Insane wing suit action.

Recommended Posts

We've all seen these GoPro wing suit videos before but this one is madness.

I'm amazed how much lift these things generate and how much control they have.

That is insane. It's a "sport" where one mistake will almost certainly be your last...

One day they`re going to pick him up  -  in pieces

Sadly, that already happened in February 2017, just over one year after the above jump was filmed.

Well, what can I say. Not surprising. I'm amazed more of those Parkour free runner people don't get killed. 

I'm stunned they don't brake bones jumping from such heights. Almost superhuman some of the jumps.

Ha, as someone who has dodgy knees I hear you. The impact must be colossal. I suppose some adaption takes place but even so, cant be good.
