JUNE 20, 1540
Portuguese man attempts human flight
Yep, that says 1540. João de Almeida Torto designed a pair of flapping
wings that he attached to each of his arms. The design was similar to that
of Leonardo da Vinci's drawings of 20 years before. But Torto designed
his wings with wood spars and ribs, covered in cloth. He also added a helmet, in the shape of an eagle's head-beak and all. He jumped from the
top of a cathedral in front of a large crowd and it is said he "flew" for a
moment, gliding with the effort of his flapping arms, but his weight and
gravity propelled him downward. The helmet slid down his face, blinding him, but he was able to catch himself and aim at a rooftop. Sadly, he
slammed into it so hard, he died of his injuries two days later. Torto is
celebrated in Portugal on this day in June, and there is a museum with a
model of his wingsuit.
