The Take-Off

Why would anyone want to risk their lives doing wing-suit flying?  I went to see if there would be any birds flying at this particularly spectacular cliff, La Quille, on Diablerets glacier and just arrived there when someone jumped off. What a shock I got; no time for tripods or changing lenses. I managed to get only two shots before these men swooped off into the valley. The extra shows him a little further down, and the second extra is the cliff he was jumping from. The ledge is halfway down. Completely nuts! I hope they don't have any family!

Thank you to all of you who contributed to my bouquetins' photograph popularity. I hope you've had an excellent weekend.
