saw a documentary on this guy a couple of months back.
He almost didnt make it to do the first one (the snowy ridge) cos he was supposed to appear in court in the U.S. for Base jumping, but thought f**k that, sent his mum to court for him and went off to do the jump lol

wing-suit jumps are so amazing to watch.. must be the ultimate rush, can't think of stuff that's more extreme and cool at the same time

If you UK guys want to get the feel for this there is a freefall simulator in Milton Keynes. I am waiting on taking the kids when they get a bit older. Cheaper than a trackday, maybe something we could get together in the spring?

The AirKix (freefall simulator) isnt as good as a proper sky dive, its good for practice but the real thing is so much better.
And I believe that wingsuits are even better than skydiving as they give you even more manouvrebility, would love to try it.

I'm amazed by the amount of forward momentum they get with these wingsuits. I do wonder however what the average life expectancy of these guys looks like
