Jeb Corliss, Professional Wingsuit Flyer, Soars Above Mountains (VIDEO)

Man Flies Above Mountains

We're pretty sure this video will make you reevaluate your current career. How can you top flying?

Take a look as Jeb Corliss literally soars above mountains and, and some points, comes within a few feet of the ground before leaping back up again.

The key to Corliss's flight? A special body suit first used in the 1930's.The Wingsuit, or flying squirel suit, adds fabric between the legs and arms which allows the flyer to coast similar to a bird.

Because the flyers use declining altitude to glide from point to point, each suit contains a parachute for the final landing.

As far as extreme sports go, this might just beat fire surfing.

If this doesn't quench your daredevil thirst, you can take a look at another one of his flying videos here.
