This has motivated me to become more adventurous in life & simply 'go for it'. I now eat white rice instead of brown rice and I have you to thank for it. Take risks!
Hey luke, I'm a 17 year old paraglider and can't wait to start sky diving when I turn 18! Ur videos are awesome. I love how u say "if it is a dream I hope we never wake up". Why should people only fly in dreams, when it can be a reality. I want to actually live, ur videos are inspirational!! Keep it up
Haha, awesome Lojik! Really appreciate the kind words, as always :) :). Hope everything had been coming along well for you and that you're having a blast!! Glad you liked the video and thanks so much for the nice words!
Hey Luke. I'm going Wingsuit shopping tomorrow. I'm so exited I can't sleep lol! Thank you so much for all your video's. You guy's have brought me back from a very dark place in my life. Now I'm flying free thanks to you oxox
That's great about the wingsuit, Natahlia, and thanks so much for the nice words :). Glad to know we were able to inspire you some! Share videos/pics when you get your wingsuit!
I have been sitting here for the last couple hours sorting through hundreds of messages, emails, comments, tweets, & various notifications. Truly humbled & taken aback by all the responses I am getting from each of you! Can't tell you how much I appreciate it; but they're incredibly inspiring to me; thank you all =). I'm trying to keep up with the awesome messages, but if I don't reply, please know I am smiling ear to ear, and reading everything! Please keep them coming!
Thanks Brian, glad you liked it so much! haha, nope, not surprised to be alive at all--constantly surprised by how amazing it feels no matter how many great jumps and trips I make :). You'd think the emotions would subside, but they still haven't yet!
Thanks for the message Lucas, and glad you liked the LD3! Lucid Dreams 2 is full of a lot of great memories for me, so I still like it, and appreciate you telling me it's your favorite :).
Thanks Phil! It's an amazing sport. I think it just takes perpetual passion & love 4 what you do for you, rather than 4 others, & that sincerity is sensed by others. You're right, there's a ton of talent at Skydive Dallas; a lot of incredible flyers that have moved on to do big things for the sport!. I can see you're excited to fly--my advice: get started with skydiving, & focus on learning and having fun! The other details will naturally come out in due time :). Most of all--smile big!
Hey Natahlia, thanks so much for the nice message :). Very cool to hear it makes you feel that way! haha, I will tell him! You bet, thanks again for watching, and the nice comment, always nice to know when people are enjoying our videos the way we do ;).
That video evoked a lot of powerful emotions in just 9:00 minutes. Just like you did with LD2, you took it all to a whole new level. Once again, it was an incredible experience to vicariously be a part of your guys' journey.
That move and all other lines were simply amazing! I always watch videos like this with big pleasure. Your skills are really incredible. Wish You many great lines and please stay safe. Greetings from Poland :)
Hi Mike, that's very cool to hear about your dreams as a kid. I'm glad you saw the documentary and now know what you need to work towards :). 3 years will come quick--excited for you! Thanks for the nice message and subscribing! Keep in touch as your first jump gets closer!
Thank you from all of us Thomas--much appreciated! We're actually flying Intrudair's "Ultimate" tracking suit :). You definitely need to make it to Switzerland, beautiful country, great people and incredible exit points all over!
I wasn't expecting Rami to leave first at all! I can definitely picture it building. They had plenty of time too. The whole video was good. After I did my Cat A and Cat B in 2006 all I could think about was tracking and how cool it must feel. I ended up in the hospital after my Cat B due to a number of reasons so I had lots of free time to watch videos. I am starting my AFF over again in the spring due to money. I am going to search for that rodeo. I'm sure it's still out there somewhere.
You bet, thank you for the nice words--very happy you enjoyed it so much! So... Time to take action and pursue your dreams ;). Don't wait, trust me, you'll kick yourself if you do!
Sorry to hear you're disappointed Steve. These were definitely a lot of different jumps, it's actually 100% new footage and a lot of different exit points ;). Either way, glad you liked the edit.
Thanks Flylikeaneagle33 :). Yep, that is a line just after the Jungfrau exit. I'm sure others have flown that line but it's much further and higher than the grass most fly over from Jungfrau, and I haven't been able to find any video of others. I'm sure it's out there, but haven't ran across it yet, but since I haven't I've been calling it the Jungfrau High Line. Was one of the most exciting jumps of my life--glad you liked it!
Very cool, thanks for the comment Bruce and welcome! Sounds like you're already having a great time--keep having fun and let me know how that P3 flies!
I have a 3 year plan set-up, get 100 jumps by the end of years, BASE training next year, reach 200 and get wingsuit training, build experience on both, and in 2016 buy a ticket to Europe :) it's feasible!!! Love your video!!!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! iv'e been waiting for this. Probably the best thing i have ever seen, inspirational stuff, its videos like this that make me want to pursue my dreams. Thanks Luke, you're the Best
