Check out this aerial view of Gary Connery’s world record wingsuit landing. On May 23, 2012, stuntman Gary Connery became the first skydiver in history to land a wingsuit without a parachute, with the help of 18,000 cardboard boxes as his landing strip. The people who helped set up all those boxes were probably a little pissed, considering more than 75% of them weren’t used… but probably not as pissed as Jeb Corliss (kidding, kidding). Congrats Gary!

Cool compilation of the Dubai International Parachuting Championship (DIPC) at Skydive Dubai. Starting with crash crash crash crash crash, swoopers in the accuracy zones after dragging a LOT of pond. Only two people stood up; see if you can pick ‘em out. Speed runs are next… lots of footage of a lot of different competitors. And obviously gotta throw a little 4-way in at the end. You can also check out these mad swooping skills in Dubai.

If you’re unfamiliar with the genius that is SoCal Converge, allow me to introduce you to Andy and Travis. They’re badass. This is what world-class skydiving looks like. Take notes.

Highly revered as an event for newbies, with visions of wet A-License stamps on foreheads, Bridge the Gap is great for newbie freeflyers as well. 12 different coaches, bridging the gap between where you are in the sport and where you want to be. Bam. Join us in 2013 at Skydive Elsinore!

Thirty-four seconds to watch this guy get hucked in the air by some big-ass rubber bands in what looks like a plastic cocoon. What goes up, must come down! Put it this way.. there’s no way I’d ever do this. Watch and let us know in the comments if you would.

If there’s anyone who knows how to organize and film wingsuit formations, then slice up a sexy video edit, it’s Jarno Cordia of Fly Like Brick. Lots of great footage from the 2011 Flock & Dock event at Z-Hills in Florida. I also recommend checking out Fly Like Brick’s aerobatic wingsuit flying.

OMG! This has to be one of the craziest/scariest tandem videos I’ve ever seen. Kinda makes me feel sick just watching it, but luckily this tandem instructor’s negligence ends without casualty. Long story short, this 80 year-old grandma does a tandem skydive for her birthday and nearly falls out of the harness because it’s not properly adjusted prior to exit. Certainly not your typical tandem jump, but WOW is this scary. Barf.

Swooping and low turns don’t go well together. Gravity and broken femurs do though. Stay away from the latter… it’s not a good combo. Unless you’re one of those “chicks dig scars” kinda guys. Even then, I don’t recommend it. Just ask this guy.

Absolutely incredible footage from Project XRW of wingsuiters flying alongside parachutes over Skydive Sebastian. The PD Factory Team setting the canopy base, and the wingsuit pilots — organized by Taya Weiss — coming in to fly their slots. Amazing inside and outside footage of the whole thing. The exit shot of the wingsuit pilots… wow! COOL. The evolution of our sport before our eyes.

Congrats to stuntman Gary Connery on making aviation history on May 23, 2012 as the first skydiver in the world to land a wingsuit without a parachute. The landing strip consisted of 18,000 cardboard boxes stacked 350ft long, 40ft wide and 12ft deep. Crazy, but way cool. What an amazing “first”… that’s beer Gary!
