Corinth Canal fly thru

Would you fly a plane through the Corinth Canal?

It was built for ships, but that didn't stop Hungarian daredevil pilot Péter Besenyei taking an aeroplane with a 7m-plus wingspan for a ride through the Corinth Canal during the week.

The landmark canal, which links the Corinthian with the Saronic gulfs, might be more than 6km long, but at its base it's scarcely 21m wide.

Triffic vid!  Not for those with a weak stomach, fear of flying/eights or even claustrophobia!!!
