I agree, although I think a little crazy too. I think I saw something like this except he started on skis and went off a cliff then flew down.

About 20 years ago I went to Switzerland. I was blown away by the fact not only could one buy a ONE-way ticket to the top of the various mountains, that so many people were doing it. They would ski, hang-glide, or even walk down from the Matterhorn. At the top of the mountain they would all be assembling their gliders for the trip down, and on a breezy day (I guess they are ALL breezy days at that altitude) finding a flat space to set out the wings and people to hold them down must have been a challenge unto itself.
And people think riding bikes in traffic is crazy...

How would you have liked to be the first one to do this to "see how the wingsuit works..."
