BASE jumpers and wingsuit pilots Jokke Sommer, Espen Fadnes and Ludo Woerth have left Chamonix and headed to China to fly the breathtaking Tianmen mountains.
Rising high and steep, the rock formations are perfect for a dramatic, technical and beautiful flight. But with a gusty exit, the pilots have their reservations.
On the second flight something unexpected happens – one of the wingsuit pilots experiences a close call when a wingsuit equipment error nearly causes a fatal accident.

The scariest thing in this video is how they drank the water from the stream. I realize he boiled it, but this is China; you can’t boil out heavy metals and other chemicals.
icredible
my God these guys are so full of themselves .!!….yawn
What’s the music starting playing at9:44-11:34, the music name is ??thank you very march! Good Luck.
+幾米 music: Gary Liu, Veigar Margeirsson – Illuminatus
People are awesome!
holy fuck that road if they had a big stage race there like tour de france the back drop would
off the hook red bull get some kkind of super rad bike shit on this road! then you owe me a 6 pack.
The breaking point.
It’s awesome, exciting, thrilling, etc., etc. Agreed. But, you are putting yourself, and more importantly other people, in danger of accident or death. So, is it still worth it? (I’m aware that some of you might say ‘yes of course’ without even a second thought). Allright, but, should it still be allowed? Just my honest opinion, and something to think about, I think. Great jumping location, though.
As long as they dont endanger others, I see no reason why it shouldnt be allowed. Arguably in this case they did endanger others, but Im also pretty sure that that already is illegal. Any kind of flying close to third parties is almost always forbidden, doesnt matter if you are flying with a wingsuit or a hangglider or a sailplane.
i will be one of them
This makes me weak in the knees to watch.
Wow, Thought he was dead at 4:40 for sure!! Amazing stuff truly epic!
They are going down like Hawks! 😀
Great stuff. These guys aren’t athletes though, the term is always applied too liberally.
Shame they put loud music under the wake up and listening to nature moment, bit silly when someone is talking about the quiet morning wakeup.
can i join you guys?
Fast forward to (9:45) Yawn fest!
Can anyone tell me the Asian music’s artist please?
That is AMAZING! …I wish a could be there!
Does anyone know the name of the village they stayed in? I cant find the specific village… @2:20
Just a matter of time before they fuck up. Must be nice not to have a real job. And that is not flying it is dropping.
They are really crazy! They probably know about their own death.
what is the music theme at 4:15 ?
what a shit music. who would like to listen to that kind of crap when you diving???
It would be more fun to watch if they splatted!
They talk of the “danger” and yet we never see any.
So fucking boring…..
red bull advertising sucks!
12 minutes for a 1 minute clip holy crap
no fucking shit man…
Great video, but the music was over powering at points
Seriously what is the title of the music at 4:18??
استغفر الله واتوب اليه
6:22 what a spot.
Idiots. These people are immature attention-seeking brats.
What’s the music starting playing at 1:36?
It is awesome !!!
anybody knows it??
재밌겠다ㅋ언제 타보나 나는ㅋ
set up
bunch of rich mother fuckers …… must be nice
QUE CAGADA DE VIDEO
7:24 Weed
blablabla = gay
AWSOME job
They left their jobs, does this extreme sport make a money for them?
Maybe they are lottery winners.
+David Crandall
May be who knows. Otherwise I can’t understand, how to support their lifestile
It’s like a drug addiction. Adrenaline is addictive just like dopamine.
I know it. I was in Skydiving, but I couldn’t afford it without job. It was expensive hobby. How to buy food, parachutes, gasoline for plane, other stuff without job support?
fujimatosa ?
9:45 to cut past all the self-aggrandizing backpatting self adulation Bullshit. very reckless to fly like that with cable cares there. he could have killed innocent people…nothing to be proud of.
Those drivers your talking about are going to and from work….dropping the kids off at school and generally, materially contributing to society. They’re not tooling around the world doing nothing but jumping up and down like children screeching “Look at me, look at me!!!!” Maybe the problem is adrenaline junkies and their embarrassing-to-watch ego self-stroking for their “amazing” “extreme sports”. you fuckwit.
yeah…those drivers who kill other people with reckless driving..including running over kids are really contributing to society though. really. “They’re not tooling around the world doing nothing but jumping up and down like children screeching “Look at me, look at me!!!!” fair comment if you hate all sports. if like just one single sport however..you are a deluded fucking retard. because obviously all sports qualify for “looking at me”. and they are sponsored by red bull…so they are doing well. they aren`t bums who can`t take care of themselves. so long fuckdich
Peder Hansen, have you ever heard of clever editing to make it seem like those same people in that same cable car were being filmed and were celebrating and cheering them on, get a grip, it was a near accident as the guy had explained himself, Barbie is right and made a very valid point, and you have no justification for telling her to fuck off, instead..YOU fuck off…Mr fuckin-know-it-all-!!
