I flew through the Eifel Tower once ..... in my flight simulator.
To do this sort of thing really re defines crazy. Surprised it happened three times. Thanks for posting.
At least his stunt was caught on camera unlike the Hawker Hunter flying through Tower Bridge in London on 5th April 1968 after buzzing parliament.

Wow, love what that guy did, good on him! There has be something of that flight; some buried photo somewhere.
And if your interested in the painting shown: HERE you go…
Best quote from an interview on the painting site:
“ "What on earth is the matter with the youth of today? In my day we used to fly whole squadrons of aeroplanes through bridges. At Rouen all of No. 1 Squadron Hurricanes flew under the transporter bridge one behind the other." G. Plinston (Sqn/Ldr Ret'd) Flight International (April '68)”
