  • This guys pushing the boundries,im not American so i dont pay your taxes,at the same time im not going to invade you and take your land and right to vote ,with soldiers like that protecting you.

  • Who's filming this.....?

  • @MrJmase1 Nice question... I think that who is filming is the real hero lol :)

  • Very forward thinking for the Army. It would be excellent to drop special-forces outside of anti-aircraft missile range and have them fly themselves to their mission. Talk about the ultimate in ultra quiet flight and total radar stealth. Insertion would be fast and covert. Now if we could only figure out a way to get them out the same way... Maybe a personal helium balloon to lift them straight up to their launch altitude. Hell yes! Why hasn't Tom Clancy thought of this!

  • Video says Attempt? Did you achieve the Record?

  • what does a wing suit have anything to do with the armY?

  • Im not sure i need a link to your youtube page... cuuuzz im kinda already on itt.

  • no budget for audio

  • thats my birthday

  • military equals zionist slaves. Wake the fuck up.

  • Shut up about tax money, we are fighting a war using more money than this every day. Right or wrong concerning the war it doesnt matter when a single sortie by a fighter pilot or transport of supplies costs equal if not more than this. DEAL WITH ITTTTTTTTT

  • now that's how we should be invading Afghanistan.... with squirrel men.

  • The guys complaining about them using their tax money for this would rather have it spent on Obama's next golf outing.

  • @drbackjack which is a hell of a lot less expensive than doing what they just did

  • Wow all you assholes who bitch about your tax money going to anything the military spends it on can just go ahead and shut the fuck up. Because whether you think its worthy or not, you are nothing but an ungrateful civilian. Go cry when your precious Whitney Houston dies, and read all about Brad and Angelina, but fuck, when a service member dies, i mean thats expected right? Ungrateful fucks....

  • @Chiflesful "shut the fuck up." Isn't the right to mouth off one of the freedoms soldiers take an oath to protect. You're not one of those people that believe that citizens only have the right to freedom of speech if it's something you already agree with are you? I didn't have a problem with stunts like this as long as it can be directed towards practical training. But on a side note - How many bases in the United States have we closed as compared to our foreign bases?

  • @dogmen1138 I really can't remember the last time a foreign base was closed. That would be an interesting way to stimulate the economy in some of these towns that have nearly died after a military base was closed. Close a foreign one then transfer those troops to reopen a base in country.

  • @dogmen1138 What I don't agree with when it comes to military recruitment is when they sponsor a nascar team, motocross team, Indy car team, tractor pull team, etc... I really believe that recruiters should mirror the military in the physical condition soldiers end up in. Maybe seeing a recruiter missing his legs or an arm would better frame the career some of these wet behind the ears teenagers are signing up for. You know, just a little of reality.

  • @dogmen1138 Have a friend who punched his wife in the face early one morning because he woke up in a panic and forget that he had been states side for the last two weeks. I remember when he signed up. I suggested a few things he ask of the recruiter and he finally got the guy to fess up to the dangers and the reality of military service. He got a better deal out of it. Recruiting using flashy commercials, video games and yahoo toys most personnel will never touch is disingenuous.

  • He missed Altus AFB. Someone had to go pick him up were he landed.

  • Wow. What did it cost to take that C130 up to 32k? At $5/gallon, that was one damn expensive day playing flying squirrel! We're payin' for this horsehockey?

  • @55DepotStreet while I would agree it's a bit expensive for personal glory, when you consider the pilots need so many flying hours a year to maintain airworthiness and the planes need to be run AND the parachutists need practice it's probably not that much more expensive than if they didn't do it, but instead went around in circles somewhere.

  • lol shows how retarded the us army is

  • OMG that's the Mothman

  • Dont care how strong ya Army is.......The people run the show

  • Propaganda video to make kids believe that they too, will be flying in cool wing suits, if they join the Army.

  • @TheTrollOfTheTube It's true if by wing suits you mean broom, and by fly you mean push.

