Got any ideas? I'm gonner try some of your ideas too :D i'll jump off a ledge or a roof or something and hope the ideas work like eg. Umbrella. But i don't wanna get suggestions such as aeroplane or balloon, I mean like what sort of material should i use for wings and stuff or any other things like Umbrella :) i'll probably film it.. I'll be glad when i fly.

As of today there is no way that you can fly like a bird without some kind of man-made attachment... some of those attachments cost at least a couple thousand dollars and a bit of training... but in the end it’s the closest thing you will get. My suggestion, check out these different kinds of flying...

Pick one that you like best, and then find a company in your area that gives introductory flights. For one of these you'll only pay something around 100 dollars. If you love it you will start saving like crazy so you can buy your own flying vehicle!
There are many different options out there; the one that people say is closest to flying like a bird is skydiving. Skydivers say that by manipulating your body through the air you can do everything that a bird can do. Except go UP of course!
It sounds like you really need to get into paragliding... that is the minimum device that would be able to support your body weight if you jumped off a building...
If you have anymore questions about any of these flying devices or anything else feel free to drop me an e-mail.

My friend had a good idea. First, make some wings out of whatever material you think would be best. The biggest problem with flying with wings is that humans don't have strong enough chest muscles to flap hard enough to support our weight. My friend suggested a pulley system that take a lot less strength to use. You pull two cords and the pulleys help you flap your wings. Though the wings would need to be fairly flexible. Well, lemme know when the video is up on youtube. I'd like to see it. :)

first you can use a few umbrella materials and use the metal like a birds bones in the wing and the plastic as feathers they have to be long enough though or you will go splat and start ofsmaller than a building because the 'wings' might not be supportive so do a slide at a park or somthing like that

If you don't want to use a para-glider, I'm sure the U.S. ARMY could use you as a PARATROOPER. They train at Ft. Benning Ga. Otherwise, maybe you should check yourself into a mental institution before serious harm comes to you from doing something unwise. That is a legitimate reason to be involuntarily committed.

If God had intended us to fly, He would have given us wings.
