You probably know the Wright Brothers designed, built and flew the Wright Flyer, the first successful heavier-than-air aircraft.

And chances are you have seen the short video of their first successful flight on the windy beach at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina with Wilbur piloting the machine and Orville running alongside it.

The short video below takes us behind the scenes for a look at the Wright Brothers’ early lives and the experiences that led them to become the formally untrained, but genius aeronautical engineers they would become. 

Their journey from being the owners of a small bicycle shop in Dayton, Ohio to the annals of world history is both fascinating and inspiring. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
