| Description: | Acrobats Of The Air - American Airman's death defying stunt in mid-air Phoenix, Arizona, United States of America (USA). Various shots, two biplanes manoeuvring in the air. LS CU Biplane with man hanging underneath. Shots of aerial acrobatics / aerobatics. As you look at this there's a guy (wing walker) on the wing - these two biplanes are very close to each other. The planes fly away from each other. They circle. Then the planes come within a few feet of each other. It looks as if the wings could touch each other. The wing walker jumps from one biplane to the other. As the planes separate the wing walker is now on a ladder hanging from the other plane. | |
