"The guy flying the 3 kites is in his 80's, and he's from Canada. He comes to the Washington State International Kite Festival every year. His skin is like leather as he normally flies with his shirt off.
He is deaf, so when he flies the audience hold their hands up and wave them for applause. He flies 2 with his hands and the 3rd one is attached to his waist.
You must watch to the end to see the amazing landing of that last kite! Make sure the volume is turned up because the music is wonderful and totally reflects the soaring of the kites."Enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch_popup?v=nr9KrqN_lIg

Very good they fly those sort of kites near where I live at Dunstable Downs, but are not quite up too that standard from what I have seen. could not think of what the music is called but someone will know.

Thanks I did not watch the credits, I thought that I new the music but no I do not. Wrong Norvin ... you were right. You do know it. It was used in British Airways ads years ago. It's also not unlike music used in American Express ads years ago.

I had the same feeling. I thought it was the Amex one and Googled it to find out, as the name meant nothing to me either. Google took me to websites that list music used in commercials.
