Here is a 3D video which you can pan around after the guy jumps into a fjord in Norway wearing a wingsuit. Simply awesome.

I want a wing suit. Or a jet pack. A flying car would be nice, but not if everyone has them- that just sounds like a recipe for disaster

Wow, I think cutting through the tree tops that close would freak me out. It's pretty amazing that something like that gets developed. What would our flight pioneers think about this I wonder?

i went to that area 1 1/2 years ago, is absolutely amazing, stunningly beautifull scenery all around you

And there´s a couple videos of the "sport" out there that are just insane. Now, if anyone i know ever wants to do it i´ll punch him in the head hoping he comes to his senses, but it´s still awesome to look at

The whole thing would freak me out, they are going just a couple feet above the rock as well and all that at over 150 Mph.

It's one of those things that I would love to say that I tried one time.... but I see no way in hell that I would actually get myself to try it.

Basically having the memory of doing it without having to go through the fear of actually trying it would be nice; however that can be arranged.

Hmm, they say that every time you remember something you actually change the memory a little. Maybe if I try to remember watching that video enough my memory will change to that actually being me doing it....
