I think slow mo would help, not the greatest shots or editing- hopefully they do it several more times - maybe get better cameras or camera operators? Still kinda neat. I am waiting to be able to get hoverboards - m.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ul9l6xfEofs.html
I did something similar; I based off of mt Everest barefoot and landed smoothly on the lake below and set a new record for longest barefoot skiing without a boat ⛵️
Hilarious! Just hilarious! It cracks me up when he is getting near to "LANDING" and a mission control type voice comes on and says, "Thirty seconds before landing. Team on standby please", because, you know, the great big team involved in such an event would need to be reminded that he is about to land. It just adds so much authenticity to this wonderful comedy short film. Good work guys.
"So the landing is the most important part. Should we hire a few film crews to get some HD video of the landing at the lake"? "Nah, we'll just have Crazy Frank try and record it with his flip phone."
@@pelvismen5510 i hope you realize this was during a time redbull and other stunt youtubers were literlly putting out cinematic mastepieces. This pales in comparison to those videos
Me and the wife were in Limone last week on holiday... One of the most stunning, jaw dropping, beautiful places we have ever had the pleasure of visiting. Subscribed.
I'm an old man & I wear a Speedo... & I'm NOT in Italy ! I'm in my front yard, standing in my sprinkler zone & drinking tall glass of ( TANG ) while randomly yelling at passing dog walkers 😳
@@HAPPYPUMPKN nice I was wanting to be a surgeon myself but back in middle school I wrecked my dirt bike and caused some nerve damage I'm lucky to go 5min without flinging my phone across the room.
Just saw this, can't believe some people believed this. Water is the one thing you NEVER want to land on if you are having an issue with a parachute, for example. Water does not compress. Hitting it is worse than hitting concrete. Not a good idea at terminal velocity.
Maybe not, its possible anyways, look up a phenomena called ground effect, planes use it for a soft landing and ekranoplans used it to travel really fast a few feet above water
@@juricacakaric5535 You need a considerable amount of speed to be creating lift even more so with such tiny wings. Ground effect won't help you at all. There's no way anybody would survive such a stunt.
@@springbokkie_center9399 when he is in the water, right after landing, there is nothing protruding like a stick or string on his helmet, just his camera. Thus, in the shot just before, he was on a string and its edited in.
@@iamron993 that was his back cam. In the shot you are talking about he has his head tilted up, which means the “stick” is pointing down into the water, hence not visible. Do I believe this is real? Probably not, but what everyone is calling a cable is simply a camera mount...
I did this, but landed on the back of a motorcycle. Granted the motorcycle was running along at 15kph, and the rider was a bit shaken up, a guy name Carlos, who was totally unawares of my plans. He filed charges and I did 30 in lockup and 2 months of community service.
Vesna Vulović (Serbian Cyrillic: Весна Вуловић, pronounced [ʋêsna ʋûːloʋitɕ]; 3 January 1950 - 23 December 2016) was a Serbian flight attendant who holds the Guinness world record for surviving the highest fall without a parachute: 10,160 m (33,330 ft; 6.31 mi).
He was kissing the water with his belly. Also, it looked as if he managed to slow down a bit before touch down. It was pretty cool. I might be dead wrong and he played me lol
High divers can dive 174 feet- how high and fast before terminal velocity? Is it slowed by spread eagle pose? How fast do the wingsuit drivers fall? *Gary Connery landed on boxes.
Just imagine the amount of work that went in to this! Maybe for your next video, you can land a wingsuit on the down slope of a sand dune. I've used Photoshop myself but I am not nearly as skilled as you people.
I had some very hurting jet ski comedowns at around 70 km/h. I guess this would have braked the neck immediatly, being more than 10 times more energetic
The guy with boxes had brain, this one does not. Not because of making it look like he did it, but rather because he is inspiring other idiots to try. I guess a good portion of wingsuiters gets killed exactly because of attempting crap like this for real.
@@getsideways7257 You make a great point there. It's so easy to picture being able to do it, a fake like this might be just enough to convince people to try. The guy with the boxes is more like the intelligent acid tripper, who determines that the idea he can fly might better be tested by standing on the ground and flapping his arms than by jumping off a building.
@@drytool Given it more thought, I retract my statement of him having any brain. But either way, I was speaking relatively. Turned out he got quite a few broken bones after the "landing"... Which is no wonder, considering that the vertically-oriented sides of the boxes would have had more problem with someone forcing his way right through them at speed than the sides supported by them.
Even if it isn't real, it certainly could be. You can easily slow to 20-30 mph, and at that angle with water, you'd almost certainly do exactly what he did in this video. There are numerous videos of "landing" without a parachute.
@@DanniDuck its risky as Hell... You Can break bones and get seriously injured... Just imagine dropping to a water at 70km/h, the water is like a concrete and you need to brake it somehow, for sure not with a slide... I would like to see that video.
What if you got into a pencil type entry higher up? Could it be done then? Obviously you would have to have enough depth and be going slow enough but does it seem possible?
Next feat : wingsuite landing on a snowy ski slope in Chamonix without reserve chute !..... ;-) Should be much easier, because the slope would be at the same angle as the wingsuit glide angle ! Go for it , guy !
The most important moment of the film is cut. Specially made flashing of images so that you can't see what it really was like. The flashing of images is no accident. This movie is a fairy tale for children.
I had friend who did that but unfortunately made an error in the approach angle, and the air pressure made him skim off into the upper atmosphere and out of Earth's orbit. He was never seen again.
I fell off of the Empire State Building. Luckily, I remembered to flap my arms really fast before hitting the pavement to slow me down. Great job on your landing.
If that is possible, one would have to know what one is doing. I wonder, if one is a few metres above the water, a flare manouevre creating drag, would slow one down considerably before hitting the water? But it could be risky, as is the whole sport.
