First Posted: 10/04/10 12:17 PM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 06:55 PM ET

This is one of the coolest things we've seen in a while. Jeb Corliss, a TV daredevil, demonstrates the power and agility of wing suits in this video, which we found through our friends at BuzzFeed.

Previously, Jeb was banned from the Empire State Building after he tried to parachute off of it.

Watch the insane video of him flying through the skies below and let us know what you think. Would you ever trust a wing suit to keep you airborne?

What they don't show is the preceding gun battle that happens when he lands in the middle of a Favella.

It's small? No, that is how they end their flights since trying to land just using the suit would require them to do a massive flare (stall). Would be tough to pull off.