  • so the us spent almost $700 billion on military budget, and we get this crapy 240p video. wow i guess hd is expensive!

    source is wikipedia, it won't let me post the full link.

  • @jinzologisch you're an idiot , honestly.

  • Look up Jeb Corliss and see him put this guy to shame. :D

  • @DjMoonStrobe Yea,right up until he smacks the mountain in South Africa.

  • the real skill is from the guy recording it with different angles

  • Flaps 15, celar to land gear down ! :D

  • The camera man is way more impressive!!

  • We call it propaganda. Who record this?!

  • @MisterBadNews and why do you even watch it if its "propaganda"?

  • its really useful to go on a plane really high and than jump out and than land on the ground, its good for economy

  • Yeah! I live in Oklahoma so this is what I paid 2k for in taxes in 2010?

  • @x9x9x9x9x9 yes 1999.50$ went to SSgt Ben Borger and 50 cents went to a Marine that saved his buddy's life in Afghanistan by taking out an enemy gunman....

  • @x9x9x9x9x9 : So, you only worked 1 month last year, or?...

  • @x9x9x9x9x9 If you pay 2k in taxes, don't whine about taxes.

  • @aluisious I'm not complaining. I'm just saying it could have gone to better uses. I only pay 2k because I only worked for 4 months and I still have the fortune of claiming myself as a dependent.

  • @x9x9x9x9x9 WTF!!

  • @x9x9x9x9x9 In Belgium they are raising the taxes, while we already have one of worlds highest tax rates just to give so called refugees money.... Refugees which leaves their country not for war but for a very easy life by getting money shoved in their pockets.... and what do they return? criminal activities and demonstrations about politics in their own country which they fled! I rather have and army with such a technology then what we have now in Belgium!

  • @Steviedatv Thank You. That really is a shitty situation there. You guys have such a horrible history. Raising taxes to pay the refugees is just down right stupid.

  • "To get all the nitrogen out of our system" yeah that would kill you.

  • Active Duty Army here. Been deployed to fight from this country and my Battles only to have disrespectful civilians talk trash to us? Wow. Classy.

  • Well, did he set new record?

  • You guys don't have SHIT on Jeb Corliss... and that is coming from a military member.... WEAK

  • I FOUGHT THE LAW AND THE LAW WON!!!!!!!!!!

  • hey, whats that large black thing clearly visible to the naked eye? lets shot at it!

  • @iphuckHondas lol soo true...

    US soldier: "shhhhh maybe they cant see us....

    *shots fired*

  • I don't endorse anything that involves taking away another life. Waging war is not self-defense. Someone can say they will kill me but unless they are 5 feet to 1 mile away from me with a knife, I have no reason to go look for them and kill them. The foreign terrorists are no threat to my country, regardless of how you feel about 9/11. I assure you 9/11 could have been prevented and there is more than enough evidence to suggest we had several chances of capturing the terrorists involved that day

  • @vilane421 just admit it, you're a coward, living in mommies basement, scared of your own shadow.....go back to your xbox, till mommy calls you for supper.

  • @phrog46crewmmaf

    How am I a coward? I'm not the one controlling unmanned drones into "enemy territory" and bombing unarmed civilians. I'm the one against our government's corruption and can be labeled a terrorist if they suspect me looking at any corrupt government official the wrong way. That monologue something you've been working on for a while? Keep up the tough guy act, you're getting there!

  • @vilane421 because you've never done anything in your little sorry life, but whine about something that you notting about. I hope they do label you as a terrorist and put you away for life, so you have to live with a guy named Bubba......I served with men like SSG Borger for almost 30 yrs , so I got the T-Shirts. The worst soldier I ever had in my ranks, is more of a man than you'll ever be. So keep crying about drones and what ever else you can in mom's basement. Cause your useless.

