15 Cool Pictures of Humans Flying in Wingsuits

I tell ya my idea of extreme is battling an above average sized cockroach in my apartment. Yeah I’ve gone parasailing before but come on. That’s nothing. And I guess if you’ve gone skydiving then that’s nothing too. Well it’s nothing compared to the thrill seekers that are into Wingsuit Flying.
In case you are wondering:
Wingsuit flying is the art of flying the human body through the air using a special jumpsuit, called a wingsuit, that shapes the human body into an airfoil which can create lift. The wingsuit creates the airfoil shape with fabric sewn between the legs and under the arms. It is usually incorrectly referenced by the public as a birdman suit or squirrel suit.
Pretty badass if you ask me. Just hope that your parachute opens as your acting like a bird.
