I admire Mike's ability to deal with heights and remain composed and humorous. I would be frozen in terror.

[jackhartmann]

Mike, the best part about you over all the years is how you interact with others. Such a pleasure to everyone.

[jamesholmes]

Mike Rowe is a great master of sentences, and stories. Thanks Mike

Welcome to my world Mike. I have been flying a Hang Glider and getting high (about 8, 000ft) for over 50 years.
Once your feet leave the ground, your view of the world will be forever changed!

Mike's pure childish joy while hang-gliding is so awesome. You could tell it was no longer about the show but rather experiencing something that, in the end, touched his heart!

[ldysyskeykisuke]

Wonderful! Thanks Mike & Team. I've always wanted to see all of this and now I can! Thank you for continuing your show!

[DeathRockRadioTampaFlorida]

[craigelliott]

Wow wow wow .... two different flying disciplines, both hosted by awesome people ... and Mr Rowe ... I have to say, we could feel how stoked you were after the second flight .. or was that pure relief ... Love your programs .. thank you !!!

[glenmel]

People need to be hitting that LIKE BUTTON more!! This is great entertainment!

[Derf]

Ya know, I tend to judge entertainment (& life, for that matter) by how often I can chuckle... Be assured that just the sight of Mr. Rowe, brings a smile of anticipation, for all grins, chuckles, education & ethics in action, that will follow ! Thanx !

[lesliesteele]

Fun fact, the T2 hang glider (the pink front leading edge one) was made in Chelan, Washington. I worked for the manufacturing company for 7 years. The Malcolm and Laura are amazing people!

[benreid]

His complete joy and excitement was so real that was awesome

[scoreiniraq]

Mike rowe is my biological favorite uncle

[frankdeak]

My dad flew for years and even taught. Sadly never me. You’ve touched one of my dreams. Vicariously I’ve enjoyed your moment. Thank you.

[jeremy.thejeweler]

God. I, and I can not stress this enough, love this man.

[jeffshafer]

Thanks to Mike Rowe I have added this ranch and adventure to my list. Mike and his crew always put out the most interesting topics and do the actual thing. Mike has been one of my favorite tv shows no matter what he and his crew are tackling. Thank You Mr Rowe for your hard work and intelligence in everything you do. Love the quick funny retorts. Keep it coming.

[nelks]

Mike, you are one brave soul. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[Sakrysta]

I’ve wanted to do both of these things for a long time. I did manage to go up in a balloon a few years ago, but it was just a quick tethered flight. By the time he finished the hang glider flight I was getting teary, seeing how moved and amazed Mike was. I want these experiences even more now!