Wow, i have so much respect from you guys, this is just one of the greatest things you can do in life :) I live somewhere near Walenstadt, when I'm there I always look up and think about how awesome it would have to be to just jump off that mountain and fly down
Thanks so much--flattered to hear it, there are a lot of great videos out there! Yeah, I was a bit too close to that part of the rock that was sticking out, so I pulled an arm in ;).
Hi all, just wanted to share a post for all of your recent comments on Lucid Dreams 3 and my other videos... Thanks so much for the nice words and feedback. Unfortunately with RUclips's recent integration with Google+, I am not able to reply to everyone's comments. Not sure why this is the case, but it's annoying! Either way, keep them coming and I'll reply when it lets me. I believe I can reply when you "share" your comment on your google+ account. To do this, I think you have to link your google+ account to RUclips account. If I don't reply tho, know that I read every comment and greatly appreciate your feedback and encouragement! The incredibly positive feedback on my films is very inspirational--thanks to all of you!
wish u guys would stop posting material like this,my last jump was in 78 ,this shit is really addicting me,have 2 find a way 2 start again ,untill then fly 4 me
Absolutely amazing and one of the best videos ever, pure adrenalin love it! No words to describe how it must feel to fly like that and in such paradise! Keep up the good work champ!
Really nice vid! One of the best I've seen. Heading to Europe next summer for more WSB fun! Thanks for the entertainment while I'm waiting for June 2014 to roll around!
Awesome, thanks man! Yeah, getting close, I remember the days counting down to my first jump :). It's a long journey, but eye opening! Live it up and please share your stories with me!
I want to be healthy and happy, but flying is my biggest dream since I was kid. One year ago I made my first tandem skydive. I am going to jump in tandem again and probably I will try to make AFF course. I'm afraid that money won't let me fulfill my dream to put on wingsuit and fly like a bird, but who knows :) Meet You at an exit point could be simply amazing :)
Hi Scorpian, you're correct that they are designed to open much faster--faster than a skydiving reserve parachute actually... However, BASE jumpers only jump with one parachute, so many consider that our reserve canopy and we pack it as such. Thanks for the interest!
If there was ever a trophy with a pair of balls on it..would be more than happy to award you guys/gals with it on stage.. Wish you nothing but safety in future jumps.
Yo Luke! Coming up on jump 200 and got a phantom 3 on order! I might never base jump, I might never proximity fly, but I've joined you in the sky! You guys who say you want to do it, no matter where that road takes you, it's amazing!
Hi Luke, As usual I am in awe of what you guys do! When I see you during flight if feel freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! Tell Brad he better watch out for those birds, and I don't mean the human kind lol! Thanks again for sharing your amazing moments ;-)
Thanks Ben, glad you liked it! at 1:38 I am wearing an "Ultimate" tracking suit, made by Intrudair, the clip immediately after, at 1:39 is not with a tracking suit though, it is a different jump. On that one we were flying our X Bird wingsuits :).
Hey pennertimberlin, that's great about the Ultimate, glad you like it! I'll try to get one of those uploaded when I have time :). Glad you liked the video, thanks for the comment and watching!
Hi Jim, learning 2 fly a wingsuit begins w/ skydiving. The suggested MIN. is to make 200 skydives be 4 putting on a small, beginner wingsuit (easier to fly). As skill progresses, 1 can upsize 2 bigger wings, but this takes time & depends on individual progression. Incorporating it into BASE jumping is also a dedicated process that will come after years of skydiving & BASE w/out a WS as the jumper's skill progresses. In short, start with skydiving, the rest will make sense in due time. Good luck!
Hey Fabian, thanks for the nice message! I'm jealous of you living near Walenstadt--such a beautiful area! You should look into finding a place to learn to skydive, near you, so you can start working towards flying in Walenstadt :)
Olha o voo desses caras, é impressionante a velocidade e o visual.....Viva o esporte radical!!!!!!! Eu me amarro........Liberdade.............Vida longa!!!!!!!!!
Love how this just randomly popped up in my RUclips algorithm. Miss you brother!
Ha, that's great! Miss you bro--hope you're great over there :).
I'm pretty convinced proximal suit flying is the final frontier of human awesomeness.
haha, agreed, thanks Ben :)
Go full screen, turn the volume and enjoy the ride! never get bored of watching this. Thank you for sharing Luke et al!
This has motivated me to become more adventurous in life & simply 'go for it'. I now eat white rice instead of brown rice and I have you to thank for it. Take risks!
I actually spilled saliva from laughing of you comment. hauhauhauhauhauhauhauhauha
Hahahahaaaaaa 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You have inspired me

