- milkshaker, on 01/04/2009, -7/+951***** never doubt batman
- HiImFromReddit, on 01/03/2009, -23/+895Holy *****, I guess batman really COULD fly with those wings that pop out...I always thought that was ***** but I guess not.
- arichard, on 01/03/2009, -13/+778"At the beginning of wingsuit base jumping, we were trying to get as far from the wall as possible, so basically clearing up the whole thing, and now it's getting boring so we play around."
I've always wanted to play around at terminal velocity. - AlphaDrake, on 01/04/2009, -16/+581It's falling... with style
- fmlive, on 01/03/2009, -13/+433Wow this was awesome. Best thing I've seen on digg today.
- marcus1060, on 01/04/2009, -10/+411I prefer to wait a little longer into 2009 to choose the one video I watch, thank you.
- hoodoodave, on 01/04/2009, -7/+390Man, I can't believe I already wasted my one video on this.
I was just gonna watch the dramatic chipmunk again this year. - Smoble, on 01/04/2009, -37/+333"That's not flying, that's falling with style." -Toy Story
- inactive, on 01/04/2009, -22/+275Be it this? WTF?
- evergreen22, on 01/04/2009, -6/+257That wasn't flying! That was... falling with style!
- inactive, on 01/04/2009, -2/+252What if I saw it in 2008? Can I choose a different one for 2009 be to it?
- stupidcatdog, on 01/04/2009, -4/+219Witchcraft!
- inactive, on 01/04/2009, -5/+204That is amazing, I'm buying a suit and jumping off my roof.
- Kornstalx, on 01/04/2009, -6/+189Did Yoda write this headline?
- StorytoShare, on 01/03/2009, -51/+226Simply Wow.
- hoowahman, on 01/04/2009, -6/+177This title was used on reddit as well. Bad copying techniques.
- g33b33, on 01/04/2009, -0/+169The walk to the top each time would kill me.
- NitrousFlare, on 01/04/2009, -36/+193Oldie but a goodie.
- inactive, on 01/04/2009, -29/+142Buried as a Duplicate story.
http://digg.com/extreme_sports/Wingsuit_Base_Jumpi ... - m3mn0n, on 01/04/2009, -2/+113today? in months for me.
I miss all the good submissions lke this and end up seeing all the comics, kittens, and general crap. - rybo1187, on 01/04/2009, -3/+107Just watching this got my adrenaline going...I could not imagine the feeling of being that close to a cliff wall at terminal velocity...Or any other velocity for that matter.
- wickensworth, on 01/04/2009, -1/+103I got impatient and now I have to wait until 2010 to see another video
- Devroush, on 01/04/2009, -6/+102non-direct link: http://vimeo.com/1778399
- Gnar04, on 01/04/2009, -2/+98thats why moms arent invited. anywhere.
- wild, on 01/04/2009, -2/+97Except to my house...
- Hraes, on 01/04/2009, -6/+91No.
- UltimateCrouton, on 01/04/2009, -4/+87I'm pretty sure you'll be alone on this one, being the only person to have actually seen the Tomb Raider movies.
- noarcher, on 01/04/2009, -1/+78give me five minutes, I'll be there with my camera!
- MOJIRA, on 01/04/2009, -2/+78What say you?
- jasdf, on 01/04/2009, -2/+77(10000'-1500' parachute open altitude)/5280' = 1.7 miles
1.7mi/60mph = .028 hours
.028hours = 1:42 min:sec
100mph forward velocity * .028 hours = 2.8 miles horizontal from jump point
2.8mi/1.7mi = 1.65:1 glide ratio
Reality puts the glide ratio closer to 2:1, but the 60mph and 100mph velocities are estimates. - kss42, on 01/04/2009, -0/+65Yeah, but if you watch to the end, they had to deploy parachutes to land safely. Batman just FWOOM crashes right through the window.
- HyperJack, on 01/04/2009, -2/+65How about zero velocity?
- trixyfox, on 01/04/2009, -0/+62To infinity and beyond!
- dzneill, on 01/04/2009, -3/+64Bad title, awesome video.
- inactive, on 01/04/2009, -4/+65How can I go from here (having never even skydived before) to there? Skydiving doesn't seem all that interesting to me. But this. OMG this is exactly what I'd love to be able to do.
Alas. - mrfreeziexp, on 01/04/2009, -14/+74this was ripped directly from reddit, headline and all. buried for laziness.
- rickyisawesome, on 01/03/2009, -29/+89yeah, that was awesome. for a second i was thinking, what if they could put rollerblades on and land, but then i saw how insanely fast he buzzed by that road and no, no way they could do it without a parachute, what was i thinking.
- Ladymongoose, on 01/04/2009, -5/+64Speaking from a strictly human point of view, that's totally amazing..speaking from a mother's point of view, I don't think I could watch my son do this without having a heart attack.
- chrisduser, on 01/04/2009, -1/+59Dugg up because of this:

They could probably land on a flat runway, but I'm pretty sure it would be extremely dangerous. Someone should try it. - inactive, on 01/04/2009, -0/+57Seems to me it'd be smart to learn how to skydive before even attempting this... Kinda like learning how to walk before you can fly?
- RemarkableRyan, on 01/04/2009, -1/+55Best thing all year, so far...
- whazdown, on 01/04/2009, -3/+55...why would that be entertaining?
- dawnraid101, on 01/04/2009, -0/+51We are but men, ROCK!!!!
- Betrayal, on 01/04/2009, -3/+52Angelina did everything already plus gave birth to over 100 children and adopted another 100.
- bkkenny, on 01/04/2009, -2/+51So basically you're looking forward to watching somebody die...
- iNiz, on 01/04/2009, -3/+51Toy Story?
- MOJIRA, on 01/04/2009, -4/+51Glide, not fly.
I always imagined Batman climbing a 100 flights of stairs to get to the top of the building, then saying "all this for a few seconds of badassedness.... totally worth it". - memper, on 01/04/2009, -1/+43They were one of the first to offer personalized presentation pages with 720 HD multipass encoding on the flv format. Plus, Youtube is simply an ugly mess even with its new HD option. People concerned with the presentation quality of their content turn to Vimeo.
- w3ber, on 01/04/2009, -0/+40bring a high frame rate camera and a shovel.
