The Raw Structure:

[quote=Mosnews]A team of Russian pilots will reportedly fly fighter jets through a narrow cave in central China in a tourist stunt that will cost people up to 840 dollars to watch, the AFP news agency reported on Wednesday.

The agency quoted a report in Chinese newspaper Hunan Daily that read that the Russian air force jets, including advanced Sukhoi Su-30s and Su-27s, would fly through the famed Tianmen Cave in central Hunan province on March 17-18.

The cave, which resembles a rock archway, is only 57 meters (188 feet) wide at its widest point and 28 meters wide at its narrowest, it said.

The cave is about 280 meters long and 130 meters high, and according to the China Daily, "is the highest water-eroded cave in the world".
