Flying Machines on the Eiffel Tower

'


Early adventurers tried many attempts to create interesting flying machines.  Australian tailor Franz Reichelt tried to create a parachute like overcoat which it’s wearer could gently land on the ground.  On February 4th, 1912 from the first deck of the Eiffel Tower (which is 60 meters / 90 feet above street level) he went to demonstrate his invention.  Unfortunately he didn’t succeed and media cameras recorded him falling to his doom!

Encyclopedia of Haunted Places by Jeff Belanger

Our good and least to say comic buddy Jeff Belanger of GhostVillage.com has just released the new edition of the Encyclopedia of Haunted Places: Ghostly Locales from Around the World - Second Edition.  The first directory to be written by dozens of the world’s leading paranormal investigators. Research notes, location background, first-hand accounts, interviews with leading paranormal researchers, and many anomalous photographs featuring ghostly manifestations comprise the hundreds of haunted listings in this directory.

It was a great pleasure and honor to write two listings for Paris, first is the Red Man and of course the ghost of the Theare de La Ville.  Thanks again Jeff and good luck with the book, I am sure our readers will enjoy it.
