Wingsuited-man soars over Rotterdam

Flying dizzying circles along the Euromast wrapped in a wing suit, was Rotterdam resident Jarno Cordia's dream, AD.nl reports. And now that dream is a reality. Yesterday morning Cordia and Ronald Overdijk soared over Rotterdam in two wing suits, landing with one parachute. Cordia, who has been doing wing suit flying for 15 years has always wondered what it would be like to circle above the place, AD.nl reports. Cordia flew into Rotterdam at an altitude of one kilometre and then along the Euromast where his friends and family were waiting. It was very special, Cordia says. https://twitter.com/mccordia/status/504213714103721985
