    Strictly speaking its wing suit flying but yeah insane.

    I watched this documentary about a guy in the USA a while ago who apparently has this condition where he doesn't feel fear and so is compelled to do dangerous things and he base jumps and wingsuit flies as a result.

    Him and his mate did a jump where they were to fly over an iron strut bridge and he made it but his mate hit the bridge and was cut in half. You could actually hear the bang on the video.

    In fact this is it (don't worry it was tastefully edited):



    ..and the guy recounting the tale is the one with the no fear condition.

    The same no fear guy also did an insane fly by down the ridge of the mattahorn - literally 10 feet off the rock at 100+ mph. He's one of the top bae jumpers / wing suit flyers in the US.

    He also got arrested trying to jump off the Empire Estate (he was actually over the safety barrier and on the outside when he got grabbed!)
