Details
According to religious sources, there are numerous saints to whom the ability to fly or levitate has been attributed. Most of these flying saints are mentioned as such in literature and sources associated with them.The ability was also attributed to other figures in early Christianity. The apocryphal Acts of Peter gives a legendary tale of Simon Magus' death. Simon is performing magic in the forum, and in order to prove himself to be a god, he flies up into the air. The apostle Peter prays to God to stop his flying, and he stops mid-air and falls, breaking his legs, whereupon the crowd, previously non-hostile, stones him to death.The church of Santa Francesca Romana claims to have been built on the spot in question, claims that Saint Paul was also present, and that a dented slab of marble that it contains bears the imprints of the knees of Peter and Paul during their prayer.
