    Default Wing Suits / base jumping ver. 2

    Since iron chef posted one of the best wing suit videos out there, i figured i would toss in a couple of my favs. some are probably reposts, as most of them are a couple years old at least.

    A year in the life - 10 minutes of following Jeb Corliss (arguably the best base jumper on the planet) around from country to country. last few minutes include base jumping in NYC, and landing in the busy street

    How does his neck withstand 330+ mph? And not only that but does how does his body hold up when he goes from 330 mph to like 2 mph when his chute opens?

    im sure his neck is fine. i assume he would go from face first into a dick down position before throwin the chute. this would slow him wayy down. PLus sky diving rigs usally take a few seconds to deploy all the way. its base rigs that open almost instantly.
