Non Stop Wingsuit Vids…

Here’s Dave Barlia and Andy West flying Wingsuits above Wengen, Switzerland at the 2008 Nissan Outdoor Games.

Incredible!

Felix Baumgartner’s Cave Jump

How about this vid - Felix Baumgartner jumps into an absolutely enormous cave in Paklenica National Park. To the best of my knowledge, this is the Manica Pec Cave and Paklenica National Park is located in Croatia.

Anyhow, equally as impressive as the jump is the shear size of the cave! This hole is huge! Check out a well produced base jump vid where Felix does something probably never done before, shot from several angles.

Good Base Jump Vid, Sweet Music

Those of you who have been following my podcast and site for some time are aware that I’m enthralled with human flight in all forms. So when base jumping came along I was pretty jazzed. I saw it as skydiving but with a since of speed and distance that the viewer just doesn’t get when watching a skydiver in the middle of the clear blue sky. Now some would argue that base jumping/skydiving isn’t flying but rather just falling - I say ‘no way’ and that anything can fly with enough speed. Check out these folks achieving forward motion with nothing other then their bodies.

It’s a pretty good base jump vid, set to some sweet music.

Enjoy
