The fastest woman in the world?

By Business Chicks | May 26, 11 11:16 AM

Heather Swan is a world-renowned explorer and extreme sportswoman who currently holds the Guinness World Record for the highest Wingsuit BASEjump from Mt. Meru (6604 metres) in India.

Heather Swan is one of Business Chicks’ favourite presenters. She is currently a dual world record holding wingsuit pilot, and she would love to add the title 'fastest woman in the world' to her resume. 

To do that, in June this year she and her husband Dr. Glenn Singleman will take a hot air balloon 39,000ft above the Australian outback where they will jump out and fly in their wingsuits about 30kms at speeds around 450km/hr.  

If they are successful they'll set a new world distance record. Heather will be the fastest unpowered woman in the world and Business Chicks will have an amazing new story to be thrilled and inspired by.

They've done all the training, they have all the technology, they're just a little short on sponsorship.

So if you'd like to be a big or small part of this amazing adventure please contact Heather at heather@baseclimb.com. No offer of help is too small.

Heather - you are without a doubt one of the most incredible women I've ever met and I'm so proud of you for taking on this next challenge. Business Chicks - I urge you to support Heather and Glenn with their latest adventure. As Heather says, every little donation you can make will help.
