Flying high above Ireland using a paramotor

In May 2014, local adventurer Mike O'Shea became the first person to fly from one end of Ireland to the other end using a paramotor.

The paramotor is similar to a parachute but has a propeller attached to it to power the flying contraption.

Mike spent more than three days in the air and travelled up to 10,000 feet high on his 590km journey.

Watch Mike explain more about his epic journey.
