When I first saw this video I was thrilled at the idea. Then after a second watch I was sick. Then after a third watch I was left with a sense of amazement and a list of questions like, “Who was the first person to work this out?”
Are you curious what I’m talking about? I’m talking about extreme base jumping using of a wing suit.
Wingsuit flying is propelling the human body through the air using a special jumpsuit that shapes the human body into an airfoil to create lift. The wingsuit has fabric sewn between the legs and under the arms. A wingsuit can be flown from any point that provides sufficient altitude to glide through the air. Parachute equipment is used for landing.
