cow or a huge internet. now when you think of extreme sports it usually involves mountains rivers or even the skies as athletes battle nature to test their limits but that's not the case when you're an ace at pacu up the urban environment provides the obstacle course for free run as they run jump and climb their way over anything and everything and for frenchmen you on the rooftops of paris are the perfect playground. you on the roof has only one chance to make this jump. there are no safety nets below the rooftops of paris park or is a kind of extreme sport the roos been doing it professionally since two thousand and nine. he's built a philosophy around. here. is the art of forward motion pushing

limits it involves adapting yourself and your body to a certain environment becoming obstacles both mentally and physically is upset while. it also means being in continual motion and. you want has found an ideal place in the center of paris to get in shape not far from the dusty a pedestrian bridge over the center offers a wide range of opportunities to practice. viewers are advised against trying this at home no matter how easy it looks when you're on go strolling across the railings . i don't feel as if i'm in any kind of unusual situational but i have to be especially careful because ultimately just imagine i'm walking a straight line on the ground if i go by that principle i feel no stress. and there's no reason for me to fall as long as i can walk a straight line. but even the most experienced park or athlete slip up every once in a while. i

was holding on at this very spot and went to make a three hundred sixty degree turn when i executed the move i slipped and fell in the water. this bridge is ten meters high fortunately i can swim and i got out of the water by climbing up and not but i'll definitely remember that mishap forever only you can't afford that kind of mistake in this case i was lucky enough to land in the water. so when passers by see him in action how did they react. it is what you might cure some people are curious and ask questions they're interested others don't want to hear anything about it they're scared of what they don't you know. i always try to communicate courage instead of fear. just sitting there. the park or pro is always on the lookout for new locations to

practice his passion there are plenty of rooftops in paris but it isn't always so easy to reach them. a little east west and so on the roofs of paris are a gray area in legal terms where tolerated by the people who live there but you aren't allowed to access the routes via private entrances and there's no way to avoid that really. today johan has once again found a way up. his concentration before a jump like this is ferocious one wrong move could kill him. he says he doesn't want to think about the dangers. try personally don't connect what i'm doing to death in any way for me that's a very negative consent and you have to be careful employing it but you can also die just trying to cross the street what extent are so many external factors that

can become like you can live with it but at that point i'm out here on the rooftops then it's just me and my body coping with potential dangers of what others view as dangerous lies at the root of my walk with. you one has taken part in many international competitions in two thousand and thirteen he won the world champion title in the discipline he's also founded a french park or team and set up an academy where he teaches others of what he knows. to transport on it's a sport that anyone can practice no matter how old you are or what kind of shape you're in there are no excuses excuses it's about the art of movement and locomotion we all have bodies that we should be using regardless of age or experience. but no one says you have to start by leaping across paris rooftops. next up is a sport that is uplifting to say the least indoor skydiving if like me you're not

too sure about jumping out of a plane this is the perfect alternative it's just like real skydiving except there's no parachute and no risk of plummeting to certain death when it malfunctions it all takes place in a vertical wind tunnel maya could since gust started skydiving in her early teens and showed us just how to dance with the wind. this floating dancer earned my own place in sports history with the first ever title of junior world champion in indoor skydiving. is the air in the wind tunnel blows at up to three hundred kilometers an hour every movement is perfect the wind storm doesn't bother the polish athlete she likes it. obviously it kind of feels like sticking your whole body out of

a moving car leg it's just the same kind of like air pressure but you can control it so it's like sit with for years whatever you do your body does in that area but in the space you get. she takes her moves from other sports. fast dynamic twists come from figure skating. long stretches and figures from projects. where my kids in school combines them it looks like she's flying. her favorite figure is the pistol. she devises many of her moves in the tunnel or she has a completely different sense of his body when she's. like that at all on the ground. really. so we're flying it's not like you don't you catch translate anything from ground to fly

there's no like skills that except things like flexibility she was inspired to take on the sport by her father a huge fan of extreme sports. meyer joined him for her first parachute jump when she was just ten years old. the father supported her from the beginning this sport isn't. exactly cheap fifteen minutes in the wind tunnel cost up to seventy euro's in poland maya has been training several times a week since she was thirteen indoor skydiving has become the focus of our family's life for those of the systems because of those things but i do this sport too. bob said so i try to accompany my at every step of the way. i take care of the organizing i'm kind of like her manager. i look for sponsors who want to work with my mules the bombing persons like those of on the back into the country knows about them that's my role in her career as well. maia trying downside of the wind tunnel

too and completely without professional coaching in town every week day she's in school until three then she trains or has media appointments on weekends she often travels to competitions there's no time any more financial perceives. i do miss it sometimes but i think what i'm doing is self worth it so. my kitchens because performances in the wind tunnel up followed the world over she has numerous online fans. indoors kind of living is a fairly new sport the scene is small and maya wants to reach the top she combat defeat. goes up what i ask of those that come out i get you know every setback is like

a little tragedy i always need a few hours to motivate her again and to make it clear to her that this isn't the end of the world it is though. i took second place in the indoor skydiving world championship in twenty seventeen but her ranking isn't have the main interest i wanna try to gravitate more dynamic type of flying i want to be able to show really beautiful moves but at the same time mix them up with like super dynamic. yes it's just you know have like my own different style. is currently the stock of european indoors kind i think sponsors are hiring to appear in the thousands. now since i'm becoming the face of kind of having the well. now we're diving deep underwater usually snorkeling and scuba diving enthusiastic

choose tropical locations for their underwater adventures but there are plenty of opportunities in colder climes for instance in iceland where tourists can explore a hidden oasis of lakes among the volcanic landscape reaching them involves quite a bit of hiking so it's best to be in good shape and wrapped up warm if you fancy going on one of these expeditions. so crystal clear that you can see more than one hundred meters throughout. iceland is home to some of europe's last remaining underwater sequences. in the forthcoming or got to be as close as specializes in showing visitors icelandic diving highlights today and almost unknown place is on the agenda to help. unexpectedly it's located in iceland's highlands a diving paradise bought from the coast.
