  • He's still alive...so give him 8 weeks to mend and he'll be at it again. I think he's one of the few on Earth that really feels ALIVE. I respect his right to choose the course of his life...and what a life it's been so far! You Rock Jeb!

  • @Deadeye3737 his not alive anymore his been dead for ages its been on the news he died ages ago from doing this^

  • @motorboy121 no he`s not dead,he had an accident on table mountain south africa on the 16 of jan and he`s recovering in hospital. he`s blogging that he`s on the mend today. ur prob thinkin of his friend who hit the bridge a few yrs ago

  • @motorboy121 are you kidding me haha just do a simple google search and you can find out.... he had a crash two weeks ago but he will be fine and make a full recovery

  • absolute fucking nut job mate

  • R I P Jeb..

  • @7777REBEL What are you talking about???? He had a crash at Table Mountain but he's fine....

  • @7777REBEL no..

  • Probably wont be doing it after his crash into the mountain today.

  • Jeb, you're not crazy, you're the only sane one.

  • ANYTHINGS POSSIBLE!

    

  • So much respect for this dude right now

  • Jeb Corliss, meet Dexter!!:)

  • Less talky, more jumpy.

  • This kind of thing is inevitable.

    This daredevil hasn't died because of a combination of skill and luck.

  • Anyone out there that can tell @shwig2 N me what the name of the song starting at 4:57 is?

  • @kartracer93 Looks like we are on our own dude.....I tried emailing ESPN but got no response.

  • @shwig2 Shit is fucked up...

  • Come people support!

  • What is the nazme of the song starting @ 4:57?? I need to know!

  • did he do it?

  • Jeb seems like the kind of guy that's never mad and is always accepting and cool.

  • you gotta wonder whether or not Dwain killed himself or if it really was an accident..

  • @DWProductions87 I was thinking the same thing. I would definitely say that he was trying to kill himself with what he said before the jump.

  • @DWProductions87 Dude don't even say such a thing. Totally not cool. The guy barely missed. He was a professional and it makes no sense for him to miss slightly to kill himself.

  • G-forces will be unbelievable!

  • @iiPLaiNLaZyx what at 120mph lol

  • all the respect in the world to you jeb.

  • 3 - 9 million to build some bullshit hot air balloon jumping castle slip n slide pool to see some nerd scap his toes at 300 kph . Feed a small nation please. Or better yet involve me. 

  • He scares me when he laughs :D

  • What song starts at 4:57 ?

  • @kartracer93 I've been trying to find that out for a long time too!

  • this amzing

  • LOL! I like the part at 6:03 where the other guy comparing wingsuiting to sex with a virgin "saying it´s good, doesn´t really cut it" hilarious!!!! thumbs up guys

  • People said Luigi was crazy for trying to land a vx-45. Then he goes and does the 39. Then the 37. Crazy things CAN be done.

  • 2:53) Is she his wife?

  • @fubleduck

    Nope, sister.

    Think he got married with Mancino though

  • @fubleduck thats his sister

  • man! you are the king!

    i wish you long years of happy sky trails!

  • this insane

  • this guy is my hero

  • that was dope

  • PATRIK IL PIONIERE DELLA RICERCA FOLLE AL VOLO DELL'UOMO.

    JEB IL PAZZO CHE LO HA SUPERATO.

  • We have a saying in the NE area, its not an insult nor a challenge, but more of an "way to go", it's: "YO FUCKA"

    keep going my friend, you have lived more than most on the planet.

  • ITS NOT CHEATING DEATH, ITS CREATING NEW LIFE!!! Once we learn to conquer our fears of dying only then will we evolve into what we seek from life.

  • Comment removed

  • You will give hope to those that have none. Good luck.

  • I don't think he should do this stunt.

  • @NoJiggaboo Try to stop him. I dare you!

  • SIR CORLISS.

  • redbull help jeb!

  • @DarklyBishop

    If redbull don't get involved, it's probably their lose, or jerid doesn't want to promote a bad for your health product.

  • life

    

  • landing on that slide is nigh impossible. he's got to jump from a plane fly at great speed and try and land on a slide even if he's flying directly in line with it 1 foot too low he hits the slide 1 foot too high he'll fly right over

  • 7:15 the suicide

  • @NovaLand that was dwain weston dude. he wasnt suicidal

  • 3:24 the feeling of suicide :P

  • the most amazing man in the world!

