- A guide on how to become a base jumper in 60days
National Geographic: Adventure Wanted: The Eiger Base Jump
All the challenges Joby Ogwyn undertook were just warm-ups for his ultimate challenge: a BASE jump off the Eiger in Switzerland. Discover how to become a BASE Jumper.
Personal note:
I see this more as an infotainment show but it gives you a small idea on what it takes. Individual elements of courses can be booked however there is no full on Rooky to Base Jumper course that I am aware of. If you know of one post link below :-)
3..2..1.. See YA!
Calls himself a badass mountaineer, takes a heli up instead of hiking the Eiger 😂😂😂
He is friends with Jeb Colorless, what more could you expect😂😂
Probably just time restraints for the show and/or an excuse for some aerial shots. Also, just because you can doesn't mean you have to.
@@KnjazNazrath time restraints? it takes under two hours hike to get up there
@@idanghelber8282 but why would you if you could just get up there by helicopter quicker. like you said it takes two hours hes climbed Mt.everest he can do a small 2 hour hike. this has to be one of the dumbest comments ive ever seen.
I remember watching this before I started BASE. Now I watched like 30 seconds of it and thought "what an asshole" hahaha
WOW! As an avid skydive instructor and former BASE jumper, I thought reading the title, that this was the most irresponsible thing I had ever read. However, having an open mind and watching it, I have to say that this is the best representation of how to go about learning BASE in the safest way! In the beginning, there is a little miss-information. This is normal for someone who doesn't know skydiving. Then to fallow your reactions and emotions, it brought back great memories of my learning experience. "I have never been scared like that" is exactly the words I would use to describe my first BASE jump. This Documentary is a GREAT representation of going from inexperience to an educated jumper! I feel the one missing part is to inform people just how much time and money were spent on the learning process, because both were EXTENSIVE!!! Those of you making uneducated comments should really go educate yourself because you just make yourself look foolish. As for wing-suit and proximity flying, he was using a beginner suit but was not educated enough in those to have done them. I think this was a very responsible approach to this topic. Joby, welcome to a new world, I hope you have been enjoying it. Don't forget the beer.
What does the skill of skydiving bring to base jumping, or wingsuit flying? I have never done any of these activities. I know they all use parachutes. I have done one tandem paraglider flight. That was ace!
Harry Bean, think of BASE as racing at Indy, or bull riding. Sure you can jump right in and do it but your chances greatly improved if you first know how to drive a car, or ride a horse. That is what skydiving is to BASE jumping
yeah i agree...u have to get to know the aerodynamics...how to react in bumpy situations..dang..
Canopy control, stable body position, knowledge of the gear, packing skills...
Is BASE jumping scary
120 jumps in 5 weeks!? lucky bastard
Money...
my brother only had one...
@@jenslukaslundkoustrup3193 sorry to hear that
@@jenslukaslundkoustrup3193 Couldn't afford more? Cheap bastard
Pretty impressed that Joel Olsteen was able to become a base jumper in 60 days.
LMBO!

How to become a base jumper in 60 days?... Have National Geographic fund it apparently
I would think it takes some balls as well. Most people don't skydive and most skydivers would never jump off a cliff/mountain. It takes a different sort of animal to do this regardless of who is paying the bills

After seeing so many videos of amazing base jumpers making the sport look so easy and fun, it's awesome to see a video like this that really puts it into perspective.
There's not enough videos on BASE jumping I've literally watched every single one
Even the tributes
Make your own, that's what I did :)
That was an incredibly entertaining, exciting and insightful video. Hats off to those three for the success they've worked so hard to attain. Great documentary.
the best turorial there is on youtube, if anyone wants to get into this sport. respect
I can't imagine the wall of fear, standing on the edge. Every instinct we've gained the past couple million years to NOT throw yourself off a cliff has to get ignored. Crazy. I'd love to try
Yeah I completely agree... and that is the crazy fear I face in 6 weeks for the first time
Absolutle amazing documentary. In fact i never leave any comments, this time i couldnt hold myslef.
It is just right on time while struggling with direction, dreaming about base jumping, this guy refilled my plans with inspiration!
same
I love Skydiving ❤
Just remember after watching this that Joby had the best training available in the world. Some people should NOT be base jumping even with 200 skydives. Watch this video and enjoy his adventure. YOU WILL MOST LIKELY NOT GET THE SAME RESULTS OR YOU MAY EVEN DIE...
Nice one James! Bridge time maybe!? :D -Kevin, Big sky
I'm not sure he mastered the canopy skills enough.
great show, I learned that there is no relative wind when you jump from a balloon. plus he makes the whole thing look easy by doin it in 60 days. fair play, blue skies man
That makes me feel bad when the guy says when he was young his parents were told by his teacher that he was a dreamer and that was a bad thing. I have always taught my child, there is noting you cannot do. I remember being told what i was not allowed to do, but never, what I could do.
