Competitive Indoor Skydiving Is a Real Thing, and It's Totally Insane http://ift.tt/1Unmm9d

When asked about extreme sports, I've always said, "I'll never pay to jump out of a plane, but I would try that indoor skydiving thing. It looks safe and easy!" But after seeing this video of a professional indoor skydiving competition, that impression has completely changed. Maybe it's the intense Requiem For a Dream soundtrack playing in the background, the athlete's TRON-reminiscent getup, or the fact that he is performing dizzyingly fast, complicated moves in mid freakin' air, but it has become apparent that there is far more to indoor skydiving than my original impression.

As this video (and others like it) spread like wildfire across social media, there's no doubt that this sport is the next "big thing" to watch. Who knows . . . maybe by the next Olympics, there will be an indoor skydiving category!
