French inventor Franky Zapata on Sunday succeeded in crossing the English Channel on a jet-powered hoverboardhe designed, zooming over the Strait of Dover in just over 20 minutes.
After a previous bid in July that ended with him falling into the sea, Zapata took off from Sangatte, just outside Calais in France at about 0617 GMT, on a little platform powered by five small jet engines and carrying kerosene in a backpack.
