This is so amazing I had to share:
 
The man flying the 3 kites is in his 80s, 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 2 with his hands and the 3rd one is attached to his waist. Enjoy!
You must watch to the end to see the amazing landing of the last kite! 
I would have those kites so tangled up, you could never get them separated again! And of course, make sure the volume is turned up because the music is wonderful and totally reflects the soaring of the kites.  Beautiful!

KUDO!!
 
Love it Daniel, thanks for sharing!  It makes me quite envious... I generally can't keep a single kite up in the air for more than 30 seconds at a time!

Wow! Amazing. Talk about coordination, he has it. I wish I could fly one kite like that. Thanks for sharing Daniel. 😃