We always need to let our children know that they can do whatever they put there mind to and want to do. The support from a parent or parents, are more beneficial than any other thing a child could ever have.
Awesome video of this guy recording his journey from a normal person, to an extreme athlete you read about or see pictures of.
What a inspiring video. Thanks bro for sharing your experience with the rest of us just watching and dreaming.
34:26 lmao “you have to perform, because if you don’t.. youre dead”
very touching. Let no one destroy your dreams.
Anders Axelsen ok if he had the jumps before... I bet he had 100 or 150 maybe 300 before the video if someone can afford this training why judge ??
That first AFF jump landing was good, I remember my first ever landing, I was like a tumbleweed!
Very informative, along with quite the transformation in such a short period--nice job Joby.
Wish I’d had great instruction like that when I started skydiving. The standup landings were impressive.
Loved it. Very inspiring. Maybe I'll get a chance to do some BASE yet.
Surprised by some of the negative comments by the elitists.
Who are you people who want to restrict it and make it harder for people to acheive their dreams?
Suddenly you're an accomplished skydiver but with the attitude of those who who once upon a time, said people shouldn't skydive AT ALL.
If it's my life, my choice. If I die, why is it 'your' problem? Let's all go back to 'prohibition' - yay!?!
best basejumping dokumentary on youtube
That last slider up opening looked pretty hard. I’m sure he felt that for a few days.
Awesome. At 41:45 it looks almost like a slider down jump.. he needs a new packer lol that was a hard opening
Whiplash baby
Congratulations on your jumps. Looking forward to getting into Skydiving and BASE myself.
Have you?
Yes, it is about $ 2500 to get to the A licence. Then you can rent the gear for around $65-80 / day ( like at Perris Valley Skydive). Jumps are around $ 22 / jump. So a day of skdiving, like 6 jumps, would cost around $ 215. Add gas and food plus around $ 50 if you want a packer to pack for you. Under $ 300 per day. Much less for wind tunnel training and it's very worth it.
Is this guy on the base fatality list yet?
Taking short cuts to base jumping is a solid plan to get on the list.
Ohhhh my God!!!
Everything I have dreamed in my life in 1 video.Congratulation!
Just: AMAZING!!
I have watched one video where Jokke Sommer said he is afraid of heights, and he is one of the best ( my favorite ).
This is what I have been looking for, my dream is to BASE jump wearing a squirrel suit in Switzerland and this has given me so much to look foreword to! I can't wait to join a brotherhood of few who are driven by passion for truly living LIFE!!!!!
Can't tell if he looks like R.A. Dickey or Bill Nye the Science Guy
Tis is my dream, i hope i do this some day! Amazingg
He trained 30mis in wind tunnel? Wwow... that costs a load of money!!!! :DD
30 minute block of time in the tunnel is $500 plus another $100 for the coaching
A decent amount of money, but not too bad, especially if the show is paying for it
that was really great , i think i should add base jumping to my to DO list :)
Awesome video...nice to see someone's journey into the world of base jumping !
Helps you picture the emotional journey as well...
I know I'll go for it one day, but even though I have 100+ skydives..I don't feel ready yet :)
I'll keep on jumping out of perfectly good airplanes until the moment is right !
you base jumpin yet amigo?
@@ImJeffRoe haha I love that you checked-in on a 10 year old comment :D
I didn't go through with base jumping... but I did quit my corporate career and became a wind tunnel instructor 6 years ago, skydiving LO and event organiser ;-)
@@shaun919 hell yeah, what tunnel you work at ?
Awesome video. I don't know much about parachutes but those openings seemed hard! You can even hear him grunt.
Yea this sport will make you get a bit choked up sometimes. Lots of chemicals and bonding with the best people and, unfortunately, losing some friends. Took 5 years, including more skydiving and BASE in the last year; I lost a friend that was just a state away. The day I found out was shocking and I wasn’t feeling real bad. The next day I was a crying baby for HOURS from the moment I woke up. It sucked! Getting choked up just thinking about it. I’m a skydiving instructor that looks for BASE jumps when I’m free. Gonna try to jump a huge antenna tomorrow.
Absolutely incredible Video, Ive been looking for something along the lines of this for a very long time, To kind of show me the road Im going to have to travel to become a certified skydiver and possibly earn my wingsuit one day. Cheers to you for sharing.
It would have been better if on the Perrine Bridge he would have said "Well that sounds easy, then why is my heart pounding so fast? The only thought on my mind is what on span am I doing?"
Jumping lower is actually more dangerous... less time for your parachute to open. Less time to deal with any malfunction.
Jeez, you´re pretty smart ...
Wow thanks I thought the lower I got the more time I'd have til earth..
it"s good to have National Geografic as your sponsor !! amazing movie !!
Here’s a budget edition documentary how to become a BASE jumper ruclips.net/video/5pW2zNeEAUE/видео.html
thanks for sharing!
