Wing Suit Flying in Norway: Video of the Week

OK, so this has absolutely nothing to do with real estate.

But it’s wicked cool.

I’ll freely admit that certain parts of my anatomy are not large enough to do what these guys do.

For those not aware, “terminal velocity” is the constant maximum velocity reached by a body falling through the atmosphere under the attraction of gravity. For a skydiver, that’s about 124 MPH (200 KPH).

These guys are nuts.

Wow, that is crazy. It looks like fun, but I couldn't bring myself to do something like that. With as close as they are flying to the cliff, it would only take the wind blowing in the wrong direction or a small branch to wreak havoc.

Aaron@Learn Spanish Arizona

This video has been making the rounds for about 6 months now. No matter how many times it has been reposted I can't help but watch it 3 or 4 times. Amazing!

I logged close to 60 minutes of freefall time doing almost 60 skydiving days when in college. If this wing had been around back then, I would have been all over it. Now? I'm a bit too mortal!

Dave Dugdale

Wow, that is just amazing! One little gust while buzzing the walls and it would be over.

I love Vimeo, I can waste 20 minutes a time on the HD channel.

I live in Glendale. When my relatives come to visit they don't want to leave. Yes, we have hot summers, but we don't have snow in the winter which is real nice. I hate the bad drivers out here. Other than that its an awesome place to live. phoenix area attractions
