Back in the 1950's some daring skydivers out in California learned how to control their bodies in flight.  They invented a stable "belly to earth" body position which would let the skydiver perform simple in flight tasks (look at the photo at the top left of this page, that's a nice, stable belly to earth body position.)  Recently the sport has evolved into 3 basic disciplines: belly flying, sit flying and head down.   The picture (right, above) is head down.  The camera man and subject are both head down and heading for the planet at about 180 mph. 

The folks below are "sit flying" and "head down" or  simply put

They have been seduced by the darkside!
