What Is It?

it is a picture in the skies taken over Lake Elsinore, California, it is America's largest ever wing suit formation, the record-breakers - who came from 16 different countries - jumped from four planes at 13,000 feet, president of the group behind the American record, Raise the Sky, Taya Weiss, 32, said that some onlookers had even mistaken them for a UFO, 'We did 15 jumps at this event, seven of which were using all four planes together, before achieving the record, the shot was by British cameraman Mark Harris, who wore a helmet-mounted camera while flying a wing suit on his back underneath the group, the good news is that not only did the participants have a great time, the charity, Raise the Sky a non-profit organisation founded in 2009, seeks to have every skydiving record associated with raising money and awareness for a good cause, this wing suit record raised $5000 for the charity City Year, which provides mentoring to keep underprivileged children in school, 'We drop out of planes to keep kids from dropping out of school,' said Taya, a great big 'well done' to all concerned.
