Jet Man

[Hobie]

This is amazing.

[TedH]

Very cool!

[Hungarian]

amazing....that guy also has some kahunas

[kimwcook]

That'd be a kick in the pants.

[Booger Bill]

I feel like a kid again when the old timers spoke german when I wasnt suppose to understand!

[adirondakjack]

He's a pilot that has reduced the jet aiplane to the absolute minimum of machinery.

[Rusty]

You would think that if he just registered it as experimental like all the guys do in the EAA it would be OK.

[Sixgun]

Whoa! I like a little action in my life from time to time but...........I like to limit it to cool guns, a neat hunt, or maybe driving the Jeep over small trees in other people's front yards .

The odds are, well, its just a matter of time before he spins out of control and makes a pancake of himself.-------------Sixgun

[Leverluver]

What a weenie. He's got engines. Now this guy flies on testosterone alone, well maybe with a dab of stupid thrown in.

After you have read the inspiring quotes and gazed at the beautiful Matterhorn, go back and look again, maybe several times. Starting at the upper right of the screen, you will see a tiny vapor trail and if you watch real close (get close to the screen) you can watch him traverse the entire face of the Matterhorn.

For those that prefer rock to classical, below here is the same video

Whatever you do, listen to the end where you "hear" him go past into the canyon.

And no it's not one nut. It's a trend. Wonder what their life insurance costs?

Leverluver,
Those wingsuit guys are crazy!! I could not believe the speed at which they fly---and close to rocks!

While watching them, I said to myself,"How in the heck to they stop?" They sure don't "cruise to a smooth landing"..........until I watched the last video.----------Hey! I'm half Italian.---------Sixgun

"Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat". Theodore Roosevelt

Well now he wants to land WITHOUT a parachute. This should be interesting.

Nice words. You think "checkered by failure" includes smacking a bridge at 100mph?
