When Saleh Wanjala hang on a moving helicopter in May, some jokingly said he was trying to stop the pilot from taking away the body of slain businessman Jacob Juma.

However, according to businessman Joseph Waswa, Wanjala, who has since earned himself the name 'James Bond', had been nursing a dream of flying and an opportunity had presented itself.
