Amazin, Is that truly the sound we hear when they pass by?? Its almost like a low pass by the fighter jets!! incredible... these guys make the internet lively and adventurous 👍👍
Even a jet airliner at cruise or descending will make a sound like that due to the slipstream. A skydiver without a wing suit falling past you (with me under parachute and a jumper falling past me) makes that same sound.
It wasn't until watching this that I realized the airfoil is responsible for making that sound. All these years of seeing jets flying by and being at airshows, I always thought that the engine was the primary source of that sound.
you go foward 3 meters for every meter you fall. thats very experienced wing suit flying though. a beguinner should expect 2:1 or worse. it also depends on the suit in question too. these big suits give more lift than some of the other ones with smaller wings. so it depends of the suit size and experience level. but if you have these big suits and experience you should have a 3:1 ratio as stated above. but its not always that clear cut depending on conditions. a big wind gust or unfavourable conditions can change things even for the most experienced which is why even some of the technically best wingsuit flyers can die. say you drop one extra meter based of a dead spot in the air. you can just drop out of the sky. this can happen if you fly right over another wing suit pilot for instance because they are creating a mini vacuum in the air directly above them to create lift in the suit. theres some video that show this. but also some natural conditions can create similar results to that. I personally have 200 jumps in base wing suits. nothing this technical and easier safer jumps. and I stopped because its very dangerous. a person I was doing it with died and I have never been able to get over it. these bigger wingsuit jumpers see many people die along the way and keep going. I have a lot of respect for it but I can no longer have that kind of risk with kids a wife ect and people that need me to be alive.
Just think what It could be with an air attachment. Maybe a personal sound so everyone knows who went by. Maybe the ability to opt several musical notes on the fly. Who knows what a "WING-SUIT-SYMPHONY" may sound like? I know a lot of these guys-n-gals are Musicians as well. How about it Wing-Suiters "THE WORLD IS LISTENING".
Caveat: I am a nobody. I haven't skydived, let alone base jumping a wingsuit and skimming obstacles. However as a casual observer of aerodynamics since my preverbal days, (I loved watching the snow swirling behind other vehicles on the highways of the far north) i have observed something in this and other videos which has given me some uneasiness. Some of these folks are flying too slowly. They're too close to their max glide ratio descent rate. Here's an article i found which explains the risk they're taking. The folks with their head down, diving fast, have more room to correct, and if i read the article properly, the suit wants to correct back up if they're using strength to maintain a lower angle of attack and faster dive speed as they approach the obstacle below them: squirrel.ws/learn/speed-to-fly EDIT: so i realise i didn't answer the question. That's a yes - provided the pilot is not gliding down at a relaxing mosey, close to his stall point. In lots of videos i see people with big dihedral, like a vulture with their arms (and legs too) curving back away from their body in a scoop shape. This looked wrong to me, and the article i've linked is one of a few on that site discussing this issue. Slow and stable may seem like safety to an earthling... but it is a disaster waiting to happen if we apply that to gliding near obstacles. Stability in aerodynamics is not friendly to maneuvering, and speed, as you implied in your question, gives the possibility of correcting upwards of a given trajectory, or even up in absolute terms.

Just a man and some fabric! It's fucking insane, you wouldn't even believe it would be possible 40-50 years ago! I love it!
And some good techniques..
wow they are much louder than i thought. it almost sounds like an engine
A human isn’t supposed to sound like a jet engine lol
I love this sound. Blue Skies
Sounds like jets!
How has this video not got more views

So what we hear is the plane moving through the air and not the engine. Cool!
What is the typical glide ratio of a wingsuit? What is the average slope of these Hills? Thank you!
Depends on the speed but 2:1 is the avg
@@seewhyaneyesee thanks!
@@seewhyaneyesee More like 3:1 when proximity flying

@@MrChris7582 thank you for the great reply, and honest assessment of your experiences 👍!!
Buena manera de grabar este deporte
Humans are flying!!!
What an awesome site
Thank you!
Sight dude
Sight, dude. ^^^ 😂
Even after watching in lowest slow motion they still fast

A big fat minor chord as you blaze by..I like it..
some of these guys look really low , if you get it wrong can you actually convert that speed into height at all .. or is it just down no matter what.
You can! Speed is safety
@@maxmustermann6248
many thanks
@@tomthompson7400 flare could create lift with that speed.

@@badasshaiti Comes a little late but: Thank you, great explanation!
Did anyone else notice the eagle on the cliff saying, "What the F@#&"!
Very Fast.... Best. Amazing...
How much time did you spend there to record it?
many many days
The videos were recorded during the whole summer
from june - september
maybe 10days...
Are they jumping frequently so you just need to go out there when its sunny? Or is it more likely you won't see any jumper for days?
big like 👌👏
They sound like fighter planes
Wow!
👍❤️🌹👍❤️🌹👍❤️🌹👍❤️🌹
What happens if you hit a bird? Shatter your face? Lose control, hit a tree and then instant dismemberment?
Im jelly
Suenan como F-16
pretty cool but they must be going over 100 mph. One false move, or a down draft and kiss your ass goodbye
What was that black thing in the right corner? Is that a ready coffin in case accident ?
🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅👍👏☠️💪
Gr gr kalian jd viral sesosok makluk terbang
wkwkwkw
That sound cannot be real.
They are flying at 140 MPH
