I seem to be able to watch this over and over.... I can't get over the committment part of it. I've committed (and also bailed) to jumps and drops on a bike, some with higher pucker factors than others. There is NO bailing with the insanity in the vid. NUTS!
I am not here cause I am playing photographer and on my mountain bike.

Watched that awhile ago...it's indeed insane. Imagine a tear in the arm-flaps or, as also mentioned, a rogue gust of wind...Game Over! And that sweet carbon fiber helmet...what is it good for other than to keep your pumpkin intact after it becomes detached from the rest of your body parts? :?

Thanks for posting, sent it to a few friends. I've seen people jumping from cliffs with parachutes, but never this wing suit deal.

Agreed with what others said, the slow-mo footage of that pass at 1:18 really shows how close he was and the crazy speed he was doing. Shaking my head in amazement.
