Here is one of Jeb Corliss' great hits (or misses). It gets real interesting at about the 1:20 mark.

Good find Phred22.
The special effects in the Fred Astaire film are pretty good, but this guy actually seems to have flown between two buildings. I restrict my thrill-seeking to walking these days, but at my craziest, I don't think you would have ever gotten me into one of those flying squirrel suits, especially to fly between towers in a big city.
You're a better man than I, Gunga Din.
