Sadly these near miraculous cases are vastly outnumbered wingsuit accidents where the jumper was killed.
Your chances of surviving a wingsuit, or any kind of BASE jumping accident are considerably worse than your chances of surviving a single round of Russian roulette with five rounds in the cylinder, even if you're the only player.
- simooooo 9y agoWouldn't you being the only player increase the chances of shooting yourself?

Your odds of surviving would be very slightly higher (depending on where you choose to shoot yourself) because, of course, a gunshot wound might not be fatal. Like I say, your chances of surviving a wingsuit accident (basically impacting the ground, a cliff, a tree, whatever) are considerably worse than this.
