You know when you really need frozen yogurt, but you wish it could be delivered aerially? Yeah. We've all been there. 

Thankfully, guys like Jeremy Latchaw are here to end our long national nightmare. Latchaw, conveniently, happens to own both a drone company and two Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt stores. Yesterday at Hope College,  he made what he's calling the "first ever" fro-yo delivery by drone.

"It seemed like a pretty good mesh of the two companies to see how it'd work, and so far, no glitches," Latchaw says. "It went off without a hitch."

"Project Flying Orange Unicorn" as he calls it, was essentially a small step for frozen yogurt, but a giant leap for mankind. 

"This is the first in the world, maybe, but this is the first in the country definitely for a frozen yogurt delivery," he says. 

You can check out video here of the triumphant drone delivery.
