the law doing what i love moses along that people go to the edge for different reasons. ah. j dean fast knocked and her husband ziemen vonda are based jumpers. they dive off cliffs into the depths below him were you thanks to their wing suits, they can glide through the air before releasing a parachute for landing in montana, montana. i got the nickname bird woman because i love flying gen says, but my voice in my life is all about fly. taking off from the mountain feels more natural to me than jumping out of a plane. li, the piano you were according to the

statistics, there is a one in 60 chance of dying while based jumping. despite this geraldine fast not believes that danger is controllable. the pin fellow, when you jump off a rock faced, it's all about nature, dearly humpy, you high top climb, look at the animal, feel the air. and since if the conditions arise are, then you shall flight path over the terrain you put on the wings. this and get ready, are we so it's a clear everything becomes calm and quiet and then you fly away. so really the 40 year old has spent more than half her life jumping off mountains all over the world . and nowadays, she's accompanied by her husband mid island. pardon that it didn't, that is trans. i'm labeled to the building and it does was the bottom spending the rest of your life with someone who doesn't understand what we do would be completely impossible wound a dust was on to ma. hm. is not to the to should stay by. there's no way it would work, the long run should been domina, and that ignited be seen,

but doing this together is great, should stick assuring what you love doing with your partner as a best thing of all this money to small mod, it's not too late to sir, does hooks to the dingle base jumping isn't the only thing, jack hardin fast knocked henzy morn. vandella share their son. audi just turned one and a half to return it. but when parents had up into the mountains, little audion has to stay behind in the valley. meanwhile, j dean's mother takes over the babysitting duties. w o. o o. o by enjo dean's mind, her sport is not about playing dice with death, but fulfilling a dream. she did this, got the bundled boy,

i hate it when people talk about extreme sport this to being booklet, it's a sport that requires a lot of feeling, a lot of gentleness, knowing yourself and your own limits and haven't yet on that yet. you must also know how to step back and say no it's, there were times when i couldn't continue her. when i was pregnant, i stopped flying in the 3rd trimester after giving birth. it took me awhile to figure out if i even wanted to start again or not, or extreme to me means having something out of your control. but you're afraid of it takes about an hour to hike from their house nearby up to the exit. as the jumping off points are called and based jumper jargon, their biggest worry on this day is the weather time and again, clouds obstruct the view down into the valley. on a dinner did we have clouts and family escaped din optimed in shot. so when we make

the jump, the take off april, we really need the best possible visibility, enable us legal to that is to say, no clouds or fog in one mean distance. at the very least, you need an opening that gives us didn't fluke. so the, the answer to that then there is the flight itself as if it's extremely windy. of course, it can be a bit turbulent by the london and logically, the same goes for the landing spring and you can, i may be able to take off and have a good flight. but if there is such strong wind down, there were several valleys come together. i'm just moving backwards as soon as i opened the parachute regret and must not fun at all. my littlest sitting if it's cloudy, will wait to see if it clears her. there's always some one didn't the valley that contrived the clouds away, but we just need a bit of luck on our shot. so far, no luck. the weather is shifting. the openings and the clouds are too small, making the risk too big. they know every nook and cranny of their local mountain and could almost jump without a worry in this sport almost is still to unsafe. max

vander also used to be a base jumper. he has close to 1500 jumps from various mountains under his belt. but in april of 2017, he took his final leave. to day, the real estate developer lives in a small bavarian village on the comparatively safe side of life. here he licked his and looked up. the old relics are still there. give to me, i could sell them off. so risking that some one else kills themselves with my outfits on being the other option would be to throw them away. we are from boswell, and that would be a real shame it. oh, there are, after all, memories attached to the suits and not only bad ones, no, she left it above all, they evoke the feeling of flying. really. so looking at these old wings every now and then, is something special to me is out and flew in unbeatable answers. i wish, almost to san louis. claudia and marks are now and married couple for his

