SICK!!!

wow. I thought I would get annoyed with the first person footage, but that entire video was amazing. good stuff, good stuff.

PS- the way his fingers are shaking from the suit buffeting sometimes looks as if he is seriously dragging his hands on the rock, and even the wide angle lens, damn, he was close. sub-2 meters at times.

PPS-that near end scene when he clears the trees on the ledge, NICE. even at 200km/h trees look soft.

Is that Kiwi Alan? Reguardless, that is some crazy but very cool flying.
