FRONTIERS, METHODS OF ESCAPE


CONSTRUCTION OF MIGRANT OBJECT NO. I. : “HANG GLIDER”


The original hang glider was manufactured manually by Jirí Jedlička and Josef Kutra in 1984. This hang-glider left a place between the small towns called Kulov, Klentice and Bavory in the former Czechoslovakia on August 27, around two in the morning. The results of this escape were catastrophic, the blade of the propeller broke and the apparatus fell from a height of five meters, Jirí Jedlička managed to survive, and Josef Kutra lost his life.
