It's obvious to me that you are really wanting to have a go! Perhaps you should introduce it as a new sport at your Academy.

It must be an incredible feeling, to soar through the air like that. I might have tried it, thirty years ago!

Thank you, Fr. The Spalding kids have discovered a new ambition to save up their money for:). It makes a mother shudder to think.

Funny - I saw lots of footage of the flight... but no landings. Is this something that you just do once? ;-)

I thought the very same thing when I first watched the video -- then near the end I saw them release a parachute from the suit, and the mystery was solved.

That looks so awesome! It must feel like having wings! Must be pretty scary jumping off a cliff though...
