Daredevil Flies Through Waterfall

Daredevil Flies Through Waterfall. Hurtling past mountains at 85mph, a daredevil has become the first man to fly through a waterfall wearing a wingsuit.

Jeb Corliss, 35, came within five feet of the cliff face and had to battle against turbulence as he completed the challenge in the mountainous region of Lauterbrunnen in the Swiss Alps.

The daredevil, who had been planning the stunt for over a year, attempted the flight eight times before he finally succeeded.

Corliss, from California, who plummeted three feet for every one he moved forward, spoke of the moment that the water hit him mid-flight. He said: "When I hit the waterfall it was a shock, I really felt it weigh down on me as I travelled through at near to 90mph."
