    I'll never be able to fathom how a human can have the guts to jump of a cliff like that. Simply amazing!

      Start with just a simple tandem skydive, with an instructor. Then, after the most amazing experience of your life doing that, then you'll have a partial understanding of why wingsuiters do what they do. I'm not a wingsuiter, but I am a skydiver. Nothing on the ground comes even close to the thrill of free-falling.

      From Wikipedia: "An early attempt at wingsuit flying was made on 4 February 1912 by a 33-year-old tailor, Franz Reichelt, who jumped from the Eiffel Tower to test his invention of a combination of parachute and wing, which was similar to modern wingsuits. He misled the guards by saying that the experiment was going to be conducted with a dummy. He hesitated quite a long time before he jumped, and died when he hit the ground head first, opening a measurable hole in the frozen ground"

С тех пор, как нашел в интернете своих единомышленников летающих как птицы, смотрю и восторгаюсь постоянно, и даже сподобился самостоятельно полетать на параплане. Этот парень удивил меня особенно - обратите внимание, он на большой скорости около 250 км/час пролетел над самой землей и взмыл почти вертикально ввысь на 180м. Такое вижу впервые.

    I’ve watched hundreds of these videos. But I still get hesitant when jumping off a high dive board. I can’t even imagine walking that close to a cliff edge.

    • @le_th_

      Psychopaths are incapable of feeling the fear that you and I feel when our brain knows out life is in danger. Even if a lion pounces at a psychopath, they can't feel fear. Instead, when a psychopath's life is in danger or directly threatened (like falling off a massive cliff on accident), they feel exhilarated. Same is true if someone points a gun at their head, although they do know it's know it's not a good thing, they can't feel the feeling you and I know as fear (or anxiety). They are calm in the most dangerous situations.
