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

Re: Jet Man
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

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?

Re: Jet Man
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

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?
