The group members, who came from 21 different countries, jumped out of five separate planes at 13,000ft above Perris Valley in Southern California, in a bid to enter the Guinness World Record Book.

It is the first time a wingsuit formation skydive has been submitted to the record-breaking association, the 'Daily Mail' reported.

Flying for more than two miles at speeds of up to 129 kmph, the group stayed close together and managed to achieve an incredible diamond formation.

Each member wore a wingsuit, which consists of fabric stretched between a skydiver's arms and legs and allowed them to travel horizontally, as well as slow their descent toward the ground.

Anyone attempting a wingsuit flight must have a minimum of 200 skydives behind them, the report said.
