'Transformers' tries are very dangerous flying stunt

The third film "Transformers: Dark of the Moon," in the robot franchise, hits theaters on June 29. And while the focus will continue to be on shape-shifting CGI stars like Optimus Prime, Shockwave, and Bumblebee, one of the film's most impressive stunts was achieved by real, honest-to-goodness human beings. Yes, really!
A buzzy promo for the movie features a behind-the-scenes look at a group of precision skydivers who wear "wingsuits" while soaring through the air at around 150 miles per hour. The wingsuits, which look a lot like something Batman might use, allow brave souls to maneuver around tall objects, like, oh, say, the Sears Tower. Indeed, one of the most impressive stunts in the movie is exactly that. Move over, special effects artists.Michael Bay first saw the jumping team on "60 Minutes." The action director decided then and there to put them in "Transformers 3." In the video, which you can watch below, the team jumps off skyscrapers and out of helicopters, twisting and turning through downtown Chicago with amazing precision. These jumps have been done before, but never in a city, where tall buildings present logistical -- not to mention life-and-death -- challenges.This film will be very hit in the would.
According to an article from The Hollywood Reporter, star Shia LaBeouf was caught be surprise when the stunts were filmed. He "was eating breakfast... at the Trump building when he saw four men fall by his window."

Laden could manage save his life ..

 Wikileaks thinks if Osama bin Laden would know and read her Washington Post, could be safe yourself. An interesting article is published here.
 Muslim leader Osama bin Laden should have had his hideaway hooked up with Internet access: He might have saved his own neck by reading WikiLeaks files. The unusual assertion comes from none other than Donald Rumsfeld, who notes in a Washington Post op-ed that leaked classified files from Gitmo “contain clues about al-Qaeda’s courier network and even mention Abbottabad.” If bin Laden had “closely followed WikiLeaks’ release of these documents April 25.It is unlikely he would have been there when US Navy SEALs descended into his compound days later.”
The article makes rather interesting disclosures, informing:“Rumsfeld’s larger points are to excoriate WikiLeaks for its WikiLeaking ways and to assert that the documents provide “compelling evidence of the effectiveness of Bush administration anti-terror policies after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.” They vindicate the tough decisions made for national security and refute “myths” about torture at Guantanamo Bay, he writes. “Bush administration officials have much to gain from the release of this sort of record, but for our country’s benefit it must come in the proper time and through proper channels.”
 We can think, it would be a shame to have leaked information do damage. It could ruin a truly honest political figure’s career or reprehensibly strain international relations. If the strain is bad enough, war is a possibility.
