More mad than Fozzer

Postby ozzy72 » Thu Mar 02, 2006 5:31 am

A British pensioner has become the oldest man in the world to do a loop-the-loop while strapped to the wings of a plane.
Tom Lackey, 85, has completed 14 wingwalks - despite suffering a stroke two years ago. Danielle Glavin reports.
There is some video footage on the BBC website (the Video and Audio section), http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/default.stm

They had him on local news the other day. Seems like a really nice guy, but when he said he started doing dare devil stunts and activities like this after his wife died, I must admit I was a little worried.

I too, would call it a life wish...I can't tell you how many people suffer a stroke and stop living.  I hope I can do as well as that (or even as well as Fozzer or even Hagar) when I get older!
