In September 1913, over Kiev, Russian military pilot Pyotr Nesterov hauled his flimsy Nieuport into the first recorded aerial <em>loop<\/em> \u2014 a manoeuvre so shocking that the army first punished him for endangering government property, then celebrated him as a hero.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=1762812620  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/07\/pyotr-nesterov-first-loop.jpg\" alt=\"Pyotr Nesterov\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Pyotr Nesterov, who flew the first recorded aerial loop in 1913.

His luck ran out in March 1915 at the Panama-Pacific Exposition in San Francisco: pulling out of a vertical dive, his monoplane\u2019s wings folded, and he plunged into the bay before a horrified crowd. The greatest daredevil of his age was killed by the very stunt that made him famous.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=106368931  fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/07\/lincoln-beachey-loop-stunt-pilot.jpg\" alt=\"Lincoln Beachey flying a loop\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Lincoln Beachey looping his aircraft \u2014 the stunt that made him the biggest star in early aviation, and the kind that killed him in 1915.

Pilots flew <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/the-pilots-who-flew-under-the-eiffel-tower\/\">beneath the Eiffel Tower<\/a>, sliding between its iron legs. But the boldest Parisian stunt came in August 1919, when Charles Godefroy flew a Nieuport fighter clean under the Arc de Triomphe \u2014 furious that aviators had been asked to <em>march<\/em> in the victory parade rather than fly. The gap is terrifyingly narrow. He made it, and a camera caught it all. <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/charles-godefroy-arc-de-triomphe-1919\/\">Read the full story here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=743225103  decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/07\/godefroy-arc-de-triomphe-1919.jpg\" alt=\"Charles Godefroy under the Arc de Triomphe, 1919\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Godefroy threads his Nieuport under the Arc de Triomphe, 7 August 1919 \u2014 a protest flown at a hundred miles an hour.

The wildest were the wing-walkers, who climbed out onto the wings <em>in flight<\/em>, hung from the undercarriage, and even transferred from one aircraft to another in mid-air. The pioneer was Ormer Locklear, whose plane-to-plane transfers made him a Hollywood star \u2014 until he was killed filming a night stunt in 1920. It was glorious, and it was lethal: a great many barnstormers did not see thirty.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Rolling an airliner over a crowd<\/h2>\n<p>Some stunts were pure salesmanship. On 6 August 1955, Boeing test pilot Tex Johnston barrel-rolled the Dash 80 \u2014 the prototype of the Boeing 707, the jet that would launch modern air travel \u2014 over a crowd of airline executives at Seattle\u2019s Seafair. Twice. When Boeing\u2019s furious president demanded to know what he thought he was doing, Johnston\u2019s reply became legend: <em>\u201cSelling airplanes.\u201d<\/em> He kept his job, and the footage survives.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4Uqyrviw4Es\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;border-radius:8px\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/tex-johnston-707-barrel-roll-seattle-1955\/\">The full story of that flight is here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">A fighter jet under a bridge<\/h2>\n<p>The Cold War produced its own legend. In 1965, Soviet pilot Valentin Privalov flew a MiG-17 <em>beneath<\/em> a railway bridge over the Ob River near Novosibirsk \u2014 at around 700 km\/h, a few metres above the water. He should have been court-martialled; instead, a senior officer, impressed by the sheer skill, let him off. <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/valentin-privalov-mig-17-bridge-1965\/\">We tell that story in full here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=820962341  decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/07\/mikoyan-gurevich-mig-17-fresco.jpg\" alt=\"MiG-17 fighter\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">A MiG-17 of the type Valentin Privalov threaded under the Ob River bridge in 1965.

His signature trick was pouring iced tea into a glass while barrel-rolling his aircraft \u2014 holding a perfect one-G arc so not a drop spilled. He would also fly a complete aerobatic routine with <em>both engines shut off<\/em>, then dead-stick the aircraft back onto the runway and taxi to his exact starting spot.

Swiss pilot Yves Rossy, \u201cJetman,\u201d strapped a rigid carbon wing fitted with four small jet engines to his back and flew it like a human aircraft, crossing the English Channel in 2008 and later soaring in formation with airliners over Dubai. And in 2012, Felix Baumgartner rode a balloon to the edge of space and stepped out from around 39 kilometres up \u2014 breaking the sound barrier with his own body in freefall.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px\"><img data-opt-id=1623500017  decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/ml5psubhxdln.i.optimole.com\/cb:0e0_.b970\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/ig:avif\/https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/07\/felix-baumgartner-red-bull-stratos.jpg\" alt=\"Felix Baumgartner\" style=\"display:block;width:100%;height:auto;border-radius:6px\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">Felix Baumgartner, who jumped from the edge of space in 2012 and went supersonic in freefall.