  • Dude, this dirt torpedo needs JESUS before he augers.

  • @yodafreak321

    no, he's got a strong mind.

    he doesn't need to lobotomize himself by joining any stupidstitious sky-fairy cults.

  • I would lay the wood to Jebs Sister

  • Lmao @ 4:55 he laughs just like White Goodman from Dodgeball

  • On my search for death i really did find my life...shit that's deep...

  • @florinelooo you r gay!!

  • @florinelooo the irony is.. in his finding life...he will eventually find death. but i guess death comes in all forms.

  • @jimijackson you can say that everytime you step in your vehicle. there are a million ways to die. but few ways to live.

  • Welp. Goodluck. :/ ?

  • Fear Defined, Theater of Mind.

  • If he pulls this off, it'll be better than Evel Knievel trying to jump the canyon.

  • Hahaha I went to school with Roy Haggard's daughter. I heard he is the man. That is awesome.

  • I wouldn't be satisfied with landing on a slide, there has to be a way to do it with nothing more than what is attached to your wingsuit...

  • Oby nie JEBnął w coś.

  • (Skill+Knowledge) > Fear = Heaven.

  • u can land on a big ramp thing like a slip'n'slide no joke

  • Aren't all these dudes that do death defying stunts, a little bit in love with themselves.?

  • THIS GUY MAKES ME NERVOUS - HE WILL PROBABLY SUCEED IN KILLING HIMSELF - BUT HE IS SOOOO SHARP AND ARTICULATE THAT HE IS AN INSPIRATION FOR US ALL TO PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT A GIFT LIFE IS - LUV YA JEB !!! YOU ARE A GIFT TO US ALL - HOPE YOU SETTLED WHO JESUS IS BY NOW.....AND ACCEPTED WHAT HE OFFERS - GOD BLESS JEB.....

  • he enjoys the attention from dwain weston

  • why would you have jeb attempt the landing when there are better wingsuiters? if you ask me, the best man for the job is shane murphy... shane's just a lot smarter than jeb.

  • @cdmarsh1 Yeah, if people didn't try stuff unless they were unquestionably the world's #1 best person for the job, nothing - NOTHING - would ever get done.

  • Do it!

    If I am a man or have chane to do it? I'll do it.

    Your life is so interesting and you are something. love you and thank you for portion out .. it's so much please to waching what you have done

  • 11:46 hahahahaa

  • it seems that there would be way too much friction at 120 mph to land safely down a slide-like object, without a bit of water or something.

  • Pause at 5:27. You will notice that the suit has separate compartments stitched in to house this man's gigantic balls.

  • What i like about such people - they inspire others, and Jeb is a huge inspiration.

  • UFO

  • Do it dude !!!! I want to see it , if it works or not .

  • Who cares about what anyone thinks? Do what you love. Period.

  • what does he say at 4:51 i cant make it out

  • @BlaZiN1324 "quadriplegia or death.."

  • @jayc2469 No I meant 4:54

  • @BlaZiN1324 How about... "well, it looks like you're going to be base jumping again.."

  • They said at one point that a back flip on a motorbike was impossible, now ur a no one if you can't do it. Go Jeb can't wait to see it happen

  • Don't do it with the rig in this video!!!!!!!!!! unless that funnel is 200 feet wide, this looks like the one that will get him!!

  • this guy's got a big mouth but in all the big mouths he's the exception he's got balls

  • this guy is my new hero :D:D

  • Loco, dude. Mucho respect. You have seen the other side...

  • Life for an idea!

    That's my man.

  • Fuck Everything , I want to do that.

  • I get enough of an adrenaline rush just from watching.

    Why can't they put air foils on the wing suit like the parachute design?

  • Hes such a faggot with his paper airplane at the beg

  • @IamAlexG

    You are such a faggot that you dare to offend the only living legend on planet earth

  • @BAAAASJE Shut up whuffo

  • @IamAlexG

    U MAD BRAH ?

    COME AT ME BRO

  • @BAAAASJE Go play a computer game

  • @IamAlexG

    Already doing that mate, Game is called: Annoy people on youtube.

  • Does anyone have current information about whether he's gonna do this?

  • great vid really good i hope he does it

  • 101st likematian

  • 1 question how is he gona slow down when he enters the run way

  • @bursasporfc a brick wall lol

  • holy shit that guy got fuckin RAPED by that bridge!

