Go Fast Wingsuit in Rio

Two wing-suit pilots have taken the term "getting closer to God" to an extreme new level.

After leaping out of a hovering helicopter, extreme sports enthusiasts Luigi Cani and Jeb Corliss pulled off an astonishing stunt that might have left onlookers on Rio de Janeiro's towering Christ the Redeemer statue believing they had seen some sort of religious apparition.

Cani and Corliss hurtled at speeds of about 150kmh towards the famous 38-metre high monument.

Haha, get off your fat ass and do something other than make a mundane comment about people who do things with their lives.

The setup is way too long. It's cool, but we didn't need to wait a minute and 15 seconds before he jumped.

How marvelously unfulfilling.

Yawn - falling sideways. What a pity as the hype sounded WOW

Did rather look like some clever 'lateral' camera angles of a bloke 'falling' - hardly 'flying' - 'scuse me for observing the emperor's clothes...
