ToyotaPowah 01-04-2009 11:43 PM

Wow, that is unbelievable. I would never have the guts to do that.

tonyvu 01-04-2009 11:44 PM

Peturbo 01-05-2009 05:59 AM

That is insane! They literally come cm's away from the side of the mountain or fly only couple feet above the ground!

LowTEC 01-05-2009 06:29 AM

You seem to have a problem with that? How much better is it that you women love to go on shopping sprees?

I'd rather go base jumping.

well, the difference being there is no way for them to collide with a pair of stilletos at 400 miles per hour.

with that said, I find that video very cool and love it. but it is insane.

i so want to try that. shit that's just like... if man could fly.

Icarus would have been proud hahaha

Ferra 01-05-2009 11:39 AM

my heart was pounding just by watching the video :eek:


But then, I think how scary it is all depend on how confident you are at controlling the wingsuit...
Many people here have driven 160km around the corner on the sea-to-sky hwy or other mountains with little fear...and it is really quite similar to flying these wingsuit near the mountain - one mistake and you are a goner
