Professional pilots Paul Beaune and Steve Jones from the team, The Matadors were the first pilots in the world that simultaneously flew through one building. Spectacular flight was conducted in North Wales within the project Red Bull Air Race.

Typically such studies are performed when flying under bridges, however, Beaune and Jones decided to significantly complicate their task. If flying under the bridge, the aircraft would have enough spare space on the sides and bottom, then trick the hangar was fraught with additional danger: the Duo of aircraft was limited to two walls, roof and ground.

according to its website, Red Bull, the speed of the aircraft when flying through the hangar was 185 miles per hour (almost 300 km/h), distance to the earth is 1 meter. By the way, the stunt was filmed not only from earth but also from the camera that was installed on one of the planes was shot 360 degrees around yourself. Thanks to the recent "panoramic" feature of YouTube, the camera can be controlled directly while watching a video.
