Flying on a magic sofa
A paragliding instructor in Turkey just took his business to new heights with a stunt that’s sure to attract daredevils and couch potatoes alike — ’cause he’s got a BUY ONE GET ONE FREE SPECIAL DEAL that appeals to both daredevils and couch potatoes.
Hasan Kaval, a paragliding instructor from Turkey rigged a sofa and a TV to one of his paragliders took off a cliff while capturing the whole thing on a selfie camera. It was the ultimate combination of a lazy adrenaline junkie’s dream — doing something dangerous and thrilling while being able to relax on a sofa.

While in the air and lounging on the couch, he kicked off his shoes and swapped them for slippers, ate chips, drank soda and watched ‘Tom & Jerry’ on the television.
What was probably the most nerve-wracking was that he wasn’t even properly strapped in!!! Hasan landed the couch safely (somehow) and said afterward with a straight face that he felt secure and relaxed the entire time.
It’s too early to tell if this is the new wave in paragliding — or a new breed of couch potatoes are going to inherit the earth!
