This was posted elsewhere, happened many years ago and probably never again. Some impressive flying by Clay Lacey also.

Guts yes, Stamina Yes, Skill No.

Unlike the other recent video of the guy who jumped out of an airplane without a parachute, this guy was just strapped to the top of a DC-8 and flown around at minimum speed for a while, which granted is more wind than what the sky divers had to endure.
