SkyDiving Record ... without using a parachute
So cool. man i wish they had these when i was young enough to
have the guts to do it.
I have skydived many times, so when i see the "wingsuites" on tv
i always drool a little bit.
but, i am now old enough to know i am not invincible, so it will never
happen

A stuntman is thought to have become the first person to jump out of a helicopter and land safely without deploying a parachute.
Gary Connery, 42, used a "wingsuit" to make his descent from 2,400ft (730m) above Oxfordshire.
The 42-year-old said he felt "elated" after landing on a pile of 18,600 cardboard boxes.
He was fitted with a parachute for the jump, which saw him accelerate to 80mph, but it was not deployed.
The entire flight took less than a minute to complete.

Life: Nature's way of keeping meat fresh
Getting old ain't for sissy's
As you are I was, as I am you will be
You can't fix stupid, but you can always out smart it.

As you are I was, as I am you will be
You can't fix stupid, but you can always out smart it.
Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