Awesome Video! Congrats Luke Hively & the Dallas Base Crew! The Dam spot @ 2:15 is nuts! Love the time lapse snails!
Thanks John! Lucid Dreams 3 was shot in various places in Switzerland--absolutely beautiful country. If you haven't been, I strongly recommend it!
Hi Chris, thanks so much, glad you liked it. That was a super fun jump :). We flew that line from the Eiger Mushroom.
The Soul Flyers are incredibly talented; agreed they are worth watching!
Luke you and the Dallas boys have equaled the Europeans wingsuiting ,tracking and base jumping.Your video quality is 2nd to none .
Thanks man!
That video evoked a lot of powerful emotions in just 9:00 minutes. Just like you did with LD2, you took it all to a whole new level. Once again, it was an incredible experience to vicariously be a part of your guys' journey.

Beautiful scenery, great photography, awesome people, fitting music...Epic video (gave me goosebumps) nice job Luke :-)
Thank you from all of us Thomas--much appreciated! We're actually flying Intrudair's "Ultimate" tracking suit :). You definitely need to make it to Switzerland, beautiful country, great people and incredible exit points all over!
Thanks again Chris! I will definitely be posting some entire lines when I finish up on some other projects :). Appreciate you--blue skies!

Agreed :)
Skydiving is just soooo much fun to start with, there is really no rush !
Oh..and by the way... AMAZING flying skills & footage !!
Sorry to hear you're disappointed Steve. These were definitely a lot of different jumps, it's actually 100% new footage and a lot of different exit points ;). Either way, glad you liked the edit.

"... where the reward outweighs the risk" :)
Very cool, thanks for the comment Bruce and welcome! Sounds like you're already having a great time--keep having fun and let me know how that P3 flies!
completely agree Alex--can't wait for him to be here in the states!
Awesome! I'd love to see that entire line in a video on it's own :) Keep up the inspirational stuff. Blue skies.

Thanks Mel, glad to hear it :). It's a good one to start with!
Thanks vanPoll :). Appreciate the like and share--glad you liked it!

Awesome control through the turbulence. I've felt it in the controls of an aircraft and under canopy but never in body flight. That looked intense.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!! iv'e been waiting for this. Probably the best thing i have ever seen, inspirational stuff, its videos like this that make me want to pursue my dreams. Thanks Luke, you're the Best
You lucky buggers! Amazing footage and editing. Great work guys.
That was some amazing footage. I so wanna try it. Thanks for sharing.
Perfect, my plan is coming together ;). Thanks Ivan, glad you enjoyed!
Just WOW! If I can gather the courage I might one day do it. Imagine how awesome gliding over such landscapes!?!??
It's a lot of fun for sure! Skydiving is the first step, whenever you're ready. Have fun and don't good luck!
Thanks Luke ˆˆ
I wish I had the time, money, and balls to do that, but I appreciate getting to experience some of the thrill through you videos.
Haha, well, u can make the time and money for it! Thanks ;)
Cheers buddy, very much appreciated :). Yep, definitely agree, it's just as much fun, in its own way!
Thanks Abhee Ray! Yep, any risk is worth it if it's outweighed by the reward :). I'm glad you enjoyed it :).
This is amazing. Wow, never heard of wingsuiting but this is wonderful and really beautiful.

Thanks, we're having a blast!
I don't understand. This is the best video out. Should be like at 1 million. ??
Haha, thanks buddy! Maybe one day... Or perhaps Livn 3 will make it happen!
Awesome to hear, thanks Drew!
Olha o voo desses caras, é impressionante a velocidade e o visual.....Viva o esporte radical!!!!!!! Eu me amarro........Liberdade.............Vida longa!!!!!!!!!
Great stuff. Take it Easy Ladies & Gentlemen.
Awesome video! All action! Great job!
Great flying/footage
what a life man…living the dream
blue sky
I liked and added to favorite videos before I watch the video because I know it's going to be good.
Davvero belle immagini mozzafiato!!! Che dire ragazzi..complimenti! :-))
impresionantes imagenes, la velocidad que tienen que coger en la caida libre y la destreza para volar
Just watched this badass video for like the 20th time. So great to see it is generating such an amazing response!
Awesome, thanks bro! Just uploaded a new one for release in a couple days :)
Whoa, awesome, thanks for sharing! Yeah, I suggest you take in as much of Rami's flying as you can, he's very inspiring to watch :).
