If you are willing to jump during the day ( from the tree shadows it looks like noon Mad) in the wind and get stuck in a tree after a bad wingsuit flight (really bad), pay search and rescue to get it out the tree. So we dont ruin the wonderful place that brento is by being selfish and hacking down trees Mad

It looks like he was caught by a gust of wind and it was safer landing on the tree than doing a low turn.
