I saw the documentary when this guy and his aussie friend did a wing suit jump out of a plane
this guy flew under a bridge and his mate was supposed to fly over it
- he hit the rail and was killed

Seems like he had a very close call on this one

^ Saw that too, gruesome, especially for the numerous spectators standing on the bridge at the time.

Yes, KBM it is the same guy (Jeb Corlis). The below video is from that doco.
They cut out the 'moment of impact' from the footage but it is clear what happened. It is worth watching the video just to hear Jeb describe what happened. Chilling stuff....
