  1. This is NUTS. I noticed they didn’t show any landings though, lol.

  2. Justin,
    Did you by chance see this “jet-powered” wingsuit?

  3. I’ll admit that I am in no way a thrill-seeker. However, even if I was I think that this video speaks to the human condition. These guys are looking for satisfaction from the thrill of defying death. But notice how it is never quite enough?
    It reminds me a lot of my days when I was enslaved to porn. Of course, what they are doing is not sinful, but I think the same principles apply.

  4. This is crazy but looks like fun. Our dreams to fly push us to do crazy stuff.

  5. Buzzard:
    I’ll pick you up at midnight. I’ve sown a few sheets together for suits (BTW- how much did you say you weighed) and we’ll head up to the Golden Gate?
    I would do that in Norway.

  6. The questions really is – does Taylor want you to have a wingsuit?! Thanks for sharing this video!

  7. Jason I was thinking the same thing. When jumping off a cliff on nothing but extended armpit fabric gets boring, you’re def trying to fill a unfillable void.
