And yall are only thinking of the eccentric madman side. Think romantic. This poor peasant wants to reach the skies for his love (kinda cheesy but hey what the heck) and, unable to buy a flying winged thing, builds a cheap hang glider

. Even more fun is that if you don't read the note attached to it and realize he dies before he gets to test it, wham bang SPLAT! Free trip to death realm.

(Maybe the support gives way and the glider flies off without you.)
