They had a pretty good article on him on Nat Geo website yesterday. They said that he started base jumping then wing suit jumping because it too long to climb back down a mountain and was actually safer to jump.. The reason it was safer, was because he climbed with very little equipment, mostly just free climbed so with out ropes it's pretty dangerous to climb back down..
He would also free climb vertical walls wearing a parachute in case he slipped. Doesn't sound like he wanted to die, but he was quite a bit crazier than most..