  • @phrog46crewmmaf

    Ill leave it at this. I am aware of everything happening overseas. The private contractors, the unarmed civilian employees, and poor conditions and regulations of the occupation in the middle east. You KNOW about the bullshit and you INSIST that you serve a greater good because you run football routes with heavily fortified vehicles and state of the art weaponry. I would be honored to tell the "sad news" to your family if you really think that highly of yourself, hero.

  • @vilane421 well said

  • nice also see rcsuperhero (dot) com for more flying man stuff

  • 240p we meet again

    

  • Dis the cameraman et the record too?? :P

  • this wingsuit is pretty good idea for paratroopers. hope it's practical in warfare

  • Army Strong! Hooah!

  • So many butthurt anti-americans here. Yea, our country has it's problems, so move to Somalia for a year and see if you like it.

    Bunch a pot-smoking hipsters you all are...

  • @thewolf2021 the fuck you're tellin'! Compare US with Somalia? You moron don't know any shit about Somalia, about the invasive influence of your sick state in that poor country. Your precious soldiers died next to me in Iraq for nothing! NOTHIN' n' oil. You the shit don't know anything about war, about your fuckin' brainwashing government. US fucks Somalia, fucks Iraq, fucks Afghanistan, fucks Sudan... so and now you little no-one whant to piss 'round here? You neoliberal Asshole

  • lol to most the keyboard warriors out there saying there goes my tax money makes me laugh hard cus most of you don't even have a significant job or you either live in your parents basement.Stop complaining and do something with your poor little lifes.

  • 70% of our national budget is spent to maintain individuals that are collecting government benefits such as unemployment, wellfare, social security, pensions, etc. I don't think ARMY wingsuit flights are the issue we need to argue over. BTW, the average American receiving government assistance is now making $300 a month more than the average American not receiving a government check. That is the problem.

  • Waste of money, I'm not paying taxes for captain douch to compensate for his tiny dick. Fuck you America.

  • @seanSgray its ok america hates you too, you fucking retard

  • @seanSgray Then leave dickwipe. I swear to god if you said that around me I'd rip your head off and shit down your neck.

  • @seanSgray

    Get out of here kid. I bet you don't even have a job yet to contribute any taxable income. Tax is a small fee for freedom fighters to go sustain our rights. Tiny dick? This guy has more dick than you, he is BASE jumping...one of the most dangerous activities on earth. You are a waste of space in America, you are like some domestic terrorist...get out of here and move to Afghanistan, where American soldiers can slit your throat upon violent provocation.

  • @SlapMarket

    Your a tool.

    Big.

    Ol

    Fucking.

    Tool.

  • fuck the military. you have no idea how much money they waste

  • @DiamondPilotDan

    You are not even remotely close to creating a worthy argument. They waste money? You join the Army, do your time, and get a FREE education in many various listed state universities. This isn't even wasting money! This is recreation, which every human being does...they funded it. Besides, they spend more money protecting our country; and NASA does help, too. I think the people wasting money are the ones who are lazy and feed off welfare, we pay for poor lazy people to live.

  • @SlapMarket well i only read the first bit of that big boring comment, but really.. do you know how much jet fuel costs? do you know how inefficiently they fly? i wasn't talking about scholarships.. we pay for people's welfare but we also pay for the military's jet fuel. one minute of fuel burn costs more than months of welfare for someone

  • @DiamondPilotDan its chump change compared to the wars we fund, this comment would have looked much better on a vid about the war on terror.

  • @MrUSA96 great job changing the subject

  • @DiamondPilotDan i dont see how i changed the subject, i simply made my point

  • @MrUSA96 lmao alright..

  • @DiamondPilotDan LOL i just looked at your videos LOLLLL dumb country redneck

  • how bout all the people writing paragraphs that have nothing to do with this film go find a message board and preach your stupid thoughts to someone who has the time to get in a argument with you and stop spamming the damn comments. WE DONT GIVE A DAMN ABOUT YOUR THOUGHTS!

