ChrisG 0 #1 January 25, 2006 I just read the story. All I can say is: WOW!!! THAT GUY HAS SOME BALLS!!!! It only takes a few seconds to think of things that could go wrong with that! Congratulations to Visa Parviainen and team, your name may go down in history! That's an awesome achivement!! This is the most incredible wingsuit advancement ever!! I hope it can be made safe for general use. Think how cool that would be to soar through the air- UNDER YOUR OWN POWER!! Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piisfish 140 #3 January 25, 2006 Visa is Jet-Birdman... Jet-Man is Yves Rossy www.jet-man.com and flew horizontally a year and a half before the reported date of Visa. It was not with a wigsuit though. Both projects are great. Kudos to all involved in both projects (and in other projects if they exist)scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
