Yep. You should see people fly out of this office at 4:00 on a Friday afternoon on a sunny summer weekend. Funny that their wings seem to have disappeared by Monday morning. ;-)

It would be possible, but my science teacher once noted that it would require a wingspan of 120 feet and muscles 8 feet thick for the average human to fly and overcome the balance of weight and size to power and well, size. So no, we may not see a grown man physically flying for quite some time. In about 133 billion years, give or take a few million, wake me up because we should be evolved enough to fly by then :P.

Well, define flying ? Do you also mean airborne ? Our perception of flying is something that uses wings or devices that capture air beneath them enabling flight or becoming airborne. Or becoming lighter than air such as a blimp etc.
It's obvious us humans posses none of these capabilities without some aid.
However, if we enter in the possibility of "Mind over Matter" such as levitation, (if at all possible) then we might be able to say we have become airborne. Could we say we flew, probably not, our perception of flight remember is different.
So, if you define your word "fly" and use you imagination as to what really might be possible and what our brains and or bodies are capable of, you may find that we could be capable of "flying". Weeee.......

well, the most logical or scientific way, is gravitrons ( that is if they exist). If you do some research in the area of string theory, than you will likely understand. I know there is a site that shows you what the string theory is. very interesting. google or yahoo search these key words.. it is a three hour program broken into chapters for you. any ways the gravitrons if can be controlled would allow one the levitate or change gravitational pull. If there are gravitrons than they would make a gravity chamber in which one could train at 1.5-2 times earths gravity. that would be some hard ace training.but you would get ridiculously strong and be denser..lol you would weigh 380 look like a skinny weight lifter but bench 750 anyways...not really
or here is the link i just looked it up for you: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/elegant/program.html

In a big metal object that can move at hundreds of miles per hour and a body that can generate lift. Namely, and airplane. Or with a hangglider or like object. Most studies show humans can't fly on their own, but try jumping off a cliff to see for yourself. Don't blame me if you can't.

If you are talking about flying by flapping your arms with wings, no. Given the structure of the human body (bone density, etc.), scientists figured that it would require pectoral (chest) muscles 6 feet thick. Keep doing push ups.
I hope this helps.

Yeah, I flew a while back. Booked with AirTran. Nice flight.

Only with aid. Man cannot get enough lift without aid...sorry....Have a nice flight
