Wingsuits Off Everest
This has to be one of those must watch events. CNN reports a guy plans to jump of the top of Mt. Everest in a wing suit. If you haven't seen those wing suits, they basically turn a person into a super fast glider. I don't see how he can make it, but I'll be watching.
We watched a show on TV a while back about wing suits. Guys would jump from high cliffs and go flying down to lower elevations really fast- about 150mph. Awesome footage from their helmet cams. I don't have the guts to do it but it must be quite a thrill for those that do.
One of the guys featured on the show ended up getting killed later on. Ran into a tree or something. They didn't show that one.

If the good Lord had intended for us to fly he would have given us wings. Just ask Icarus!
But...but...those guys have wings!
A "Wing Suit" does not a bird make!
Ernie's right. Zeus says no to manned flight. All airlines should be shut down immediately.
