Oh ... its a wingsuit.

People have been working on various ways to land a wingsuit without using a chute for the final descent for 10 years or more.

The real issue is the stall speed is too high, so you either need:
- to land up the side of a steep mountain
- fit an undercarriage
- have something catch you.

Good to see someone has pulled it off. Not a particularly practical landing method but its a start.