  • three people don't understand the meaning of standing for something, daring to dream and bravery. Jeb Corliss is awesome.

  • What's the name of the song starting @ 4:59

  • Dude , i don´t even know what to say.

    We need this guy, he should not die.

    Highest Respect. 

  • Even though I'm a very conservative skydiver. I think I can understand much of where this guy is coming from. There is one thing about his attempted wingsuit landing that I don't quite see. The PC model of his extravagant chute/runway is costly & rare. Is not the aim to be able to land w/o such aids? How about developing some type of landing gear/harness w/pea gravel @the end (of runway) to decelerate. If you need that huge chute? It's a one-off trick.

  • put it this way. When professional superbike riders come off their bikes they hit the ground going a lot faster then 100mph.he could even land on a steep snow slope. If he just wears some good protective gear and lands on a smooth ramp he will be fine. I'm more amazed that noone has managed to land a wingsuit yet.

  • @cag66 there is a big difference in a reletively short slide on a horizontal surface, and a long slide on a ramp.

  • @cag66

    the problem should be the vertical speed and body position. Ofcourse you will slide, but that really doesnt help much if you smashed on impact. On a superbike, until the moment you fall of, your only movement is horizontal, falling off really dont give you much vertical speed.

    A wingsuiter comes down with a good deal of vertical speed. You come down at the wrong angle, youre dead. A superbiker thats thrown of high before sliding is bound to break something.

  • @jehjehjajamm

    oh, and someone already landed a steep snow slope. Survived but broke most of his bones.

  • "Whatever happens, happens." - R.I.P. Dwain Weston

  • I think the guy who died had the ultimate death. He lived his life to the full and loved what he did. Even his death was to this philosophy, all out, full bore with a moment of terror then instant death.

  • my hero

  • He should use some technique from ski jumping for landing and do that on snow to avoid serious injuries. In my point of view That is the best way to accomplish landing without parachute.

  • I completely believe it is possible to land with a runway. Some water slides reach 60 miles per hour. Jeb will need to slow down from twice that speed. You actually stay slow on a water slide because the water holds you back. Water will reduce friction and heat. Simply introduce more and more water to the slide as he goes down the landing ramp and it will slow him down. It's simple.

  • I want to also land a wing sute

  • @maraispe so go do it

  • Assuming he gets to do this it'll probably kill him. Even if he lands on the slide runway - the friction will rip his flesh off.

  • @lastdaysguitar Really? Have you ever seen a guy come off a superbike? He is not going to be landing on the ramp naked. They are not going to make the ramp of out of sandpaper.

  • FEAR IS THE THIEF OF DREAMS!

  • @swalowedhook fear is what compels me to do stuff.

  • @swalowedhook SO IS DEATH

  • @swalowedhook not of dreams but of reality

  • This guy inspires me im gonna be just like him

  • Go to 05:26. You see his huge balls? That's what allows him to do that kind of stuff!

  • soooo.........when will he be doing this stunt ?

  • wher can i get a suit

  • wher can i get a suit

  • honestly jeb im thinking about doin away with the slide landing all together and goin for the much more contraversal... bat webbing.. net.... wich will simply absord the flyer.. then slide down inner layers while bouncing through t he rebound and e gress out the bottom safely and smoothly and much wider entry window than the slide... yea plan on goin with the webb snatch not the slide later..

  • ur landing ramp shoud look like the refuling hose of a jet airplain and start a full mile in the air.. then it is possible. jebb u wann do this put me on ur team ill help u make this a reality....

  • if u cant land on a sled in the grand canyon. their noway u can land the vegas and the rugg burn will be to the bone. better have steel elbow pads and a massive landing ramp.. so whats the point... might as well jump from the plane straight onto the sled and slide all the way down.it should be more like a funnel with a spiraling tube not school yard slide like but spiral staircase just like they hugg the mountains edge... at some point add a slide at the end... then it will work.

  • and his entry needs to be five time bigger five time widder and five time the the funnel opeing shown in the video.. 3 to 9 mill lol. how much does the suit cost five hundred topps maybe a gran if u get the one with the swish sign on it.. helmet three hundred. mini camera three hundred. lol yea that landing ramp seem to be the problem..gotta be honest i dont see one million in those calbles and towers.. and fibersled.. let alone 3 to nine. be better off landing the grand canyon

  • the ramp would have to be five time taller and a lot more gradual radius in the turn to keep him from going right through the elbow into the ground... the ramp in the illistration is ridiculous.. the g force will kill him going through that elbow..

