Wingsuit diving between buildings in Rio de Janeiro at 6am



Towleroad shares this amazing video of two men flying between buildings in "wingsuits" like something out of a Batman movie:
Ludovic Woerth and Jokke Sommer dive from gliders into Rio de Janeiro, landing in a park behind the 38-story Ventura Corporate Towers after flying between its double skyscrapers (at the top of the image below).

Wrote Sommer: "Ludovic and I doing a wingsuit flight into Rio de Janeiro. We did not have permission to fly into the city, but to respect the commercial air traffic we did the jump 05:45 in the morning. The first flights arrive at 06:05."
Pretty scary but cool at the same time.

Who's up for it? Want to try it?
