The Dassault Falcon 7X jet is a seriously lavish plane. Its creators claim the aircraft is “stretching the boundaries of what a business jet can do”. It has a top speed of 592mph and can fly from Paris to Tokyo or Shanghai to Seattle on a single tank of fuel.

It’s the sort of product normally reserved for the wealthiest of private business people. But the latest high-profile individual to consider parting with a cool $54m in order to purchase this private jet isn’t an entrepreneur or a celebrity. Jesse Duplantis is a preacher.

The 68-year-old released a video earlier this year, in which he said: “I’ve owned three different jets in my life; just burning them up for the Lord Jesus Christ…We believe in God for a brand new Falcon 7X so we can go anywhere in the world, one stop.”
