This link is only good for 50 views and then it will expire.

This is without a doubt THE most amazing wingsuit footage I have ever seen. At times these guys are buzzing over mountain ridgelines in freefall with only a few feet to spare. I've never seen any other sport compare to this in terms of huge freaking balls of steel.....

I'm amazed that skydiving vid's are considered so leet, you have to register to see them instead of hitting up YouTube. Quality.

Good to be back.

Norway.

The group calls themselves VKB. They put out a DVD called Superterminal in 2005 which was a huge success among the base jumping/skydiving community. Since then they have been perfecting a high glide ratio wing suit, which in it's current incarnation is producing glide ratios previously thought to be impossible.

This footage will be included on an upcoming DVD release called Flytastic. Definitely will be picking that one up...

Edit: Here is another clip of VKB in action:

Been skydiving once(tandem), and it was a rush. I can't imagine how awesome it must feel to do what they are doing in these videos.

Hasn't this been posted 2 times before? Yes it has. And the other 2 times it was on youtube and the actual site from the guy who did the jump. The person in question has also done over 1000 live jumps and has flown Mirage III's was a FO on a 747 and an airbus captain.
