A video showing two Jetmen flying next to an Emirates A380 superjumbo jet has gone viral on social media.

Jetman Dubai pilots Yves Rossy and Vince Reffet took part in the amazing display, flying high above the Dubai skyline with the world's largest passenger aircraft, marking a breathtaking formation flight over Dubai to make aviation history.

The formations were conducted over the Palm Jumeirah and Dubai skyline with Burj Khalifa in the background.

The carefully choreographed aerial showcase involved the A380 superjumbo flying at 4,000 feet in two holding patterns. The A380 aircraft was then joined by the Jetmen Dubai duo, who were deployed from a helicopter that hovered above the aircraft at 5,500 feet. The duo conducted formations on both sides of the aircraft and joined to one side thereafter before breaking away.

The airline said that they shot the video to showcase "just how far aviation has come."

The footage was captured from a helicopter flying 1,500 ft above the stunt flight, which was made to look far easier than it actually was according to Emirate Airline.
