Jeb Corliss has been swooping across landscapes in his flying squirrel wing suit for a few years and the video has always been breathtaking. But recently, Jeb has plastered high definition GoPro cameras all over his body for some amazing in-flight perspectives. Near as I can tell, he’s got front and rear facing helmet cams, a chest cam, and an ankle cam covering his HANO (High Altitude No Opening) antics. His latest video, posted last weekend, shows how well multiple cameras can work together to create a visually stunning record of a single event that would be difficult, or impossible, to shoot in multiple takes.

I always wondered just why this guy wore a helmet. Now I know it’s not to protect his head, but to give his cameras a solid mounting point.
