This is the most interesting video of this crash yet. It’s in real time which allows you to appreciate how much skill was involved in stopping his spin, regaining control of his wing suit, and opening his parachute after disintegrating his legs.
He gets the parachute open and loses just enough speed to make a survivable crash landing. Then you get to watch and hear him breathing in agonizing pain for one whole minute. Kinda hardcore.
