Real Or Fake? A Guy In A Wingsuit Jumps Off A Mountain And Lands On Water Without A Parachute

This video of French wingsuit flier purportedly landing on a lake in Italy without a parachute is making the rounds today.

In it, Raphael Dumont supposedly climbs a mountain, jumps off it, glides over the lake, and then skims along the water to stop himself without a parachute.

A bunch of people are calling it a fake. The reasons:

  • There are no other wingsuit videos online with "Raphael Dumont."
