              Wing-Suit Base Jumper Skims Feet Above The Ground

              I have a desire to jump off a cliff with a wing-suit on but I am still terrified to go skydiving. While I try to psych myself into it, I do enjoy watching others risk their lives from the comfort of my computer chair. I’ve seen a lot of base jumping videos and this one has to be in my top 3. Once again the cheap GoPro video camera has created another mind blowing video.

                I think the stunts are awesome in that one, but the video quality in this one takes it for me. You get a real sense of the speed and distance with this video. It is also clear that this is only one jump, whereas the other feels like a montage of many jumps (even if it is only 1 or 2).

              • Zack W.

                I’m genuinely impressed he can fit into that squirrel suit with balls that big.

              • http://blog.dafyddowen.com/ Daf

                Wish I could do this – but alas in the UK you need to have a C-license (min 200 jumps) before even taking a camera up, let alone something more advanced like BASE or wingsuits. I’m only on 40 and just too busy all the time.

              • http://www.facebook.com/people/Dennis-Stamatoiu/100000008811871 Dennis Stamatoiu

                If I wasn’t saving for a new camera and car I would buy a wing suit. I have the same canopy and container he has, but proximity flying in the US is illegal.

                Jeb Corliss was injured in a base jumping accident in South Africa recently.  He should make a full recovery.  Truely a crazy guy!

              • Joe Gunawan

                Jeb’s freaking amazing. Even when he hit his leg and broke it at 100mph, he was able to quickly pull his chute. Amazing and insane!

                Wing suit vids will never get old. Also, I tried playing this track the other day while on a road trip. Note to self, songs that work for wing suit videos, do not work while on a road trip. I felt like a douche.
