Walking or Flying on Titan?

Given Titan's thick atmosphere, high pressure, and low gravity, it is said that anything with wings would fly very easily on Titan.

However, would you even need wings? If a human flapped their arms, would that be enough to take off from the ground given the dense air and low gravity?

In this sense I am imagining it could be maybe more similar to swimming than to walking on Earth... but I am eager for any information on this from someone who knows physics better.

Looking for information for a video about Titan.

As the title says, I need some help. I'm a small YouTuber planning to make a video about Titan. Could you let me know which details I should definitely include about this moon?

Dumb question

Are the dark dunes of Titan lower than the bright areas of Titan?

I just saw this image. Can anyone explain how this isn’t a second earth?

Apparently the James Webb took this picture back in 2022 but I’m only just seeing it now. Is it just ice that happens to look extremely similar to earth or is there some other explaination?
