Edgar Kraus, this film director, died on 27th December 2006, 2 months after uploding video. He lost his life while filming base jumping in Italy. Now he is flying with angels
All my honor and respect for this courageous people who basejumps! I would parachute from airplanes 1 million times, but would never jump from any bridge, tower or cliffs... You are really different and special.
Sweaty palms, stomache in throat, my mind zooming quadrupled wif a slowed sense of perception "one-ing" it like Neo from the matrix - yeah, this is a good look for freefalling and some moar should be made like dis.
eh. too pretty sounding for base jumping IMO. it is a beautiful thing, but this glorifies it a bit too much. these arent role models. this is base jumping - an injury oriented sport. the danger aspect should always be present. incidentally, watch a base jumping video to robot rock - daft punk. them shits is the best
@massman110 Ya search Wingsuit Base Jumping! Its a great video, 3 minutes 45 seconds long and the pic of it has a man in a red coat, it shows people using wing suits to fly along side the cliffs
@HokieFanatic1 i wish i could do that.... 2:00 one of the coolest things bout base jump but itgs too risky, the chances of critical injury are about 30%
i have seen a lots of videos of base jumps and skydive and i think is amazing but after all it wouldnt be the same see videos than the felling of free falling good video =)
You people are amazing . You are more alive than 99 % of the population . Most of us spend our lives with our heads stuck in the sand . Wind suit jumping looks to be the most fantastic thrill . Good luck and thanks for posting these . They let the rest of know what life is . Don't worry about the trolls ; they will get bored and go away . Best
@Black7Cloud There is a difference between quality of life and length of life. When you take control of your fears and pursue your most amazing dreams, you can experience more fulfillment in a matter of seconds than most people experience in an entire lifetime. It's about realizing that we are all going to die anyway and making your life as incredible as you possibly can. No missed opportunities; no regrets.
@tree6014 I make my life incredible in a thousands of other ways. I do not need to jump off buildings to experience that feeling. It's simply ignorant to say you're living a 'better' life than those who haven't jumped from buildings and lived. It's just an opinion. For me, base jumping is like a drug. It gives you a nice feeling, but It's dangerous and unnecessary.
@Black7Cloud I never said I live a better life than you. BASE jumping is certainly not the only way to feel fulfilled. I intended my comment to be somewhat general; although, it was worded somewhat with respect to what I experience. Regardless of what you do in life, it's important to not let fear hold you back. Different people have different gifts. The important thing is to find what you enjoy in life and do it. When people give in to fear and keep delaying their dreams, they never happen.
I probably will never do that as I'm just too scared of the risk. But I'm skydiving and I think I can imagine what it must feels like. And I can understand that there are people like feral187.
But reading the incidents board is such a sad thing to do.

"never to BASE"? English please?
I have 40 whole BASE jumps. I am super extreme.
I jump an old Stunts velcro rig with a Mojo. All my jumps are off the potato or the green machine. I once did a backflip! It was cool, I was like, now some Idaho poontang sluts will give it up to me at the Outback Steakhouse.
It's just falling-stop acting like you are seeing into the 5th dimension whenever you make a BASE jump. Jesus Christ.
Get back in your VW bus, I hear Phish is doing a reunion tour.
dude's got a big problem obviuosly. I honestly think it would be close to euphoric jumping like that! You obviously have issues which stop you from seeing that. even if i did it once it would be amazing, hell if i could afford it i'd do it all the time, why the hell not. You're a dick!
You didn't answer my previous question, which i have no interest in the answer and I didn't spell it wrong because that is how i like to spell it. Anyway you've changed the subject completely and i won't be responding to you're comments.
The first time I heard about Base -jumping was watching THAT video 5 years ago or something. Since then, I am amazed with that beautiful stuff! I really like flying but that's too much!!!! :) Very nice video!
that u wrote "....you might expect base jumpers to be die hard...." that is not true....u can't say that things because u don't know nothing about base jumping .... 4 doing that u must be were come person and know your body, mind .... and so on ...
that is not DIE HARD waaa i'm so QL jeeeee...
u'r doing that because u love your life and u want do live and enjoy your life....
amazing, one of the best videos about base jumping that i ever seen. the feeling of freedom and peace at his maximum expression combine with the connection of nature
this is just incredible, it is my dream in life to do this i just have to get my skydive count up, this cinematographer is probs one of the best, nice work guys
At the video, you may see that they have to take the "delta" position, just after leaving the rock. This is only to experienced skydivers. That "delta" position makes the body fly away from the rocks. To open the parachute near the rock is very dangerous...
Rest in peace Edgar Kraus and all other BASE jumpers who have died doing what they love!
