I'm not 100% certain, but i think it's fake.

Looks fairly real, but I have a hard time saying it's smart or safe.
The question comes up of getting caught between vehicles like he did with the scooter,
if he stops suddenly he's tire meat, if he gets jolted and skids off the side of the road,
there a lot that can go wrong, other than standing up you've got no way of generating
forward momentum other than downhill gravity.
None the less.. we'll probably see it made into a game or a movie scene like parkour or similar was handled.
-
Looks fun, highly dangerous..and fun.
I don't think it's fake, and if it's fake they did a good job faking it.
-
Pretty cool video. Can't decide if I think it's real or not, but either way it's sweet. :)

Rigs like this have been around for awhile - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Yves_Blondeau.
Not sure what their legality or availability for sale is though.

You guys haven't seen Yes Man have you?
They're real...and I want some! :D
-
Looks real to me. And like a lot of unsafe fun. But that's one of the best kinds, eh?

Now, if you combine the wingsuit with this as landing gear... ;7
:p

"How do you define 'real?'"
---
Whoever did the camera work had a remarkably steady hand. Makes me think they were using professional tools, or the whole thing (not necessarily the idea) was fake.
-
I figured the camera was mounted on a scooter or something.
-
I saw that a while back (years). I believe Snopes covered it, and it's actually quite real.

Wingsuits are pretty much the dopest of dope things. Also incredibly dangerous, and I'm not the type to say that lightly. Please note the first name in my personal text.
I still really really want one though...
