going through that waterfall must be SUCH an adrenaline rush
Sick Flying Suit Session
There must be another guy in a wing suit filming him from above.
Anyone else notice that Jeb looks like Cam?
Interesting that we've never seen them together, same time, same place…hmmm :alien:
Wingsuits are awesome

That dude is nuts. How can you calculate what your altitude will be from three miles back going several hundred miles an hour?
I didn't notice when I watched the first time but you are right Craig - the poor bastard does look like me.
That is so amazing, must just be an unreal feeling…god it looks fun. I remember seeing a clip where guys were doing barrel rolls and front flips with the wing suites on…really cool.
From what I have seen they have not been able to land w/out a chute yet safely..they are trying though….lol.
Found some How To videos…

"Oh yeah I can peel through that canyon and have enough time to bank left before that cliff wall…"
Mad skillz.
Oh man. He's taking some serious chances when going through that ravine.
If you look through the other videos in his Vimeo account you can see where he was working towards flying through the canyon instead of just above it.
Wingsuits are awesome

yeah, i imagine getting a low shot like that is an incremental process of many 'flights'. the judgement / balls required to get to that point just boggles though. your life expectancy can't be high when you play games like this.
for those of morbid curiosity… fatality stats for base jumping. looks like a good whack of them (27) have been in wingsuits:
With an order to ACME he could pull off my ultimate dream at 8 years old.
Do they have any ability to pull up and therefore moderate height, or is it a constant decreasing glide angle? If the later ….. holy fuck!
