A stuntman has made aviation history by becoming the first skydiver in the world to land without the use of a parachute. Gary Connery, 42, from Oxfordshire, leapt from a helicopter a mile above Henley then glided down using a specially adapted wing suit before landing on a “runway“ of 18,000 cardboard boxes. “It was so comfortable, so soft. My calculations obviously worked out and I’m glad they did,“ he told Sky News afterwards. His wife Vivian said she was “relieved its all over“. To prepare for the jump he underwent weeks of intensive training in Switzerland and Italy, leaping from mountains and cliffs to perfect his wing suit glide angle. As part of the preparations, Mr Connery studied the flight of kite birds and how they use their tail to control their flight direction. &qu
