A couple of guys with 'big stones' don wing suits and leap from Bluff Noll in WA. Shingleback on path 37 seconds into video.

Enjoy.

Looks similar to those I've seen throughout much of the wheatbelt, but still good to see them from different locals. Also interesting when you consider the weather extremes on Bluff Knoll, including high rainfall and even snow sometimes.

On a side note sad to see one of the guys in the video died this week base jumping in Switzerland.
