Yes, but needs expanding the room leg for a longer ''flight''. Otherwise you come down with leg cramp from folding your legs for God knows how long.

This glide doesn't fly, if it did with the pompous nature of the poster he would have shown a pic of it in the air.
However from my observation, if that's a gas canister he made the cockpit out of, then it definitely would never fly. The propellers are way too small, a gliders props cover a wider surface area. Doesn't look like there's an engine on that structure, if there is that engine can never be powerful enough to lift that.

So it's either you are here to make fun and ridicule of igbo people or you are just plain stupid.

It will not fly. A wilder is having fantasy I guess:
1. There is not aerodynamics in that conjuncture. It will basically drag (which will exhaust the propelling force from the back). If it stops, it falls. In this case, it will not even leave the ground.
2. The quantity of metal on that small structure is so much. The gas-cylinder even without the weight of the pilot is enough to anchor a ship.
3. The fan blade at the back is small and cannot product sufficient thrust.
4. The tapoline at the top (wing) cannot hold the weight. It has no control the pilot can hold on to. The pole at the centre is useless, the wing has no hold on the "plane" at the front or back.
5. The entire "plane" will be spinning midair. It has no tail with a vertical wing to keep the object steady and expel the spin generated from the propellers.