  • So did the camera man break the world record too?

  • @drhausful no its chuck norisse ( you know... the fastest matter in the world...) nothing special just Chuck norisse..

  • @drhausful no, it was superman, that doesn't count.

  • @drhausful This isn't footage of his atempt :p

    "Uploaded by MilitaryNewsNetwork on Apr 10, 2010"

    "Army's Golden Knights will attempt to break the world record for distance flying in a wing suit on April 14th, 2010."

  • All you people bashing this practice (complaining about tax money spent) are truly and PUBLICLY short-sighted.

    Imagine this,

    You are working to help save starving families in an earthquake stricken land on the border of Iran. You get a little too close to the border and the Iranian Army snatches you up. Now we just can't fly in to pick you up, now can we?

    Hmmm, how do we get a special ops team in there under the cover of night to come and snatch you back up before any harm is done to you?

  • @mickissomewhere OR WORSE YET! They relocate you far from the border and you become a pawn for hostage trading?????

    Which is what would actually happen.

  • The guy under me is a dumbass

  • @somedude84961 I must concur! It's amazing how ignorant people here in America have gotten.

    They actually believe that if we had no defense we would be living in peace. I mean that would be great and beautiful and I really do wish that was reality!!!

    But,,,,,, there are millions of people out there who would view this as a weakness ("Muslim Extremists") And, they would quickly take advantage of all the infidel "Happy Hippies" and convert or kill them in a heartbeat! They are instructed to do so!

  • america are soooo rich

  • @bukharihizam Rich in what? We're broke and stupid.

  • what a waste of tax money. "Army Strong" is not going to get us out of bankruptcy.

  • I seriously wish people like respected84 would just keep their mouth shut and/or leave the United States. It's no reason the world frowns on us when we have ignorant people like him/her.

  • Don't like where your taxes go, go somewhere else. We as a country have to invest in new technologies and perfect them to be of any use.

  • These people complaining about where their tax money goes to. What else should the military be doing in their free time? Are rubbish collectors suppose to collect rubbish from day to night rather than their usual shifts?

  • Narrator sounds like the explosives guy out of Tropic Thunder

  • Seriously? Why are all you people leaving these ridiculously rude comments? I sincerely hope you people aren't Americans. Disagree with the political scene- fine- but these guys fight for us no matter what the ruling party says. The idea is to protect you and your rights. And you insult them... it just doesn't make sense to me. For the record, I'm not in the military.

  • @Eklipse113 Just naive, you'll probably learn someday...

    protecting your rights? HA! get a clue...

  • @hintzofcolorconcepts i for one AM in the military, and you sir can kiss my ass. when it's not strapped into an AH-64 PIC seat anyways.

  • @ER160990C I am truly sorry for you. You think the military considers civilian rights important when they were paying civilian doctors to inject unknowing civilians with radioactive isotopes to see what the health effects would be?

    That really happened the doctors were arrested and the military brass that did it were pardoned. It happened to an friend of mine that died, what happened to his rights?

  • @ER160990C as far as kissing your ass goes, you bear it and we'll share it. LOL

    Please do some research and find out what the military industrial complex is actually up to if they have not completely brainwashed you already.

    I know it feels good to take pride in your country, I used to feel the same way until I learned what is actually going on

  • @hintzofcolorconcepts Your english is horrific

  • Its horrible what has been happening all along...

    The whole bloody history of this world is horrible!!!

    When will people wake up and realize those promoting violence and defense are the evil we need to shun?

  • @hintzofcolorconcepts i can literally see the bullshit flowing from your mouth.

    violence is part of human nature and wtf is up with promoting defense?

    as for history beeing horrible......what?

    have you ever heard of some of the awesome things people did its all history!

    you are naive enough to believe that everything is bad.

    you, sir, are either depressed off your arse or extremely naive.

    good day.

