Oddball/Interesting/ Gliding Videos

Finding the Blanik vid I just posted made me think about the Salto vid
with the wingsuit guy and it got me wondering about what else is out
there in the oddball/interesting/stunt catagory. I thought it would
possibly make for an entertaining thread topic, to try and get it
started I submit the following links:

While that site is a great site that I too long ago saved a link to
that one my personal collection of 'soaring' video links, it is kind
of off topic for the intention of this thread. There are a wealth of
gliding/soaring videos out there, but I want to collect a bunch that
of vids of the non-standard variety, like the ones already posted of
wacky stunts or irregularly configured aircraft or footage of an
experimental or stunting nature. (OK, high speed passes are exactly
not non-standard, but inverted ones are COOL and the head on shot that
scared the camera guy into ducking and into sounds like maybe cussing
in Polish were kind of neat though, IMHO).or like this one!

Keep'em coming though!
