Geeez....When I saw this I was glad that I get my kicks from riding singletrack instead....

These wingsuit guys are nuts....imagine misjudging the approach by a metre....end up like the flies on my windscreen - splat.

I won't lend him our helmet cam... it may come back scratched Smiling (or blood stained)

But this Jokke Sommer guy is nice enough to post some "proximity flying" guidelines....(due to some recent fatalities, d'oh)

I mean come on, doesn't this guy have a mother, or a girlfriend....?

I expect to read about him in the news soon... Sad

Stunning video, didn't understand any of the commentary - apart from the "Oh S##T"

That is just fcuking insane!

You've seen the video where two guys in these suits approach a suspension bridge? One goes under, one goes over... only doesn't make it. May he rest in peace. Not cool! Sad

I mean the dying part is not cool. This vid is pretty cool in itself. If you know what I mean.
