Wingsuit - High Speed exit from a skyvan (130 knots)

Due to popular request, more high speed exits.

Jarno Cordia and Costyn van dongen exit a Skyvan at 130 knots airspeed.

Costyn can be seen (small dot, 2nd exit) having a lesser exit, first diving down, but recovering and still manageing to climb above airplane level due to the high forward speed.

Anything over 120 knots is enough to go up (given proper technique). Its not the plane that makes the exit, just the forward speed the plane has.

I want to see a wingsuit jumper land without the use of a parachute by landing on a truck driving at the same horizontal speed as the wingsuit man. The landing bed will be heavily padded to absorb the vertical impact speed. I also want to see further advances in wingsuit technology to provide more glidelift and more fine tuned flight direction/speed controls. How about miniature water skis attached to the wingsuit gliders feet so that he can land on water?

@ErasmusIII I want to see a group of girls covered in whipped cream wrestling on my livingroom carpet.

And still that wil be less messy than what you propose...less bloody as well..

But of course feel welcome to try ;)

very nice, still waiting for my chance to do that. either way, i have had some amazing exits from otters, including shocking everyone near the door when i stayed right with the plane for a good few seconds.
