Fly Like A Girl - Wingsuit BASE jump - Cyn Currie
Спорт
Ever had that dream of flying? ... like a bird, soaring over mountains, trees, and rivers?
Wingsuit BASE jumping is what some would say as extreme as you can get. Although I feel that flying a paraglider or speed wing is the closest thing to actually being a bird... proxy flying a wingsuit close to terrain is unlike anything else on this planet. It is extremely addicting and definitely dangerous. However, with the correct background and training it can actually be relatively safe.
I have been skydiving since 2002 and flying wingsuits since 2004, back before wing suits were pressurized like paragliders. It used to just be a flap of material between your arms and legs that added glide when pulled taunt. Now the whole suit pressurizes as you get air flow across the suit, and it stays ridged as you flex and move your arms and legs. Which makes for a safer and easier deployment. Pretty neat watching the engineering that has gone into wing suits over the last few decades that has really changed the game.
This flight is in Europe, where it is legal to fly wingsuits from mountains. So the video is crisp, from a beautiful sunshiny summer day. We did three flights on this particular day from the same exit but riding the tram up the back side of the mountain. Gotta love Europe and their attitude to extremes sports - your body your choice!

This is beautiful! Thank you for this video.
Just started wingsuit skydiving. These student suits seem so small yet I can already feel the power and the range they give. Can't wait to fly with others!

Wow....
stay safe
esse e meu maior sonho...queria muito...praticar wingsuit..mas nao tenho condição financeira
I kindly request you madam to not fly in between two mountain (very close to the mountain).It is extremely dangerous.one collision with the mountain then in that 150 km/hr +speed it is almost 90% death.wingsuit flying can be done by avoiding danger too.Why take a risk, you can fly little bit far away from mountain by maintaining safe distance.We human can't be fully bird.

What you're asking is silly. The whole point of the wingsuit sport is to experience the ground passing by 200+ km/h at your fingertips. Without a close-by reference point, you can't feel the velocity. Yes, dying is certainly a possibility - so much can go wrong. Just remember that you took a greater risk when you made the decision to swallow the red pill instead of living your life inside an incubator. The step from incubator to rl is greater than rl to proximity flying wingsuit.
RIP
