Synchronized Indoor Skydiving Team Champions

Team Singapore dominated the 5th FAI World Indoor Artistic Skydiving Championships in Charleroi, Belgium, last month. They placed in a couple of team events and won a speed competition as well. Above is their performance in the 4-way Dynamic Open routine, in which they won first place. Don't blink or you'll miss moves you couldn't imagine were possible in a wind tunnel, and they make it look effortless. These athletes aren't limited to indoor skydiving; they jump out of planes all the time.

While I look at indoor skydiving as a bit, okay, a whole lot safer than the outdoor version, I can imagine I would find myself plastered to the ceiling or else flailing like an idiot until someone came and got me or else turned the air off. Meanwhile, these athletes are doing air ballet. Don't miss their dismount, when they actually exit the wind tunnel backwards. -via Geeks Are Sexy