Exactly what I was thinking. This “sport” is the new frontier of bullshit.
I also like the way you triggered Peder Hansen 😉
I like how he risks Life, how the pretty Asian people singing that ole Duke of Plazatorro ditty enjoyed the woosh of his passing, these are full-spirited souls who do not sniff their thumbs for the latest NSA ploy, like sullen no-gnad Youtoob Mom-Kentors.
three of the world’s most extreme athletes? meanwhile one is holding a cigarette …
Or is it a cigarette?
bored waiting, just an advert for these dropouts
Fluttering tail suggests too high angle of attack imho.
Unfortunately he has died on other jump 🙁
See the full movie
Just hope he didn’t take anyone out with him?
*Buddy, if you don’t know why your wing suit suddenly turns right all of a sudden, then you need more wingsuit flying lessons. This is obliviously staged.*
AzNightmare I don’t believe anyone would stage something like this (near miss) at all or even could. Those wind gusts are real. but there was a camera inside the cable car wasn’t there. hmmmm
+Maurice Gosby *But now you wonder, why would they even be flying that close to cable cars? Of all the places they could have flown, they decided to go relatively close to cable cars so should anything happen, like a mysterious “gust of wind”, something dangerously dramatic would occur? hmmmmmmmm*
+Maurice Gosby there are no wind gusts in that place due to the surrounding mountains
As amazing as it is to do a wing suit jump, calling a wing suit jumper a pilot is really a stretch.
I am a lorry pilot. I transport thousands of kilograms of vehicle and cargo while maneuvering a vehicle that requires, gear shifting a ten speed unsynchronozed transmission using the double clutch technique, responsible application of various engine and hydrolic brakes, monitoring pressures, all while negotiating perilous traffic at the M1.
That sounded like a stretch also. I am as much a pilot as the wing suit jumpers are.
Jealous people here…. Damn ! …. Get a grip on yourselves !
“I don’t know why the suit turned right, it just did” -I think a big issue with wing suiting is that because there’s no margin for error, there’s no potential to make mistakes and learn from them for the future. This is a big part of developing experience in most adventure sports; learning what can go wrong and how to counter it. In wing suiting pilots aren’t able to learn from their mistakes, because if they make mistakes they die. Please be careful folks.
Funny how they were filming from the gondola. Either a reckless, selfish dick. Or staged. But the gondola passengers didn’t look like they knew what informed consent was if they’d signed a waiver. Just dumb.
Any update as to why it occured???
wind ofc. what else could do it
Never fly faster than your guardian angel can fly
wow every humans dream flying
what a coincidence that there was a small group with Chines People inside the cable Car with 2 Cams on to the Outside and one on theme ….. Nice one*****
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Oh.. oh god it just hit that big rock.
Is that guy an organ donor, I want his testicles.
MrRodBruno i think he lost them at that gondola …. They probably stick to the frontside
bellends
So much hate for no fucking reason
that would have been great to see him crash into it?and then see the free fall to the ground.
jennycraig99 He would have died and the people would have at the very least been severely effed up ? why would you want that? ?
I wannabe a medi grn beret rullll bad bad bad
REST IN PEACE LUDO <3
Just go to 9:45….and yes, this stuff is thrilling, but ENTIRELY reckless and irresponsible to endanger other people. They should be charged with a crime.
Last 3 minutes of video excellent. Everything else waste of time !
John Gal You have to have the build up, man ?
perfect flying like eagle
thank you so much for sharing and I know it took a lot of sacrifice to get this.
these people are completely nuts
los hay mejores a billions … billions there are better …
Stop will the Bullshit … just Jump already !
i”m a base jumper and and it always brings me to tears when i Ludos woice because he’s no longer with us anymore
proxy art What happened, man. I’ve gone from really happy from watching the video, to sad from reading the comments section ?
pirla!
Good life experiences, not every can have.
gledao sam ovaj video kada je izasao, i sada sam se opet najezio dok je prolazio pored cablecar…
whats the Music from 9:45? 🙂
Improve employer connection barrel upper slowly bare.
wow.. be more careful in future jumps/ flights
i want to get into wingsuit flying so bad but other than skydiving dunno where to go
My Dream♥
Did anyone else notice how fast the narrator talks, in the beginning.