  • 5:27 - Each ball gets a separate cozy!

  • I so enjoyed this. Getting a glimpse of Jeb Corliss. I hope he DOES land without a parachute, and survives. It's the ultimate tribute to his friend who died.

  • I think what he is doing is great. But I don't see how he can land on a "runway" without breaking any bones/death.

  • Follow your dreams people, follow them.  Don't let society determine your life.

  • I totally get Jeb because I am the weird kid,and I used to race motorcycles on the street ,hunted armed men and gave it up for skydiving,super fun shit I'm tellin ya. Take no thought of sorrow that my life would end,only that it had no begining.Peace!

  • I think he's clear headed about what he is doing...he's fully aware of the risks and he has made peace with the whole thing with his sister etc...who are supportive and understand where he is at. Note also that he doesn't seem to have a wife/girlfriend and child. I think it's selfish when there are kids and relationships involved cos it's like Xtreme sports guys are abandoning there role as a father/ partner for their own pursuits... but Jeb's friends know where he is at and know the risks etc

  • Jsmooth264 you are a dumbass. The guy that died was suppose to go over and jeb was suppose to go under the bridge (which he did). Get your facts straight!!!

  • @MrGta383 the guy was still selfish to let his friend die like that. I don't care about detailed "FACTS". someone is dead that didn't deserve it & your praising the person that lead him to his death, you're just like the rest of these predictable adrenaline junkies. Smart as a genius when it comes to books & facts but dumb as a doorknob when it comes to common sense. Any human being on this earth with common sense knows flying near a bridge isn't smart at all

  • Hell yeah he can do it! Evolution and balls!!!!!!

  • dumb ass

  • Comment removed

  • I think it was a selfish decision to let his "friend" go under that bridge like that . how are you gonna let one of your close friends go under a bridge knowing that he never tried it before, & you're doing 100+ miles an hour. Then he goes "OVER" the bridge with no obstacles, what a fucking asshole decision. As you notice right before they jumped even his friend probably knew that he wasn't gonna make it, thats why he said whatever happens happens.

  • @Jsmooth264 Watch the video again. From 6:50 on. Jeb went under the bridge. His friend was going over the bridge but got too low and struck the suspension cables. Both of them know the risks involved in doing something like that and accept those risks. I have met Jeb before and he does take the time to plan his jumps very well and make them as safe as possible.

  • @Skydvr74 i think with a video like this its a CLEAR & present fact that the wing suit itself needs to be worked on for more user control of where they're flying. I just don't get why they would want to fly so close to a bridge like that, better yet a mountain, & they said they wanna get so close that they touch they sides of the mountains, that's just crazy to me.

  • @Jsmooth264 'Any human being on this earth with common sense knows flying near a bridge isn't smart at all''. Of course it's not smart, it's just a HELL of alot of fun! Besides, if there was no risk involved it wouldn't be half as interesting... There's nothing wrong with doing things just for the fun of it, as long as you're not hurting anyone else...

  • @Jsmooth264 God, damn you're blind.

  • @madmattressiv I'm not blind enough to fly near a bridge

  • thats insane.

  • damn, that's sick. I can't believe they showed that on T.V.

  • don't even make an argument she's trying to do a job by picking out the most retarded *potential* questions from her supposed imaginary audiences. "some might ask" "some might ask" just say "i wanna frigging ask".. love how pussy ass news anchors always pull that shit in their interviews when in fact it is they themselves who got curious.. put a limit on that cowardice.. can't even ask a question straight up.. puke*

  • why was this woman anchor from a babysitting basement somewhere dug out and hired to do the interview? the guy made a choice with his own life and looked for willing sponsor on his own.. who the fuck is this nonproductive piece of unit going around asking another independent thinking man willing to help to question his motives? even if he did want to see someone die, it is the other person's own life to make a decision with anyway, who the fuck r u to question?

  • Dude's last word, "SHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!­!!!!!!!"

  • the hit scared the shit out of me.

  • Oh man did everyone see that guy die!?? that was so sick!

  • Oh man did everyone see that guy die!??? that was so sick.!

  • Ouch @7:19

  • More power to you Jeb! It CAN be done, you WILL do it!

  • "It'll be shattering if Jeb does it". Strange choice of words. Good luck Jeb,hope you make your dream come true.
