Paragliding Chef Cooks Cheeseburger At 2,000ft

An unusual flight gives new meaning to dining al fresco. A chef prepared a grill and cooked a cheeseburger while paragliding at a height of around 2,000 feet above the southern Turkish coast on Aug. 16. Chef Yigit Ugur Aydal wanted to paraglide over the lake at Seyhan Dam in Menekse in the district of Saricam. So he contacted qualified paraglider Onur Avcu. The paraglider agreed to take him on the trip — but with one condition. He had to fry him a burger during the flight. The chef agreed and brought along all the necessities: a grill, kitchen blowtorch, burger patty, tomatoes, cheese, lettuce and pickles. The pair then took to the air for the ultimate outdoor dining experience. The footage shows Yigit heating the grill and cooking the meat while flying above the picturesque coastline, at an estimated height of 1,968 feet. He also melts the cheddar cheese with the blowtorch and places the other ingredients on the bun. Saricam, Turkey August 16, 2021 (Onur Avcu) #Flying #Extreme #Cooking
