Amazing. I did a few daredevil things as a young guy, but some of the stunts being performed by thrillseekers and daredevils today are on the edge of unbelievable. There is a Swiss fellow who has a jet powered set of batwings who makes some fantastic flights. And the skydivers with winged jumpsuits who soar like flying squirrels. Luckily, using modern video equipment, these feats are well recorded and the rest of us can witness and even ride along with these high performing super doers.

Tom, thank you for sharing all those things.
I saw a show on TV a few weeks ago I think it was about daredevil stunts and some of the things they did were so scary and amazing at the same time.
