This week’s “flyby” is a follow-up to an earlier post featuring Loïc Jean-Albert, this one perhaps more extreme than the first. I won’t go into what base jumping and wingsuits are all about; they’re explained in the earlier post. I will reiterate, however, that this isn’t “flying” in the true sense of the word. It’s more “controlled free falling.”

Albert’s answer to a question early in this clip explains what drives base jumping wingsuit flyers: “We get a little bored…” They’re adrenaline junkies, always needing to push the envelope for an ever greater rush.

Enjoy the ride!
