This may be one of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen. Ray Bethell, a deaf Canadian in his 80s, comes down to Washington State every year for the International Kite Festival. And what he's able to do with those things is truly amazing. Watch all the way to the end to see how he "parks" them.
One man + three kites = one moment of perfection

Impressive. I wonder how long he has been honing this skill? I enjoyed watching people walking past and realising they were watching something a bit more than just a fellow flying a kite, and they didn't have the benefit of the very fitting musical accompaniment.

Wow! Ray is over 80 and this is really keeping him fit and alive.... a Canadian Gynaecologist who went deaf over night due to a condition which effects only 1 in a million. He has flown for 12 hours straight... great way to to keep fit, Absolutely brilliant!
I heard this song from 1967 for the first time in about 40 years this week... it fits quite well... and I wanted to bring this to your attention anyway as its quite an unusual and haunting song... and I like it...
