Wingbase jumping and proximity flying - balls of steel
Recently, my flatmate pal, who also studies medicine, and I were looking through some youtube videos and stumbled upon a few posts related to base jumping and proximity flying. We literally had one of those “jaw drop” moments just by watching the two videos below (Please watch them in order). Apparently to do proper proximity flying you have to at least overcome your fear of falling, then master flying with the flight suit as if it is second nature, and fly through those canyons approximately 50-100 times, knowing the terrain before you can proximity fly. This is definitely something I want to do maybe out of a plane before I die, because the risk of fatal accidents of proximity flying is 1 in 60 apparently.