longtime girlfriend, getting out of extreme sports was a condition for accepting his proposal. what i'd say digits him here soon as you're almost alone, it was quite a change to be honest. what law going from being an extreme athlete with you helping from one barbecue party to the next and driving fast cars. so to driving an electric car and having an electric boat that goes 11 kilometers per hour. what's this hog? it's nothing dangerous anymore. he's mere normal motorcycles, noble jumping, a vague and diet unable so awesome. you could almost say that all of this was an extreme transition to low max. his willingness to take risks increased from year to year and had more than one started with noticeable and it got faster and faster. riskier and riskier and what's the next step much, why? well, it's already such an extreme sport that the next step is just going closer to the edge. with this boat, you can't make mistakes, get

a lot. and when we became aware of that, yeah, that's when i go scad. this is, it's in, on the one hand of her attain has been broken off, but on the other it has been a relief, accuracy life. but there's a new found. com that's exactly for the now 33 year old. it had become a compulsion to keep daring riskier jumps, for example, from the highest mountain in europe. so i use it. i still have some jumps on here that i like to look at again. like this. one of my favorite jarman from the time at mont blanc. i the sir and this joke and the flight that follows through these different climate zones. one could almost say you fly past the glazes, then over meadows and pastures once on the most aluminum. and then you land at the bottom in the hate of a summer's day. if you divisional omen law live m o. we go from minus 5 degrees celsius at talk all to 30 degrees plus at the bottom most less is for us.

and there are about 3000 meters of altitude difference from exit to landing equals of x. it takes forever. and as you can see for the 1st you are above the clouds, almost like a skydive jumping out of a plane. and only later, these alpine pastures appeared and the forest is and it's still flying and more flying blue. it just goes on and on. and then before you just keep flying, i always enjoyed these long flights. the most flying was all i ever really wanted to do. that was my main obsession. when it helped hopes assume the sport ended up costing the life of 6 of his comrades and friends escaped. as on alyssa, there's a list with all the people who have died while jumping all, and it's pretty gruesome slim that you need to scroll all the way down until you see the most recent case. you just keep scrolling past movies, fatalities,

and the names of that dead, ma'am. and, and everybody knows each other in the scene. it's just so small. i'm still the class. he seemed unaffected by it. and that really made me face mid and vicky to thank you again 0 hope to for our question is what has to happen for a person to get to that point? what drove me so far, to the point that i had to jump off mountains. to give an example, i simply noticed that when someone had an accident, when someone died or something bad happened, it left me feeling completely cold. it somehow didn't concern me. we would even go to funerals with our gear in the trunk because we plan to jump off a mountain afterwards. only burger touchscreen funds him as a slim service. my. the west was when a man with family had died long basement. there was a photo of him that with his young kid. and the caption said that his family, his wife and his child meant everything to him. and if amelia's and i just thought, i love it, no, that's not true. he meant flying men. christine,

for him is leaking for alice fain with john eve blonde dog lives in the french alps. he is a designer, inventor, and extreme athlete. he was a student at the school of design and paris when his life took an unexpected turn. what started as a thesis became his profession, his sport, and his product. the 51 year old became the roller man. and all the story of the buggy rollin began as a study of the sense of violence and the look emotion of the human body in space. for the pan i started off, it didn't occur to me that it could ever become an extreme sport of its own thought . it was more a search for something that didn't exist yet than me. you just take a leap into the unknown, took not even knowing for go g, but you set out on the journey. regardless the result of his thesis, a kind of armor fitted with 24 rollers optimized for speeding down steep mountain

roads. john eve lawn door has gained a following on social media in the guise of his alter ego rather math. individual videos of his descent have been clicked more than 27000000 times. yet the hybrid between man and machine has very real feelings. our way was april for yes, i am certainly afraid, silva. i would say fear is a lifesaver who has been without fear. you wouldn't live very long. the latest innovation from his workshop. an electric drive that also makes rolling possible on a level surface his friend and collaborator, kristof under your tar, is helping to develop the controls with his daughter. kyla is about to test the prototype. the 17 year old has been rolling since she was 9. 0 to did yeah. she kumasi saw at 1st i wrote without electric, which was fine if i but the fact is when it gets dangerous, it's easy to buy with the electric dish and cooler egg lately. the test run is to

take place on the coil daily shore. half way between abbey, in an se, made of plastic aluminum alloy, ice, steel and carbon. the suit alone weighs about 15 kilos. and that's without the electronics in lights, gates and helmet. but the descent to day seems problematic. at the top of the pass, the mountain disappears into the fog, which could make their venture to risky. wilson, it's a bit wet. was it military then? or do we hurry or do we go down to honesty? i don't know the forecast is is cold and rainy walks. i think it will get worse as i don't know. the question is can we roll if it stays like this little oh, and they want to give it a shot. everything has to be prepared in case the fog lifts. lemme to your vinegar. see to tell her alchemy before we came cleared up and now it's cloudy

