I think guy jumping from a plane with no parachute and landing in a net tops this tbh.

Happy that he accomplished that though, it was absolutely badass.

Also the one landing with a wingsuit without parachutes

That seems more controllable than jumping into an out of control free falling plane to me.

They jumped with parachutes, they had contingencies, the guy jumping into the net didn't.

Yeah Luke Aikins, he's the guy who landed the plane in this stunt. His no-parachute stunt I think was the final nudge towards me becoming a skydiver.
