I know nothing about wingsuits -- how are they used from planes and helicopters? Do you just jump and then use a parachute when you get low enough?

- amenghra 9y agoCorrect. A few people have landed with their wingsuits, but that's pretty rare. Look up Gary Connery or Jeb Corliss for example. You are still going pretty fast, you need ideal terrain (angle, water or boxes), and a hundred things have to go perfectly fine. It's a pretty insane feast.
- joelrunyon 9y agoYup - instead of freefall, you "glide." Then pull your chute whenever. Here's an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2VIbrVVQRw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2VIbrVVQRw
