Re: [Mac266] Very cool wingsuit footage
yeah.... he is no more than about 6 feet off the ground.... you can clearly see the tracks in the snow from his footage...
Shortcut
Re: [SpinDoctor] Very cool wingsuit footage
Is this real???? That looks to mad to be real!! Would it be even possible??

The shadow on 36 secs looks too small for the height that he appears to be, and then the camera rises

Re: [phonics1981] Very cool wingsuit footage
There's another version on the PD website where you can clearly see his shadow on the snow as he flys down. Pretty awesome stuff.

Call it what you will but he's madder than a bag of spanners. There's a man you'd buy a beer and listen to his stories.

Thats Loic from the Reunion Island.He jumps in Ampuria ( CPCB ) with the babylon crew...
He has been perfecting this and doing lots and lots of training,so youre not watching a one off stunt,youre seeing the end result of a committed serious athlete..and youre seeing the START of some amazing shit to come!!!.He jumped from a chopper....
If you go to Ampuria you can meet the gang there,just go to babylon and they will be happy to chat away with you.

Looking at the still photos it does not look like he is wearing a bird-man suit.

He isn't, he is wearing a suit designed by another company, it is either a crossbow or similar to a crossbow.. the leg wing is a different profile, in the stills you can't really see it that well...

i'm not sure about image 3, it doesn't even look like the arm wings are there.. who knows

Re: [evilivan] Very cool wingsuit footage
I'm reminded just how fucking incredible Jean's low wingsuit jump was in light of the latest english channel huzzah bullshit. This guy is definitely pushing the envelope, and he isnt using a glider strapped to his back either. Sly
