To call him a daredevil doesn't really do him justice. He's more like
a live action comic book hero. When the Chinese, Russian and Malaysian
governments hire you to jump off their buildings for the entertainment
of the public, there's really no other way to think of it. Things like
that only happen in comic books, and typically to guys named Bruce
Wayne.
Dubbed the human bird, Jeb has been the subject of
documentaries, been featured on numerous television shows, and 20/20 has
had him in a special report, ‘Superhumans.' His accolades are too
numerous to list, and seem to show no signs of slowing down in their
accumulation. His latest project is The World Wingsuit League, which
just held it's inaugural event less than two weeks ago in China. Of
course Jeb trained and competed in the event, despite having sustained a
serious injury earlier this year in South Africa that broke both of his
ankles, several toes, one of his legs and created a gash that required
skin grafts to heal.Directory ofchina glass mosaic Tile Manufacturers, It would seem that nothing can keep this man from doing what he was made for, flying.
I
was fortunate enough to land a rare interview with Jeb for our readers
recently, where the topics ranged from his recovery to his thoughts on
Felix Baumgartner's space jump and everything in between.We have a wide
selection of dry cabinet to choose from for your storage needs. As a longtime fan and follower of his incredible feats,A stone mosaic

was blown away by how engaging he was, as well as being exceptionally
generous with his time. He's been at the top of my 'interview bucket
list' for years, and has completely enamored me with his absolute
dedication to living life to it's fullest measure.

Corliss: I don't know about a daredevil gene, but ever since I was a
really small child, I've just enjoyed doing things that scared me. It's
weird because things have changed over time. I've been doing this for so
long that the reasons why I did things in the beginning are very
different from the reasons why I do them now. You have to pretty much
figure what time in my history are you talking about to answer that. As a
child I did things for one reason, as a teenager I did them for another
reason, in my early twenties, it was another reason, and now, it's
something else. It's very complex.
Now, it's about pushing the
boundaries of what people believe is possible. I've developed a very
unique set of skills over a very long period of time, and I've become
incredibly good at dealing with large levels of fear. I'm very good at
dealing with fear that most people would shy away from or would cripple a
lot of people. Because I've developed these skills over the course of
my life, I've used them to do things that people think are completely
impossible. For me, it's the joy and feeling of accomplishment from
doing something that people think can't be done. That's what motivates
me and drives me. If people think it can't be done, or it's absolutely
ludicrous, I find that enjoyable.
The World Wingsuit League is a
competition among wingsuit pilotswhere the fastest and the best pilots
from all over the world get together to compete in a race that involves
extreme turns and proximity. The first race we did was just a few weeks
ago in the Hunan province of China. There's a cliff that gave us the
ability to jump, fly around at turnpoints, proximity fly a cliff, and
then go underneath a cable car, which is the finish line. It was wildly
successful. I had a feeling that people were going to be interested in
watching a race like this, but I didn't realize just how many people.
The ratings that we got were astronomical. It was in the hundreds of
millions of people that watched it live. Because it was so successful,
it ensured that it will be continuing for the next five years. There's
no question about it,Find detailed product information for Low price howo tipper truck and other products. and every single year, it's going to keep getting bigger.
