    Espen Fadnes has always dreamt of flying under the bridge of the Aiguille du Midi, 3,842 meters above Chamonix. Can he and his team pull it off without a hitch?
    In this episode, the three BASE jumpers Jokke Sommer, Espen Fadnes and Ludovic Woerth head to Chamonix, France where they will attempt a world first - a dangerous wingsuit fly-through under the bridge on top of the breathtaking Aiguille du Midi.

    Seriously hard core. I can imagine these guys all sitting together many years in the future, reminiscing about the stunning times they had and no regrets about ever wasting their lives. These guys are riding high and control their fear exceptionally well. Massive respect!

    Dell, paragliders are great too, but this is something else..... This is the summit of human flying, for sure. Apart from the suit, no tools, engine or whatever, to keep you up there. And one has to use one's body to steer, find lift or descent, etc. MAGIC!
    I love it......
