Kite Surfers Jump Pier in England

Two daredevil kite surfers named Jake Scrace and Lewis Crathern managed to jump over a pier in England reports the Daily News. The kite surfers were given an extra lift by some very strong winds.
Strapped to surf boards and attached to giant kites, the men were lifted more than 40ft into the air by powerful winds and carried over the Victorian structure.

To the gasps of astonished onlookers, Lewis Crathern, 24, and Jake Scrace, 25, flew 100ft through the air before landing safely in the sea.
You can see the amazing jump in the video below. Take a look:



The BBC also has a story about the "epic" pier jump.
