French wingsuit flyers recently completed an unbelievable stunt following a B.A.S.E. jump from the top of the Jungfrau mountain in Switzerland. Fred Fugen and Vince Reffet, known as the Soul Flyers, caught up with and flew into a plane in mid-air.
As part of their project A Door in the Sky, which they had spent several months training for by completing more than 100 test flights in Empuriabrava in Spain, the duo B.A.S.E jumped from the top of the Jungfrau, one of Europe’s highest mountains, and flew into a Pilatus Porter light aircraft in mid-air. Now that's a different way to catch a flight.

But those guys have a hard time finding underwear to fit. Balls too big.

The DOD has got to be thinking about wingsuits.

The DOD has got to be thinking about wingsuits. Probably top secret but I would guess they invented them.

Some people will do anything to get around the TSA security line.

I’m really glad that some of this stuff didn’t exist when I was young and suffering from testosterone poisoning. Building homemade parasails out of Army surplus parachutes and stolen playground swing seats was bad enough.