  • @Jupitergamez I'm not depressed or naive, I've been extremely disappointed in our species since grade school. When I learned that evil has triumphed over good time and time again throughout our history and learning the fact that humans for the most part have behaved worse than wild animals, it was most upsetting to me.

    I am ashamed to be a member of a species that would tie one of its own to stake and light a match or commit mass murder for profit.

  • @Jupitergamez The "awesome" things people did? Whatever good some few have done doesn't make up for the atrocities committed my the many.

    We are part of quite possibly the worst species in the universe as far as cruelty goes.

  • @hintzofcolorconcepts there is no doubt about that i agree but still why worry?

    we're all gonna kick the bucket sooner or later(probably sooner) and the whole planet is gonna get destroyed.

    kick back, sip your coke and watch the world crumble around you.

    have a nice day :D

  • @hintzofcolorconcepts We are the worst species in the universe as far as anything goes. The only good characteristic we have is technological advancement and that is only "good" because "good" is a relative term. The only thing we are universally good at is fucking the environment up...

  • @Eklipse113 HAHAHAHA good one..

  • @Eklipse113 they serve the ruling political power they go and secure oil etc , there is no one trying to break into your house idiot

  • @Eklipse113 Amen. All these idiots don't even know what it's like to fight for their country because they just sit on their butts eating big macs watching family guy while our millitary is fighting for our lives and theirs.

  • @Eklipse113 for us? are you fkn kidding me? they fight for money and government, don't be such a fkn hypocrite. We americans are the Nazis of XXI century, we think about ourselves like we are the best fkn nation in the world (200 fkn yrs old, really?), like we are the "good" country fighting for "better world", for "new order" that is best for us. We're not killing Jewish people (Nazis, Russian Empire) or Christians (Roman Empire), we are killing and humiliating Muslims... Shame on us!

  • @tommymike21 what about the crusades and even india. we aren't the only country to kill muslims you retard how about you go look at history. by the way the nazis and russians werent the only countries to persecute jews.

  • @Eklipse113 If no one fought these ridiculous we wouldn't kill millions of innocent people and we wouldn't give these ruthless politicians power. We as Americans have very little right with the NDAA and patriot acts and we make our selfs more liable for attack by unlawful wars. If you give up your liberty for security you will eventually lose both, which we have, time to wake up.

  • @Eklipse113 Finally common sense...

  • @Eklipse113 I see your problem... You got it all wrong. These guys will fight for ruling party no matter what You the people say. Unless you call fight for oil - fight for you (so you can keep your SUV)...

  • @Eklipse113 "...The idea is to protect you and your rights..." How? Invading other nations!? Right.

  • @NmPr78 Well the army is just a dog that does what ever its master (Government) tells it.

  • @BlackIce131 you couldn't even survive Basic. I bet you would Chapter out within the first 3 weeks. Go ask mommy to make you a hot cocoa and a snack, Kid.

  • @whipdick Sorry not trying to disrespect you. I know I would leave too, cause I can't stand no shit with people shouting at me. But it is bad when Governments take advantage of military power to get what they want, not to protect people. Most of the rude comments on here are from people trying to compare their penises like it matters.

  • @BlackIce131 I do agree with you about our Gov't abusing shit. Even though I am Army, I get sick of the shit too, but us as soldier suffer too much to further tolerate slander. Not totally aimed at you, just saying in general. Apologies if i came off rough before. BTW- Basic sucked shit.

  • @Eklipse113 The US army fighting for your rights is just a bullshit story. We all know these guys are always far away from the country they are supposed to defend, too busy occupying sovereign states and killing innocent civilians. It's not your precious rights they fight for, it's for the greed of a small club that controls about everything in your country. This includes the news, which they use to shape your opinion in their favor. Fact is, many young people died for nothing.

