poz Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 This is simply phenomenal. It's what the GoPro was made for; [youtubevideo] [/youtubevideo]Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan_k Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Have to agree with you Dan, a phenomenal video. Pays to know your glide angle rather well I suspect. Quite a dynamic wing deployment at the end Cheers, Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeflyerNZ Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Now thats flying like superman, must be one hell of an adrenalin rush and no room for any mistakes. Seems like everytime I see one of these clips the suits have evolved to allow better and better glide ratios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel_d. Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Hope they dont have any accidents, would be spectacularly horrific if they struck the terrain. Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monarchjock Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Sadly accidents do happen. Here is one guy's description of an accident in which his buddy died. They were making a promotional film in which one had to go over a bridge and one under it. WARNING. There is video of the crash but it is very quick and the resolution is quite low.

Guest Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 I know the guy who filmed this shot for the 'dare devils' show. I cant imagine what that must have been like. The verdict was one of suicide. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
