Four huge turbine engines can reach top speeds of over 320 kilometres

Defending Dubai champion and ATP world number 2 Novak Djokovic was flying high on Saturday as he prepares for the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships. Djokovic was a guest of Shaikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, at his private wind tunnel, operated by Inflight Dubai. Djokovic was joined by his head coach Boris Becker, his brother Marko, and his friend and fellow player, Carlos Gomez-Herrera, and they were assisted by instructor Brad Cole.

After a pre-flight briefing, Djokovic braved the wind tunnel which is powered by four huge turbine engines and can reach top speeds of over 320 kilometres an hour. The Crown Prince is a keen sky diver and as Djokovic, Boris and the boys found out, this is the closest you can get to really jumping out of a plane.
