We all know from his goal post dunks that Jimmy Graham is a high flyer, but the Saints star tight end joined the NFL Network on Thursday to share his passion for flying planes.

"I fly pretty much wherever I go. I didn't end up flying here (Arizona) because I was in a rush to get here," Graham said. "I also do aerobatics, so I flip planes for fun. I sounds crazy, but it's not as crazy as it seems. Everything I do is very safe and within FAA rules."

When Graham is not dominating on the field, he's flying planes upside down in the offseason. He earned a private license in 2012 and is gunning for more advance licenses moving forward. I'm sure doing flips on a single-engine aerobatic plane leaves the Saints' front office cringing.

"Once you get into flying, then eventually you want to somewhere then eventually you want to fly a few states over, the eventually you want to flip them," Graham said. "The plane I have goes from negative and positive 10 g and it can roll 430 degrees per second. It's fairly aggressive, but I've been training all the right ways and it's fun."

Here's some craziness from Graham, via his YouTube page in 2012. He also has a ton of ridiculous stunts on his Instagram feed.
