On March 26, 2009, Shane McConkey died while skiing in the in Italy. After performing a double back flip, he intended to glide away in his wingsuit, "a stunt he's executed a number of times," according to Matchstick Prod., the company whose films he often starred in. But he struggled to release his skis. By the time he got them off, he'd been free-falling for 12 seconds and was too close to the ground for his wingsuit to do him any good. His parachute did not malfunction; it was never deployed.
@barinit I really no not know, maybe the look on the cam is deceptive, but I definitely can't imagine anyone to fly so close to the rocks, almost scraping them, without real possibility of precise control of flight path.
@bcs62 everything about it is completely real. Wingsuits have been commercialy available to the public since 1999 and yes you have precise control of the flight path. They are now a very common addition to skydiving and base jumping around the world.
@mugen1237 Many thanks, good to have you here, as a chance of having partners going with into a deep, valuable sharing of opinions.
Pls. notify me, if you have the experience of driving, stalling, recovering a fixed-wing airplane, slipping-back and-side with a copter, and stepping out of an airplane with ANY coat. Than we can discuss about the mothers and fuckers, however my culture does not fit to this discussion.
Horrifying. Just...horrifying. Beautiful, incredibly arrogant, horrifying and enlightening. Spies are made of this same stuff--the innate ability to lie to yourself: "This is good. This will not kill me." The average time spent in base jumping is apparently only 6 years. Now I know why.
yo i enjoy base jumping but this isnt on my league.. this is just madness! #1 thing is try to get away from the cliffs but these guys... wow its thrilling.. and that one guy so close to the ground not even 1meter. wow you guys are so awesome..
Hum even tho this is amazing and would love to try this but... what a waste of ski. I wouldn't be spending so much money a new pair of ski everytime just to jump. Hopefully they have rental :D
We used to call that position a Modified French Frog. Who on this planet would not like to touch the face of God? That is literally the highest of the Highs. I should know -- Airborne All The Way...
how many of them are dead by now?

Add small plane wings to the suit that attach at the chest and you hold with you hands to try to get some lift instead of controlled fall:)
