Flying Frenchman crosses English Channel by hoverboard

A French inventor has crossed the English Channel on a jet-powered hoverboard.
Franky Zapata’s hoverboard is powered by kerosene which he carries in a backpack.
He took off from Sangatte near Calais and reached Dover in just over 20 minutes – but he had to stop for fuel.
