Coolest extreme sport ever. I'd love to do this at some point in my life.

Yeah, they are pretty amazing.

Of course, you have to have a little bit of a death wish..

looks like so much fun. Gorgeous mountains as well. I wonder exactly how you prepare for it, other than skydiving.

I'm an avid parachutist and I can't believe how amazingly talented (and crazy brave!) those wing-suit flyers are! The skill necessary to fly like that is unbelievable!
Great video!

That's actually on my bucket list.. and I will probably be doing that sooner rather than later... I have been para sailing .. and love it. I also want to fly in a P-51 once before I go.
