That U-2 was fine, but if you want something REALLY breathtaking...

Hats off to those guys, you must have to be really, really good at judging your rate of descent for some of those ridge and canyon passes.

I'd imagine the amount of extra lift you could generate with a bat suit would be minimal, at best, if you suddenly found yourself with too much sink-rate and not enough sky. I guess you'd only get to make that mistake once!

Holy **** I almost can't believe it's real!!! Those guys really got to know where they are flying, because I suppose there is no way up again...? If the fly into a valley and suddenly see it's a dead one, they are lost... They fly real low here and there!

Incredible stuff!

Nah, no way Jose.

Adrenalin, shmemalin, I'll stick to a fast turn in my boat for all the thrills I need.

Good flight he said, if going downhill like a torpedo with minor extra lift could be good.

Never jump out of a perfectly good airplane, or a perfectly good boat, or off a truly safe cliff-edge.
