This fatality could of been prevented, Another young jumper rushing to base jump and getting into the wingsuit far too early.. He flew the line way to close and impacted with no experience in proxy flight and fairly new to wingsuiting this fatality could easily been avoided if he had of known his limits and slowed down..
