VIDEO: Record-breaking wing-suit jumper?

Postby Liam548 » Mon Jun 25, 2012 6:45 pm

On the recent fler email it had a link to this video but the link does not work.

Anyone know the correct URL?

"A Columbian-born stuntman broke four world records in ten minutes when he jumped from 37,000ft and travelled more than 16 miles using a wing suit. The jump took the record for the longest flight in a wing suit (9 minutes 6 seconds), greatest horizontal distance covered (16.135 miles), the highest ever jump (37,000ft) and greatest absolute distance flown (17,520 miles). He rounded off the jump, having descended 33,000ft, pulling his parachute at just 4,000ft above the ground. Watch a video of his flight here"

Thanks