These guys are pretentious rich dicks.
Nothing spiritual or natural about what they are doing. Very dangerous recreation.
“What a nice cable car ride, right honey?” **BLAM!!** human brains and guts blow through the window
If you hit that cable care no one would have survived?
So you choose a thrill seeking activity not only at the risk of your own life but also at the risk of strangers?
when when you don’t die your primary emotion is that you survived. Not also that others did too?
Everyone commenting things like “this is suicide” and “what about the other people” and “this is so reckless and should be a crime” is just absolutely ridiculous. You might be passionate about things like drawing, work, people or whatever, you might not thrive off adrenaline and adventure. Base jumpers are passionate about this. This is not your life. These guys do thrive off the rush and excitement. This is amazing. Honestly breathtaking that science and engineering has gone far enough to fulfil the need that unfortunately very few individuals have now. That desperation for adrenaline and thrill. Flying gives a sense of freedom, even a sense of accomplishment that some people crave. Just because you people don’t feel a need for extreme thrills it doesn’t mean you get the right to condemn the ones that do. Please respect that we enjoy a sense of danger. Just because we are not like you, and value different things, it doesn’t mean you are “smarter” or more “moral” than us. Respect everyone, even if they don’t share the same opinion as you. This video is absolutely incredible boys, I hope to follow you one day.
If you want to do this as a hobby, that’s fine. More power to you. In fact, I quite enjoy the videos of a well-executed jump.
But I hope you never recklessly endanger the lives of other people, even if you warned them beforehand that spectating from the sidelines might not be without risks. Odds are, they don’t fully understand just how much risk there is.
Or worse still, never endangered anyone who wasn’t even aware of what was going on, until wingsuit guys come tearing past at whatever speeds these things can manage. That’s my only issue here.
I understand that, but I do think these guys are professionals and know what they’re doing. Yes, I agree that they shouldn’t have gone so close to the cable cars, but as they said earlier in the video, they had to pull some strings to get there. I personally think that they would’ve been told to only follow that path, which isn’t their fault. To be honest at usual base jumping spots people know what is happening, and are often told before-hand. But yeah, your point is valid, I just hate people slamming these guys for doing what they love.
I love BASE, but this was a little too sketchy. If you want to pull off a sketchy jump that will only injure yourself, go for it, but don’t endanger others.
add another to the hope i die list…
Three amazing people on an equally amazing journey. Best wishes and many safe returns.
Superman comes to live
Anyone knows the music starting from 4:18? Have been looking for a year…
So, basically, he should get arrested for endangering the lives of those people in the gondola.
Awesome place !
can you stay in that village in the mountains?
jump from eiffel tower in paris when the french police is busy with buguet and stinky cheese and upon landing call uber.
Who else just skipped to the end
This reminds me of Harry Potter, anyone else lol?
8:27 There’s also a fine line between stupid and uhh.. clever.
Get to the fucking point
That dodge was the most badass thing ever
I’m gona try this one day..believe me
this guys a fckin brave. :p
where is the second episode?
I learned at NASA that ground effect is only a yard high. If a person can invent a wing that can lift above one yard, the person can have vertical flight. Vertical flight is true flight. Gliding is not flight by scientific definition. A Perfect Gliding is truly what you are accomplishing so wonderfully. Of course you and I know, you are not lying, nor flying. Your intention was to entertain the passengers not to cause a tragedy. Your direction follows your focus. That was truly an amazing show of skill. And just seeing how elated those kids were, was well worth it. I myself laughed when I saw and heard them exclaimed “Awesome!”You people are light-hearted and smart, that is why gravity is nice to you. Adrenaline is self-addictive. We know. We will always have you in our prayers, that you keep entertaining us, and yourselves, until you are too old to base jump the first storey window of your nursing homes. Don’t die young. We need people like you.Much love, Retired Goddard Engineer.
My kinda role model…intrinsically.
Not so sure ‘The Perfect Flight’ is the best name for this video guys.
Such a beautiful place
omg who mixed the audio for this, cant hear anything over the “background” music
What’s witht the pan pipes?
fucking idiot.
I call bullshit….he just did a planned fly by
Falling from the sky is unnatural for humans. Why not spend time, energy, and money solving real problems and learn to solve more problems?
Fuck these people for risking the lives of the people in the Gondola .. Passion my ass .. and screw the officials who let these douchebags jump in the first place .. Next time take your freaking passion somewhere else and try to jump in Mars ..
