A couple of months ago I blogged about a Finnish guy with one of these flying squirrel suits who strapped jet engines to his feet, jumped from a balloon, and shot off into the wild blue yonder. Today's New York Times had this piece about a guy who's going to try and land using one with no parachute. Check it out and make sure to click on the video links. The YouTube video is especially mind blowing.
I like that picture on the right. They look like funny puffy little angels.
