Jeb Corliss wing-suit demo 

after watching this stimulating video often (along with wife) many years ago when wing-suit vids were a rarity, we returned to a (new) wing-suit video today (2021) and the wing-suit visuals triggered the wife to auto-magically start humming/singing this tune in response to the visual. Her impulsive/sub-conscious response after YEARS is perhaps the most sincere affirmation of the audio-visual impact this classic video makes.

well i'm not sure hellen keller had wingsuit in mind when she wrote that lol !

Ten years on, and I just recently bought the Invaders Must Die album because just the other day, I was feeling nostalgic, remembered this video, and looked up the album. Funny how things like this will stick with you. :)

have watched this a dozen times, and it still blows me away.. sick music selection.

Jeb, you are obviously VERY capable and fearless as all 'get out'. The part where you scream between the trees is off the charts impressive. Continue with my blessing, you are incredible sir.

This is hands down the coolest thing I've ever seen.

No matter what this video always makes me smile. Muchos Huevos Jeb!

Hands down- the coolest thing i have ever seen.

Way to go Jeb! That video is unreal. I'd so love to try that.

I hope your recovering fast mate, Hope to see you get in your suit and make more kickass vids.

man Jeb you're a phenomena!! Bless you, please dont get killed!

@jebcorliss thanx for the inspiration jeb... i myself have skydived tandem a few times, once out of a chopper in lauttenbrunen. I look forward to my AFF and proximity flying someday.. KEEP EVOLVING ;)

This is great. keep it up Jeb.

insane vid and nice choice of music

awesome just awesome Jeb you are the man !!!!

This is INSANE! I've watched wingsuit videos before but you fly in between trees and around statues and stuff. DAMN!

I never get sick of watching this.

I really found it funny was how the video seemed to portray Jeb wearing his shades so casually. As though it were a regular everyday thing, literally flying through the air ha nice work

This is by farrr the most coooolest and extreme video i've ever seen, rispect for the superman!

Absolutly amazing! Congrats to you. If you get to go there again, shoot in 1080p so we can sorta see how awesome it is to see what you see!

Badass! Intense rush I'm sure! Props man!

Wow. I will seriously consider making this into a full time hobby. Life is too short to miss out on something that looks as amazing as this.

The vapor trail is just insane! Your a jet fighter, on the edge of insanity!

Absolutely amazing!

Jeb your my hero dude. Respect

Treba imati muda za ovo.Svaka čast!

o...m....g! this is insane! my new favorite clip on youtube

I just wanted you to know that, for some reason, I'm crying after watching that. I think, deep down, every human wants to fly, and this video touched that part of me.

This looks like the most awesome thing ever

Jeb you are my hero!!!!!

That was absolutely incredible, well done Jeb your a master at the wing suit, what advise would you give to someone just starting to get into the skydiving industry like myself?

Thank you Jeb! I knew someone could fly there from that other guys video that went to the left of there. That is AWESOME flyin'! I wanna do that some day as well! Take care & post more when you can. Man! I wanna do that. It's kinda like the risks I took in my motocross racing days. Times ten! I gotta learn to jump out of a perfectly good working airplane 200 times so I can get certified for a wingsuit.

pretty insane, good shit man

This sure beats my dreams as a child of flying across my front lawn :) +Gods Blessings Jeb+ You will always be in our prayers.

jest po prostu niesamowity!!

@mik3 i agree, the most amazing video i have ever seen . Mike.

This dude is my oficial hero from now on!! I'm gonna do this when I pass my skydiving exam!!

You insane person! How I love the things you do! :)

Simply just wow. Be safe.

I love that flying!!! It has been my dreams in my sleep since 1965. I gotta do that!! For some reason, I don't think that's too far pushing it. Must be from my motocross days in the late 70's thru the end of the 80's.I went ALL OUT to the turns, then all out to the next turn! Gotta start with jumpin' out of a good workin' plane. 200? times? oooooffffaaaaa Hope to get thru the up chuck-ness.

If you watch the video above, you can see that Jeb carefully plans his routes to be the straightest routes possible. He's striving for the largest glide ratio, and keeps as straight of a glide as possible. The only place that he truly banks is right after 'Grinding the Crack', but he had built up immense speed as was able to turn without issue. You do notice, however, that he comes out of the bank relatively slower than when he came in. Take a look at it.

MAN!!! YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!

I agree!!!! I must do this before I die, I don't know who you are but what you did is truely amazing! How do you begin to train for something like this? Video was incredible as well, what you did was so amazing it needs to be recognized. Well done!

This....is the most awesome thing ever!

I am just so fooooking proud of a humankind right now!!!

this video is a symbol of epicness

This would be so awesome to try!

Oi Jeb parabéns pela sua coragem e dedicação ver um video deste e não se emocionar é só pra quem nunca pensou em voar, fico feliz de ver que algo assim é possivel e que existe pessoas especiais no mundo a fora como você abraço obrigado por isso; Moacyr São Paulo Brasil.

