An 85-year-old Florida man is the world's oldest hang-glider pilot. Goss picked up hang gliding at 54, and at 85, he is still flying at least once a month at Wallaby Ranch near Orlando. Earlier this year, he earned a spot in the Guinness World Records.

The former dentist taught himself to fly by jumping off beach dunes after reading about the sport in Reader's Digest.

His hang gliding career hasn't been all smooth sailing - he's had a fractured skull, four tree landings and a near-encounter with a mountain bear. In 1982, Goss made an emergency landing while flying across Florida. He thought he was landing in a field, but it turned out to be a swamp.
