    I'd love to do it myself. They fly sometimes inches from the edge of cliffs and mountaints.

    Would you be willing to try it? Have you skydived or basejumped?

    Yeah, you're probably right! I want to see someone put on a suit that looks like a flying squirrel and flies from a downtown building.

    I would do it. I wonder how easy it is to land with suit like that. Your leggs are linked together with wing.