This looks so amazing... i want to do this...

That man... Is out of his frickin mind. And I love him.

how are you not a legend ?

If this is just a demo I can't wait for the full game

Damn good song, damn cool flight. That is so amazing.

Your so close. I grew up & still live in Santa Monica. Maybe some day I'll meet you. Take care & carry on.

Holy shit i cant imagine that type of sensation. Amazing. Makes you wonder why you aren't doing something spectacular with your life. The world is a beautiful place.

Stall delay can occur on airfoils subject to a high angle of attack and a three-dimensional flow. When the angle of attack on an airfoil is increasing rapidly, the flow will remain substantially attached to the airfoil to a significantly higher angle of attack than can be achieved in steady-state conditions. As a result, the stall is delayed momentarily and a lift coefficient significantly higher than the steady-state maximum is achieved.

jeph they still land with a traditional parachute, with these "Squirrel" suits you have to be moving forward at a fairly high rate of speed to be able to maintain any kind of lift, therefore its impossible to slow down enough to touch down gently. usually they will pull up to slow down and gain a little altitude then pull their chute. amazing, i'd love to try this myself

Jeb Corliss is nuts. What a badass

I bet I am your number 1 fan Jeb

I can just about fathom how this is possible, if your descending at 30mph as opposed to 120 without a suit....but your horizontal speeds must be massive!. This is 3D F1 driving with no brakes and a lot of beautiful traffic! craziest video I have seen.

Che invidia!!!! Sei un grande!!!!!

The angle of attack isn't the only thing that can cause a stall on an airfoil. You can stall with the airfoil flat. When he tilts his wings, and in the case of a wing-suit, his entire body, the lift is redirected from pushing against gravity to pushing his body in a different direction, forcing him to turn. But because the lifting force is being shifted from vertical to horizontal, he loses lift, causing a textbook scenario of a stall. In General Aviation this is called a 'wingtip stall.'

That's awesome bro.

I NEED ONE OF THESE NOW.

Hard to believe that was already 11 years ago.

I NEVER COMMENT - but this is just WOAW!!! especially flying underneath the jesus of Rio d Jeneiro!! SO SO SO COOL!

This Music is awesome. After watching his documentary he's a big inspiration. he turned depression into base jumping (not drugs). After his accident Jeb said "he takes NO pain medicine". He's not only a smart intelligent human being but he's very very good at what he does; that's why he's still alive. He's the michael jordan of Extreme sports.

How can some dislike this? .... Anyway, I guess this proves it again: Impossible to please everybody. And luckily don´t have to. Beautiful video!

Incredible!

simply amazing

this guy is awesome, big respect, I wish to try it once..:)

@dsmdeegenThe average forward speed of a wingsuit is around 160 km/h (100 mph). But the direction flown with regards to the wind has a big influence in the resulting ground speed. If there are 100 km/h upper winds, flying into the wind, the wingsuit will only fly at a ground speed of (160-100) 60 km/h. If the wind is in the back during flight, the wind speed actually ads to the speed of the wingsuit.

That must feel amazing to fly like that!!

@jebcorliss unbelievably accurate response!

This has to be the ultimate feeling in the world!

every day i wathin this video SOOO SICK love it !!!!!!

this is the most awesome thing one can do.

That is just plan SICK! Defiantly makes me want to start jumping!

HOW COULD ANY1 DISLIKE THIS?!!!!!!!!! MAN AM SPEECHLESS

thanks for uploading the videos. simply awesome. take care¡

Parabens Dude, you're the best.

How could someone dislike this?

The best part about the video is how he makes it look easy

@dsmdeegenWhich means the wingsuit can actually end up flying at (160+100) 260 km/h relative to the ground, just because of the push the wind is giving. This is similar to a boat in a river, going slower upstream and faster downstream.

19 anos depois, eu finalmente achei esse vídeo. 🎉🎉

@BenMoreland94 Thanks dude! I was wondering what that was all about, but that makes perfect sense.

awesome vid

amazing guy, not everyone has the courage as he has extra views during such flight

Отличное видео!

never realized the tech was this good...you seem to have excellent control. your design?

Definitely on mah bucket list >.>

He is a madman!

DAMN!!!! Great vids. My question is how could I get into this extreme-ass sport.

Who is this Jeb character? Kidding Sick!

Amazing!

@SchlittschuhclubBern And the village at the base is called Zermatt. sickest place ive ever been! Headin there again on this month.

Incredible.

Hey Jeb ! I remember you on TV saying 'the question isn't if you are going to die, but when'...I hope you're OK, and think of what you said...Cheers.. we need people like you, but ALIVE.

respect man !

I would give any amount of money to try this. He's basically FLYING! Not even falling, FLYING! DANG! Good lord, I can't imagine how amazing the feeling must be...
