Wednesday, May 30, 2012 3:37:58 PM With such a small wingsuit, yeah, you need boxes to crash into. To do this properly, your suit would need to incorporate framework to support actual wings, so that you'd have some lift to glide you to a proper landing. |

Tuesday, May 29, 2012 2:40:12 PM lame. I could do that with no wingsuit and an even bigger pile of boxes. Does this mean I could be the first man to jump from thousands of feet with no parachute and land with no injuries? |

Tuesday, May 29, 2012 1:22:34 PM So he's slows right down and lands on thousands of soft boxes? Of course he landed safely. Call me when he lands properly and walks off. |