. we have 2 problems in the traction and the visibility. yeah. if you have drops of water on the visor, well you can listen potent details compared to the title and your field of vision isn't very big anyway, or now. so and it's blurry on top of that, sarah, it's not exactly good for us. is silly through hon. for me, as with race car drivers, every curve, every bump, every breaking point must be internalized the difference. there are no run off areas for moments of danger. instead, there is oncoming traffic. that is forest, that is down then left towards a small wave and then a big wave was on the inside of the 1st right curve. you need to turn your body slightly, you do the same. and the 2nd one is only a little tighter. a little early to push the brakes and exert a bit more. force him. i like john even christoph kehoe. i can use the electric motor to break. that is if everything works of the true a little bit,

feel pretty come rested and ready to roll. are you guys? i'm thinking a little stressed. yeah. but i trust both of them. yeah. i'll be in the middle her . so i'll let sean e lead me and my father will be behind to safety to the rest of your day to day. i'm up. the fog has lifted. it's go time in value, things look different. clouds are still blocking the view. it's a test of patients for shy dean fast not and z mon vonda. with these conditions, risking a jump is out of the question. dimension the mcclintock. humans have always been climber, sir. we climbed trees and scaled the mountains. and what is that and what has always been the dream of humanity flying, endless. yeah, martin, come are we're doing comes very close to realizing that dream will does is for me that's the key to understanding what we do. lawn kick. sure. you get a kick and

a shot of adrenalin. was there something human to it that was, and i think that's the most important. dana does master style house. the feeling of being at one with the elements 1st came to share ideas with a snowboard under her feet. she became known as one of the world leading free writers is she is in spotty. here. i am athletes. i started my career in school again in the company. i turned cry when one price is a snowboarding i. and now i'm a conference. speak any boston about if he man, i talk about risk evaluation and help people achieve their goals and dreams. i had his essay on the eval headings. essences, every july dean is fearless, even though her 1st husband died in a speed flight accident was sport, relatively similar to hers. oh, my daughter is known by our lives will all in some day had so said very little, i've decided to live my dream every day. cuz she decided doing what i love,

it's my leak on my have to little walk. fast casual of crystal on the mox vander also lived his dream of flying. but 2016. the year before he quit turned into a nightmare for the base. jumping, seen, 37 athletes plummeted to their deaths. it gave max a reason to reflect on his own life and addiction. to me as mother jumping out of the plane for the 1st time is an insane feeling. but once you've done at 50 times, it becomes norma, just like riding a bike was so we kind of have to kick it up a notch to get the same feeling with base jumping. it's the same as the 1st base jumps were insane, but at some point it felt normal momma. and once you understand and recognize this dynamic, you also realize that it's a dead end. because at some point your number is up. the situation arrives where you've taken it a step too far, and then it's all over bonuses for boy, for the 1st time, after years of abstinence max vander wants to hike up to an exit accompanying his

friend michael. if i should be. but this time he won't be jumping dorothy long. i don't know if you have a buddy long time. so nice that we could meet up that was of rough. or should we take the usual path again when a mile on her on of the ascent of the dragon vamp is 600 meters. it takes about 2 hours. difference should i think it's beautiful go . all the old feelings are welling up. it's weighed in lot, especially now that i see marco again had fun. i'm really excited to see it again. live how he jumps off and flies away that i've explored. max had to find out for himself. how fin the line is between obsession and passion, courage and contempt for death shop. they are, i had the feeling that i was going down the wrong path and that i had to make some changes animals. i started working with a coach with whom i was for able to uncover,

