OT: The sickest freefall stunt ever, flying between buildings in downtown Rio
Something to take your mind off the BTT
Granted, in a wingsuit, you have some ability to steer, HOWEVER, flying between those towers before pulling the ripcord was effing insane. Hate to be a spoiler, but I could not figure out what the big deal was until they wanted to go Iron Man flying through downtown Rio.
Great, but I think there's too much going on right now, between Michigan basketball, hockey and football, for posts like this on the board.
LMAO best post ever

In 2113, the University of Michigan will have varsity athletes competing in wingsuit basejumping who will get degrees in a aerospace engineering in the bargain.
I can't post a link here, but google "Clem Sohn". A true daredevil whose death even made Time magazine.

This already happened in Transformers 3.

Holy crap.

Dang near crapped myself watching them go between the buildings. Impressive.

Is it considered "freefall" when you're in a wingsuit?
Totally crazy regardless. Sweet video.

I tried to use the old embed code in the OP as well as the new, and for some reason neither worked. In any event, it's pretty awesome...
