Harold Simmons from Miami, Florida: “I flew from Miami to the
Bahama Islands…on a kite”
Garry says
the trip is 55 miles, though the actual distance is closer to 155 miles. The boat below actually did all the work, as
Simmons glided behind it in an oversized kite.
It’s basically what we know today as parasailing, but the kite itself
looks similar to a traditional children’s kite, just larger.

Mr. X: “I’m going to hit 3 golf balls…with one swing”
Joe Kirkwood
was an Australian golfer who played in the PGA Tour for decades, starting in
1920. He had 13 wins on the Tour, which
ranks him among the top 100 golfers of all time even today. Kirkwood’s son would also become a
professional golfer, and they are among the few father-son pairs to each have a
Tour win. Still, Kirkwood Sr became more
famous in later life as a barnstorming trick shot artist and the “Clown Prince
of Golf.” He puts on a demonstration of
some of his stunts here, with his humorous patter a big part of the
entertainment.
