corvairkr Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 G'day All , For those interested the channel 7 Sunday program is doing a story this week on Jeb Corliss , the wing suit wearing lunatic who rolled himself up in a ball earlier this year . http://au.news.yahoo.com/sunday-night/video/watch/28692188 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piet Fil Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Might have to watch that (if I'm not building wing ribs). Love his "Grindin the Crack" Youtube clip (mainly due to the soundtrack .. Sail is a great song). Should be an interesting show (worse comes to worse I'll program the Tbox to record it. Thanks for the heads up.

Guest Maj Millard Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Yes me too, but I sooo don't want to impact solid rocks at 150 mph + not character-building at all.....!!!!!!! Must say though that I was impressed with his 'threading the needle...that took some gonads !...........generally though I feel that the lad just simply has had way too much Red Bull !!...........................................................................................Maj...

Yep absolutely i couldnt agree more , in 50 years time when we are strapping on our wing suits to go to the shops we will be talking about these legends jeb corbliss and yvess rossi who pioneered them .
