"World's First SkiBASE of the Matterhorn" - Super Frenchie Diaries with Matthias Giraud ep #4 on WIDSIX TV

Matthias Giraud is THE FIRST person IN THE WORLD to skiBASE the Matterhorn. Captured by several GoPros and other Cameras, Super Frenchie's jump come very close to ending in disaster when his ski hits a rock and he is forced to throw a GIANT front flip off the peak to avoid death.

Watch this edit and you'll never look at a skinny french dude the same way again... you might be looking at the skinny french dude that did THIS!

Matterhorn Facts:

Elevation: 14,692 feet (4,478 meters)

Location: Valais Alps. Also called Penninie Alps. Border of Switzerland and Italy.

"I was born by the sea, and up to the age of twelve I had never been outside my native Province; and yet, without being aware of it, I knew the Matterhorn. I did not know it by name, but I knew it. When, by chance, someone in my family uttered the word 'peak', and my small child's imagination created the corresponding picture, I saw a pyramid, beautiful as an arrow of stone, pointing towards the sky." ~ Gaston Rébuffat

  • Good to see you staying at it Super!!! Corey-Mercury

  • @beandumper No shit, read the description...

  • holy crap. would have been impressive if he made it all the way but still, just walking by the edge is nuts

  • 2:04

    

  • @GEETEECHEEZE- I think nature was like, "fucking rad dude, check out this awesome ski I got for free! If I wait long enough someone else will lose one too and then I can shred!" That's how nature feels about it....

  • @ophir909- Do you actually know anything about him other than this video? Stupid also includes armchair quarterbacking youtube videos when you likely don't have a clue about BASE or the guy. Sometimes people make mistakes, sometimes shit happens. He said he was lucky on that one or did you not watch the whole thing? Go back to holding at 22,000, it looks hardcore.....

  • it be cooler if he died like my mom did 3 years ago while cliffdiving

  • i don't think he decided to go into a front flip. him hitting the rock caused him to front flip. anyway, redic stuff and super cool.

  • BRB - gotta' change my shorts!
