I certainly do like it!

Search on You Tube for "Jeb Corliss - Grinding the Crack" for some more good quality wingsuit footage.

Barking mad.

Very, very impressive.

Barking mad.

Highly skilled.

Barking mad.

Balls the size of grapefruits.

And completely barking mad......

Awesome footage.

I wonder how much directional control he has ?

Reason for asking is he seemed to get very close to some of those tree tops / cliffs and a slight gust of wind the wrong way or pocket and ........

An even better video exists where the lady wearing nothing but the parachute:O

Let's just say that the wind certainly makes some funny shapes on soft parts of the body.

500N the video you referred to brings a whole new meaning to "flaps 50" i seem to recall:\

You are very astute, you got it in one ! LOL:ok:

I was going to put something with those exact words in this thread
but decided it might be going too far so "soft parts" was as far as I went.

It is one hell of a video.

500N,

When someone sent me "that" video, it was entitled;

"I thought the parachute was meant to make the flapping sound".

:ok:

That is very good indeed. I now need a new keyboard courtesy of the morning coffee:O

I did like ksimboy's "Flaps 50" as well, although to me the pilot had lost all control of the flaps !



"That" video is why forums need to have a NSFW section where you have to sign in with acknowledgements of what is contained inside.

Jeb Corliss crashed into a mountain in South Africa the other day. Amazingly he survived!
