Journalist Matt Higgins gained intimate access to wingsuit pioneer Corliss; a brash, publicity hungry rich kid from LA who, after years of BASE jumping and skydiving, set out to be the first person to be dropped 2,400 feet and land solely with the aid of a wingsuit. But somewhere in the UK, Gary Connery, a 42-year-old man of average means was plotting to beat Corliss at his own ?3 million game. This is a riveting, adrenaline fueled narrative about a group of unforgettable characters who risk everything to achieve man's age old dream of flying.
