More info on Wingsuit BASE jumping at http://base-book.com/ In the Alps in the fall of 2006, Yuri Kuznetsov did the second flight of the world's biggest BASE jump: 2000m of vertical altitude used (6560 feet). The first jump had been made just days earlier by Jean-Noel Itzstein. This is my video of attempting to make the third flight. I only got about 5000 feet of the flight because I had a shaky exit and not so great flight. As a result, I had to improvise the landing.


About me: I am a BASE jumper and climber who spends most of his time running the web site http://www.SuperTopo.com/gear My main interest now (other than climbing and falling) is creating gear reviews for the best climbing and outdoor gear and developing a price finder so people can find the best prices on outdoor gear. You can see our latest version here http://www.supertopo.com/pricefinder.php
