The cover is made of brown Moroccan leather and it's decorated with silver ornaments and seven unique stones. In 2007, a seventh copy of the book, which was made specially to be sold, was auctioned for a record 1.95 million..

He's flown through the Grand Canyon in America and across the English Channel. He says his obsession with flying can be dangerous, but he's yet to even get a scratch.
