Video: Man in Wingsuit Flies Through Cave at 155mph
OutdoorHub Reporters 04.17.13
Alexander Polli may not be a superhero, but his incredible 155mph flight through Batman Cave is nothing short of incredible.
Polli jumps from a hovering helicopter, slicing through the air and approaching Batman Cave rapidly. As he reaches the narrow opening Polli commits and hurtles through the cave and exits the other side unharmed.

Polli is a Norwegian-Italian extreme athlete and has been planning and promoting this stunt for weeks. He specializes in tactical wingsuit flying, as seen in this video, and also in BASE jumping.
Most wing suit enthusiasts would not even attempt a stunt like this because, as the video description states, “there can be no attempting, the only option is success!”
Batman Cave is located in the Roca Foradada Mountains in Montserrat, Spain. It is a mountain range that Polli says has inspired his flying dreams for his entire life.
