Romancing the wind. Got 5 mins spare ;-)

The guy flying the 3 kites is in his 80s, and he's from Canada. He comes to the Washington State International Kite Festival every year.  His skin is like leather as he normally flies with his shirt off.
 
He is deaf, so when he flies we hold our hands up and wave them for applause. He flies two kites with his hands and the third one is attached to his waist. Enjoy!

You must watch to the end to see the amazing landing of that last kite! Make sure the volume is turned up because the music is wonderful and totally reflects the soaring of the kites.

Looks better full screen. Icon bottom right of viewing window when playing.
