Any try this?

That is seriously intense.
That's an extreme sport. One mistake and you are dead.
There is currently and international "race" to see who will be the first to land without a parachute, just the wing suit.

I have to think the first guy that tries it is going to die.
I hope I am wrong, but I can't see it working out.

But I think it was done/tried this past week, saw it on the news at the gym.

Try to find the article, if you don't mind. I will too.
The trick is going to be to land on the right slope, with the right surface, imo.

I guess it's been around awhile from planes, but these guys doing it in canyons are just insane.

They go from approx 120-130mph to 30-40 at low end very low end .so landing, well hope all goes well.

If they can just glide and slide, it will work.
Guys fall from motorbikes going well over a 100 while racing, and just glide it out. Getting that angle correct at the moment of impact is going to be the whole gig. Huge risk factor, obviously.

Pat did not make it!

They should have the arm wings go back to their feet.

This is the guy who is going to try it 1st.
