This was without knowing that the wingsuit is actually an invention dating back to 1935. At that time, the materials used did not make it possible to manufacture reliable equipment, and its inventor paid for it with his life, as did the half-dozen or so successors who paid the price until 1998, when the father of the modern wingsuit died in a wingsuit.
Over the last few years, technology has made it possible to develop new, exceptionally resistant materials that have given rise to a new generation of wingsuits, undeniably safer, and therefore of wingsuiters.
However, our man-glider is travelling at 160 kph, with points at 200 kph. So it's a very impressive discipline. The question of landing inevitably arises. The wingsuiter is a parachutist. They simply use their parachute to land. So there you have it!
Finally, two years ago, BMW manufactured a motor consisting of two 15 kW electric turbines to power our flying men!
