    It's just insane how close they get to the rocks, and at those speeds falling.

    I think my heart beat jumped just watching it.

    I don't think I'd be comfortable with the thought of a gust of wind being able to smash me into that rock.

    That looks so fun and would satisfy most people's dreams of flying. That said, I could never do it now that I am married with a kid. But man... what a blast that would be.
