If you believe the marketing hype, Red Bull supposedly gives you wings. I don’t know about wings, normally drinking one of those cans of liquid energy gives me bad gas. For the insane pilots that compete in the Red Bull Air Races, I guess the advertising is true. Flying along at 230 miles per hour about thirty feet off the water, at times pulling 9G’s in the turns, ten complete maniacs raced through a time trial slalom course. The winner clocked a time of 1:16. Great fun, made much better by the fact that no airplanes crashed into the crowd during the taking of these pictures.
