Kinda makes me wonder what kind of force or backdraft applies to the object so that it explodes outward in a circular fashion.

I think that's just hydrostatic shot causing the circular explosion. I've seen similar high-speed videos of bullets tearing crap up with similar results. No special circumstances.

I figured this would belong her too:

Wingsuit base jumping, insane stuff. :) If I weren't so afraid of heights and bent on getting myself killed I'd pick it up. :roll: But very cool anyway.

hehe, I'd do it. :twisted: Well, first I'd just do some wingsuit base jumping before buzzing cliff faces and crap. Looks fun as hell.

Yeah, fun, but one meter to the right and/or ground in a few shots there and the guy's pretty much a goner. Don't know if I like that part so much. :P

Still, could need it in games. At least if I fly to a horrible death there I can reload. ;)

I probably wouldn't do wingsuit jumping. It looks like something that requires alot of practice and years, perhaps decades of experience doing other crazy shit. I'm not worried about the death cos I think at that speed you won't feel a thing.

heh, yea, 100mph with nothing but a plastic suit... I doubt you'll feel anything.

I've gone sky diving... I could see jumping out of a plane with a wingsuit and just zipping around for awhile. That's be awesome. I wouldn't be doing that ground-buzzing crap, probably not ever. I could see jumping off a high bridge with a wing suit or other similar, not-quite-so-dangerous base jumping. Of course, jumping off anything with a parachute isn't exactly safe.
