This has come up onto the radar several months ago and today Clusterstock has The Coolest Thing We've Seen In A While. As one that dreamed about being able to fly, and how cool that would be - I watched ravens and eagles, soaring. I have had the fortune of flying a lot in my life, professionally and personally. I am even seriously evaluating getting my pilot's licence. My mom got her's when she was 50 and flew for over 20 years. Anyhow, these new flying squirrel suit are amazing. I really am not sure I would have the courage to be able to do that, but it is sure fascinating to watch. Screaming along the mountainside, I can't help but think about down draughts and shear rock walls? But hey, they're obviously having fun! I've attached a couple of video links to enjoy! Sit down, and make full screen - I think its worth it.