  • @Eklipse113 Actually right now they are not fighting for us ver in the middle-east, they are fighting for the oil corporations and the defense contractors. It's not their fault though, they don't know whats going on, they think they are doing the right thing, some just need to make money and go to school, i respect them but in no way are they helping us be free and prosperous by being over there, if anything that is making it worse over here. Down with this corrupt piece of shit government.

  • yeah go for it...

  • armyignorantidiots com

  • army stupid

  • ever wounder how much that must of cost for them to do this jump? an hr up there befor hand .....

  • i'm a child now?! am i still inside your mother? this just got weird

  • i sound like a little (i'm sorry; LIL) bitch?!; you can't even hear me faggot

  • look, im not trying to impress anyone but, I CHANGE MY LAPTOP BATTERY WHEN ITS LOW AND BLINKING!!!!! see? im a badass too

  • SOLDIER = SHEEP

  • @tupac41584 You wouldn't last a day in the life.

  • @tupac41584

    I smell brainwash.

  • WOOOO 420th like! :D!!!

  • I think ill pass, i bitch about 65 degrees F

  • its looks like dark Gandalf out of the levitation spell

  • what the hell is this jeb corlis can do this 50 times and he'd consider it to be a normal day at work !

  • @treelizard99 Right....Except Jeb has never jumped from this altitude. Oh, and this is a WORLD record, so, no, Jeb has not gone this far either. So, what were you saying?

  • this is my tax money??

  • @respected84 No it's everyone's.

  • @respected84 yes this is your tax money. Do you even know what a Wing Suit is capable of? Special forces are using them now in plane jumps and helicopters. It allows a lot of soldiers to bail from an vehicle in the air, and stealth land. They can literally fly for a while, and pull the shute at the last 25 seconds. This is better than paratrooping out and seeing a person slowly come down for 8 minutes or more while you get a lock and fire on them. Come on man! Be proud!

  • @respected84 would you be saying the same thing if they used these in war so when they halo jump they can travel further without the airplanes being detected on radar cause thats what they could be trying to do

  • @respected84 Your joking right? when some random country attacks your you will be crying like a fucking baby for these guys to win it

  • @respected84 yeah... well half of it

  • Comment removed

  • @respected84 yep.

  • shitist army in the world pmsl HAHA

  • aren't really marines yet army

  • @IVIATT123456789 In no way.

  • @IVIATT123456789 The Army is the only branch that can fully support itself.

  • Jeb Corliss owns u.

  • @BenAwakeAWhile Well, since this was a WORLD record, Jeb does not "own" him.

  • now they need to attach machine guns on both of his hands, then he is good to go for an airfight :D

  • i love the army suck it bin laden

  • more of my tax dollars down the drain.,

  • @dynomike1964 actually the wing suit is worth every penny. This technology (and it's ever changing) will allow for spec ops to cross into hostile environments and get a task done with minimal colloidal damage. Other methods of entry are much more expensive. Right now it is a gimmick but it also has very real applications. But that's my opinion. Have great day.

  • @ one warm dragon

    360p smart one

  • U.S. army is the bigest bullshit on this planet!

    SHAME ON YOU!

  • Hmm im confused that who filmed this...was there two mans flying or was this a total fake video?

  • @Renkaanelama Didn't you listen to the narrator? The world record attempt was going to be made 4 days after the video. He was successful btw. The video here shows other jumps made with cameramen filming.

  • seriously.....WHO THE FUCK IS FILMING THAT????

  • da da dadadadada da da!!!!!!!

  • @KROMEkid240sx the military would never use this as a prime way to insert even the most elite....that's why there's HALO and or HAHO insertions

  • @UrbanGorrilla15 why isn't it effective to have a squad of SF troops use a wing suit to insert as opposed to a HALO or HAHO insertion?

  • What about the camera man?He broke the record too

  • @hyunki0510 I don't think he was in a wingsuit..

  • @hyunki0510 No, the record attempt was done solo. The video here was other prep jumps.

  • @hyunki0510 He probably wasn't wearing the suit.
