Hurricanes destroy houses through a combination of extreme wind, coastal storm surges, and inland flooding. Wind speeds over \(74 \text{ mph}\) tear off roofs and break windows, while water damage from surges and heavy rain destroys foundations, warps walls, and fuels rapid mold growth.
Understanding exactly how these storms impact residential structures is crucial for property safety and insurance.

Wingsuit flying is an extreme sport where pilots wear a specialized jumpsuit that adds surface area to the human body using fabric "wings" between the legs and under the arms.
This aerodynamic design transforms vertical freefall into a high-speed horizontal glide, allowing flyers to soar through the air before deploying a parachute to land safely.
