How does the quote go......."It is better to live one day as a lion than a hundred years as a sheep"..... or something along those
lines
Good on him for trying and pushing the envelope.

There was a guy that leapt from one plane while a parachute was attached to a small drone he had to join with it, attach to the. Harness and pull
before hitting the ground.
Not content with achieving this foolish stunt with a chute on, he then did it with no chute
Succeeded Well done!!
Then tried again WHY???
And failed

I hope the flying squirel doesn't try it again

I saw the vid of the skydiver who leapt out after his 'chute. Balls of steel i thought, seems more daring than this latest stunt. I believe this
chap in the wing suit had an emergency parachute just in case.
Beware! Bourettes is binfectious.

Yes, but if you're suicidal, I think heroin or something is a more sane way to go. I honestly don't feel that getting medals for living on
the edge is worth it when you are dead. Everyone else goes "good on him", but his mum probably doesn't.
I saw a few of these types in downhill/extreme mountain biking who ended up in wheelchairs or pain the rest of their miserable lives, all for some
video that people forget after a week. Maybe someone should ask them what they think.
