Wingsuit Base Jumping
I want to do this, but I feel I would first have to set all of my affairs in order...

Hmm... no landings... Maybe it's a one-drop deal.
Do you notice in the last seconds of the video how close they are to the ground when they finally pull their parachutes' rip cords? I hope they do not need to go to their back-up chutes?
OMG..it's amazing; I didn't know any such thing existed.
I don't have the guts to do this..but it holds much more of an attraction for me than sky-diving because it has got to feel like you are really flying.
As a child I had dozens of dreams that I could fly and envisioned it just like that (but without the suit). Arms out, body in total control, soaring just over the ground or climbing above treetops.
But...the landings..oh no way.
Thanks for the video.
P.S. When you get your affairs in order, I would like two of your dogs please (with collars).
