There have been quite a lot of stunts performed by skydivers over the years and this one has to be one of the coolest of them all. Jumping out of a perfectly good airplane is already a sign of madness, but jumping out of a perfectly good airplane without a parachute and with just a pair of shorts on you is definitely beyond crazy… or so it would seem. My personal opinion? Coolest jump ever!

Of course the Mi-34 Hermit can’t go mad. But the pilot can :) This little Russian helicopter built by the famous Mil Helicopters is capable of some insane aerobatic maneuvers. Equipped with the same M-14 nine piston radial engine found in high performance aerobatic airplanes such as the Sukhoi Su-26 and Su-31, this little helicopter is capable of pulling 3Gs and can perform loops and rolls and stuff like that. It is in fact an absolute delight to see this one at work… soundtrack is good too!

One of the most extreme, crazy, mad, insane … ( and the list can go like this for pages ) stunts I have ever seen. Surely, he knew what he was doing and was in control the whole time, but man, there is something about having a burning parachute over your head that gives me goose bumps. Ever heard the expression: “He’s on fire!”. Yeah, that sounds kinda right for this one.
