Hang Glider Fuels at Gas Station, Takes Off From Highway

Gas stations are usually the stomping ground of cars and, busses and trucks. Oh sure, you might get to see the odd scooter or motorcycle from time to time, but other than that there's no wheeled vehicle that will stop for gas, especially next to a highway.
Or is there? We've recently stumbled upon this a video of something that's a bit different. The master of all hang glider experts decides it's time to stop for gas at the local Lukoil, presumably in Russia.

We have no idea where he landed, though we can only assume that took place on the nearby runway. After he fills the glider's small tank back up with fuel, he pulls away using the rear-facing propeller and takes off like a boss, turning a highway into his personal runway.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
