I was watching lots of wingsuit stuff like this with the skydivers one night.

The conversation went like this...
"wow"
"Yep, he's dead now"
"him too"
"Oh yeah, that guy too"
"check out this next one... crazy!... oh yeah, he's dead too"

Something to think about too... what do the skydivers think of us?... "dude, you're nuts!" (skydivers, not necessarily base jumpers)

All relative I guess ;)

30/40 years ago weren't the statistics similar for hang gliding?

Fair enough.
Call me in 30-40 years and we'll go base jumping :)

I saw the video on a big HD screen at Best Buy. Pretty cool. Does anyone have any idea what kind of LD they get?
