Amazing - he is one crazy guy - but Im jealous - what a feeling that must be to fly so close to the ground at that speed. Awesome.

Amazing...
but it reminds me of the joke... "I didn't realize I had diarrhea until I took my bicycle-clips off..."

i hung out with jeb for a week at the grand canyon when he was the host for a discovery channel show called stunt junkies [and a few months after i met him, he was kicked off the show for an attempted empire state building base jump]
i was hired to build the ramp for this episode:

)
