In this clip we take flight over South Africa –– and the Drakensberg Mountains in particular –– with the Red Bull Air Force for some dramatic shots of wingsuiters doing what they do best. That means gliding gracefully across the sky, flying way too close to solid objects, and generally giving viewers a minor heart attack. In this case however, the setting is grand, the sites are spectacular, and the flying is fun to watch. I say that because when it comes to wingsuiting, that’s all I want to do is watch!
