What’ll those crazy human monkeys think of next!
That was pretty cool.
Imagine being fired out of a giant chimney at 180kph. That’s exactly what Spanish wingsuit flyer Dani Roman and Frenchman Fred Fugen did in Slovenia, setting two Guinness World Records® titles in the process.
The pair took to the skies above Trbovlje using the world’s largest human catapult, built inside a 360-metre chimney – Europe’s tallest. The specially designed 60-metre system launched them straight upwards, accelerating from 0 to 180kph in just 2.15 seconds. After a brief moment of weightlessness at the top, they began falling back towards the ground before opening their parachutes and landing safely.
Would genuinely love to do that
Holy fuck!!!
Thats way more than a catapult…
Indeed, it might even be… a trebuchet.
