A First. Skydiver with wingsuit, jumps into boxes without wearing using parachute.

Imagine being a bit short or long on your landing. I see a neck brace, but don't see a protective face shield and it looks like he is wearing a parachute. Looks like a good way to become paralyzed or die...

"The Civil Aviation Authority would not let him fly without chute, Landing speed was 55mph, boxes were 12 feet high and football pitch in length"

In order to survive the audacious stunt, he had to flare his wing suit about 200ft from his target in order to bring his gliding speed down to 50mph and his vertical falling speed to 15mph.

Gee, how do you even practice for that?

Practice landings on clouds, then use the chute when you pop out the other side? Just guessing.

Having just moved a 3 bedroom house and seeing the cost of good boxes I think he would have been better off buying VooDoo and racing it.
