red Bull in which competitors attempt to fly homemade size and weight limited human-powered flying machines. The flying machines are usually launched off a pier about 30 feet high into the sea.
Most competitors enter for the entertainment value, and the flying machines rarely fly at all. Comedian Jared Freid visited the 2012 Red Bull Flugtag in Philadelphia to interview the contestants.

I was still in dipers when this kind of entertainment first aired on Dutch tv.
