Is it possible to fly in some way?

[Peter_20]

NOTE:
I'm NOT saying I want to fly with my own arms, I'm saying that I'd like some ideas on how to simulate flying as good as possible.

I often dream that I can fly using my arms as wings, and it's a totally WONDERFUL feeling.
I wish to do this in reality some day.

I've got some theories on how to accomplish this:

#1: ROCKETS
You just attach some rockets or whatever onto your back, and they will keep you in the air.

#2: GREAT WINGS
This isn't very practical, because you'll need huge wings in order to have them carry you.
Anyway, it's theoretically possible to fly with them.

Oh well, discuss.

Yes, I can flying using my overwhelmingly large amount of awesomeness.

[Rengori]

I can fly by mooching off of Cim's awesomeness.

[Little Blue]

I use great metal birds, or I would if I actually flew anyway...

go hang gliding

go hang gliding

That's not the same.
I wanna be using my arms.

go hang gliding

That's not the same.
I wanna be using my hands.

how is using rockets any different then?
edit: besides the rocket being able to push out enough g force to make you faint mid air and kill dozens

Hang gliding doesn't really feel like flying, more like holding a flying object.

I want to get the feeling I'm flying myself.

After years of heavy meditation, I have attained the power to control my Ki, or spiritual energy if you would prefer, and I can now use this to fly at great speeds by using my Ki to propel myself.

Superman never used his arms as wings
A cape and a dodgey costume should do the trick

Have sex in the air, or do the lonely thing, then you can use your hands.

Have you been hang gliding then?

Please spare me the sarcastic remarks already.
This is an important subject to me, and those who don't care about it could just leave, alright?

Ths is exactly why I don't trust the moderators on this forum anymore; now you have no excuses left, one of you has even JOINED the sarcasm-fest in this thread.

Tralla-la, hello, Site Staff Member.

Please don't even care about responding to this, because I ain't gonna answer; just keep it in mind, okay?

Have you been hang gliding then?

Yes, and it didn't feel completely right.
It was nice, though.

If that was directed at me, I would kindly ask you to look up the definition of sarcasm so you can understand exactly what my post is not. I was asking a serious question in your serious thread. Get over yourself.

Here, instead I'll crush your dreams:

The only possible way for you to fly is to get on a plane, hang glide, or float away in a hot air balloon. It is humanly impossible to fly using just your arms at this point in time so you should either give up your dreams or wait until science stumbles upon some way to get you in the air.

Was that better?

I never found your post sarcastic.

Also, there seems to be some serious misunderstanding here:
I never said i wanted to actually use my arms, I just said I wanted some practical tools that made it possible to fly; like great wings and the like.