mold the dynamics at work within me. come from last. what are the motives behind my actions, and where do they come from is look law. and when that becomes clear to you, you immediately accept the consequences. wanted on it. often i have to stop doing this at some point on that as on if i wasn't able to quit right away. well sure, but it gave me a way out of the sports for claudia, returning to the values like deja vu for years she waited anxiously below, hoping that marks would fall from the sky in one piece. a really good book. okay. we're turning around. i'll talk not being in. yep, no jumping you here. good. yep, definitely to set on that. i trust and 100 percent at base jumping is a chapter that has been closed funded our market now days. i also like talking with marco about it and reminisce, but everything has its time. it's behind us now. it's in the past is office to the downhill course of the buggy rollers is almost 3 kilometers long. with top speeds,

well over 80 kilometers an hour. i sensation, seekers as extreme athletes are called with in sports, psychology emit less. cortisol have a lower heart rate and feel comfortable in stressful situations. the right is short, but intense with we oh fellow doing carl, however, pretty fine at that time. so i had trouble staying on you guys. it was really vibrating even. did you drive it full throttle, just wanted to know had to break, otherwise i would have gone too fast. the see in this suit is really big. you any why? that's why i didn't feel as comfortable as usual to my vehicle, is it? john?

eve has 5 brothers and a sister. all of them are involved in extreme sports. one brother was killed in a paragliding accident, a few years ago. with sampson paperless bought her list, las boy lying as the sport in that is paragliding and skiing as well. sound was always something that united us as siblings and as a family was here, the left dad started at all, but he but he was escape jumper and he loved flying. kimberly, yes, it was all about jumping and flying to russell oliver montage on eve is the only one who stayed on the ground you versa. so la jolla, bona general have is when i fly on the road, not through the air, nobody should channel to. i always dreamed a flying usa, but my dream took a different shape on that. was one excuse nicholson. he bought it for years. max vander was driven by his search for the flow status were risks fade away. this time seems to stretch endlessly and happiness. hormones work like

a drug to day he has found a way out of that addiction here. boy, oh hey, this is do you are on air? ah, ma'am, as it is things ever get milk? i missed a flying itself. but putting on the old wings and jumping off here, wouldn't even cross my mind for business. those that i can't do any more. give him oh, michael varnish beer has turned the freeform into his profession. to hear this must be jumped number 4000 for you. the rise, no idea. i said so what's your guess hurricane yeah, i don't. i really don't know. i think it's somewhere between 9 and 10000 to in the lottery. yeah. boy wasn't well not sure. what makes you differently up in? i think everyone has a thing where they like to push themselves to the limit. so i think so, oh boy. but maybe every one has a different approach or a different attitude on the the only way you could push the sport any further and

make it more extreme would be to start flying into cliffs. skiing of on flim gifted with a booming industry wing suits him rapidly evolved into high tech devices from the free fall of earlier generations to day steerable wings still at 200 kilometers per hour with no way to break. any mistake is fatal. oh ah, i'm already looking forward to it the year you should i was you still follow filling? normally i'm making sure that i will be back under ground to petersburg and checking the wind and just enjoying it. as my i tried to be conscious about my surroundings and focus on what i'm doing. so if i had manage all they cared ourself,

and 321 says, wish diana to leash on the fog. of course, i asked myself to question, why does someone risk their life time and time again for a feeling and for those who do must answer for themselves persist beyond and in my own story, it was me that had to come up with the answer that my motivations were the wrong ones dosage. this is as low self esteem combined with obsession. it is simply a very toxic mixing sciences, especially when it comes to a sport like this on, on a half. so in response to lift on g, hardin fast, not local mountain. the clouds are slowly breaking up. time to get ready. since becoming parents, geraldine and z more know that every day life can also habits thrilling moments. nevertheless, they don't want to give up. their passion for leaping had 1st into the void. could for the get bought on to the saunas just before our son was born last month,

as i didn't have the desire to jump anymore, feel like, and maybe it's just engraved in our dna that you become a protector. and that moment, since you don't want to expose yourself to additional risk and just say to yourself, it will more than i have. i don't need this anymore and that is for long, the desire becomes optional. or shortly after the birth i felt like doing another jumps, lunch. so i walked up here alone jumped off. and when i landed, i said to myself, by the law me up, this really is my thing is, shall, monday, just before the jump peak concentration is it? oh, okay. 3, do one.

and then in unity j dean and his him on realize mankind's age old dream to fly like birds. disregarding the dangers of death. ah ah ah with