Wow!! That’s my dream!!
The most idiotic sport ever! *ALL* of them die sooner or later.. All the bullshit about them getting rush won’t work here.
This is overall a really good production with interesting speaks and conversations. However, you guys need to work on balancing the volumes of voice over and underlying music. I almost can’t hear what the voice over says at 7:00 for example. Apart from that, super cool!
Video reminded me of “This is Spinal Tap”.
Worst video EVER! I don’t care for who they are. Just bloody jump already!!!!!!
So they jump off a cliff following the line of a ‘chair lift’. WTF are they doing anywhere near that thing? Irresponsible.
RIP LUDO 🙁
That was the jump plan dumbass
How can i join you?
Turn down the damn flute. Holy hell.
The guy should be tried for reckless endangerment.
The people in the gondola could have died because of this idiot.
The perfect flight is on 11: 45
I wanna try it
How do they land
It’s beautiful ? ?
Great video.
Dumbass…putting peoples life at risk
Wow 1:14 between theee mountain
Man I’m not even there but my adrenalin rush just seeing him going toward the cable car, thank God his ok.
One of these day, the ultimate tickets will arrive!!!!
“pilot” lol
I do not understand I can understand how you want to do your sport I do not understand why you think you have the right to put those people in danger the skiers on the ground the people in cable cars when it comes to other humans and their lives you need to stay the hell away from them a****** take your f****** wingsuit and go play alone away from people that you’re going to f****** get killed I don’t want your ass flying by me and hitting my wife or my kid and if you do hit my kid or my wife or me and I live I promise you I promise if you live you will thank God every day for the rest of your life if you live
Bla bla bla bla bla…….nobody cares
You got what is call BALL.
white people smdh
am i the only one thinking Avatar while watching this?
whould have splattered like a bug on a car windsheild
this makes me sad…i dont think i will ever be able to do this in my life time 🙁
That would have been the end of his
Athlete’s ???
*Any Chinese please.. The name of the village?*
did they mention in the video?
Have never been there, don’t know. But looks beautiful, i am going to find it out and visit
عمر فايد – Omer Faied have you found out the name of the village. I’d really love to visit there! Thanks
Turn the dam music down cant hear the voices
So why would you jump in an area where you are a menace to life and death??????????
He said ” I choose it….”
And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
So clearly you didn’t pass on that time because it wasn’t your appointed time, but when you do – where will you go?
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
– That’s the verse referenced by In-N-Out out on the drink cups – Believe in Jesus and have eternal life! (:
what is the name of this village please someone ?
Hi there, I’m making a new series for channel five in the U.K called Extreme Flights. We are looking at all manner of flights, from jumbo’s to men in winged suits jumping off cliffs. I just watched The Perfect Flight. I’d love to be abler to feature the Tianmen Mountain footage and talk to Yoki & Espon. Drop me a line. chris.mcmillan@terntv.com
He was trying to show of….so the people on the Gondola see how bad ass he is…and he almost killed some innocent people
RIP Ludovic Woerth
Oh by the way.. the video of the guy who jumped into the water off the mountain no chute.. that landing was fake
poster encourage heaven cechg vegetable increase rape injury happy soccer.
Great suits.love it.but believe it or not.i flew on the back of a man that had no suit at all when I was 6. It was great. I bet great for you too.
Interesting how all through the show…Leading up to the jump Jokke had a bad feeling..
Even more interesting is how a double camera man crew just so happened to be in that cable car..
One focused on his incoming flight path…The other on a group of young Chinese kids who would give a dramatic response as he passed..
What a coincidence huh…lmfaoooo..
Great production guys..
The dramatic presence and plot structure is awesome..
Also big up to Jokke on the stunt..
Timed it perfect..
wowwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cameramen died (not this day), feel sad for him.
fuck… it prohibited??? well i guess im gonna have to break the law and do it ninja style.
Could you have cut or even lowered the damn music when people were talking??? Totally overshadowed these soft-spoken men and it was quite irritating.
Its worse than eating shit on a motorcycle
Hell the wind blowing that bad and your still even discussing going flying. No wonder so many people are getting killed. The mountains arent going away fellas no need to rush the most dangerous sport there is.
RIP Ludo
You know, this footage is astounding, you don’t need a pretentious voice over and apocalypse music. Just show the footage.
25% fatality rate = 1 out of 4 eat it.
His own words will pronounce his judgement.
Have fun.
Bla Bla Bla I dont give a crap about who does the flying, they are just next ones up for a tomb stone