You conquered Fear man. God bless You!! Great video
42:45 ... right side... shadow face
its good though as in a sense you get to learn the procedure from rookie(at base jumping) to being able to jump. No one is saying they will do it in 90 days, but they can learn from this guys experience about how that could approach the steps to becoming a base jumper
Very good school/instructors, very, very helpful.
It's a Birdman Tracksuit !
Very nice documentation !!!!
Congratulations buddy for what you have accomplished in such a short time, it would take a much longer time for most of the people and i realy would like to say that now you are a real SKYDIVER and will be come a great one. Parabéns !!!
yeah, normal working humans beeings don´t have X month time non stop, nor money, to crank out x Jumps a day with personal training.
I just finished my Skydive-licence in germany and it took me about 4 month to pump out 21 jumps. with many weekends were the weather was shitty or other stuff going on preventing me from jumping. (i started my journey Years ago but was forced to take a break because of work and covid, so i already hat 11 jumps prior; and was not forced to start at zero again)
omg... the way he describes the dead air jump...... i need to do that. i just skydived for the first time and that was unbelivable.
i need to do that!
Great Video! Loved it!
Joby is the Mickey Mouse pin up boy for a Disney version of BASE. He did not become a base jumper in 60 days, I only see him jumping from Span and Earth, where’s the building and Antenna? He didn’t get a base number?
From the get go this film is misleading, entertaining and honey coating none the less. But it’s basically strictly dancing for BASE jumpers. The exits were chosen with safety in mind, top jumpers to guide and risk assess and no bandit jumping( understandable but its part of BASE). Even the mushroom is hardly one of most dangerous jumps, it has a long fall time.
Its ridiculous to says you can be a BASE jumper in 60 days that’s how people get killed when they believe such things.
Just browse through the BASE fatalities list. Anybody wants to see the truth of BASE instead of the Disney version look for “the bridge to nowhere” by Антон Калюжный its shocking but it’s truthful. I suggest anyone inspired to take up BASE after Joby’s version should watch Bridge to nowhere and then decide. Or should I say SE jumping since that’s or Joby did. You also don't need to look like a 70's porn star.
Everyone should live or die the way they want, but let’s at least have truth out there instead of some Sesame Street version. This version is one side of the coin but lets also have the other.
I think the problem is it's not a coin, with one side and another. It's complex and personal, and no one should see one person's experience as being the definition of the experience.
How was your journey? You could put up a few replies with some deeper analysis. Im envious :( Big respect.
You don't have to get a BASE number to be a BASE jumper. In fact, many BASE jumpers don't agree with the BASE number system. It creates something organized, which BASE is not supposed to be, in there eyes.
I wonder what the percentage of BASE jumpers registered with a Base # is?
mickdel We'll never know. It's a rogue sport, so there are many people who BASE jump and keep that a secret. I have met many BASE jumpers who have hit all four object types in the acronym, but vehemently refuse to ever get a BASE number and speak out against it. I've met quite a few of those people. But that isn't to say there aren't many BASE jumpers who enjoy the BASE number system, and many newer BASE jumpers make it a goal to get their number as soon as possible. There have been a handful who have hit all four on their first day of BASE, which is reckless and stupid, but, well... rogue sport.
what a great story!!! welll done!!!!
95% Cash... 5% Everyone Else... 'Nuff said!!!... But it was entertaining... I love helicopters... And 8m speed wings... Thanks for posting...
I think he already knew how to jump, this is the guy that was with Jeb Corliss when he crashed on table mountain.
Really ? You have the knowledge to say that the guy is only pretending to be a beginner?
Harry Bean No, but it is a little odd that he does his first base jump and within a few years he's best friends with Jeb Corliss. I do know that he was in the mountain climbing scene before he started jumping so maybe he already knew a lot of people in the jumping scene as well. His connections and previous experience made him a natural choice for this documentary, That sounds logical at least.
Dustin is correct. The lower you go, the more dangerous it is. Correct, BASE rigs only have one chute, but there are multiple "malfunctions" that can be fixed given time and altitude.
wow, I was thinking bout AFF as a 1st step few weeks ago... man, Im scared of heights, nice vid, I like it
40:18: when someone hugs you and your only parachute and slaps on the pins of your base container right before exit...
It was one hell of a jump. Yes you should gotten a lot out of it because it is right up there in crazy land. What a thrill.
Is it only me? I think I can’t even get myself out of that helicopter at 39:00 LOL 🙈
8 to 10 jumps a day , I'm lucky to get three in :o
If national geographic payed of me to be a pro base jumper, i would be so happy
I'm not mad lol, im just trying to keep you alive so you dont end up as a statistic. Its a reality check when you see a close friend bounce off the earth. Yes some people have started base without any experience but its a massive risk that I would not recommend to anyone. Plus skydiving is awesome fun as well you'd love it.
Very inspiring.
but all technical dreams needs a sponsor.
i just realized you dont have enough time to cutaway when base jumping. no time for the reserve to pop.
They don't have a reserve!!
im more stoked than he is, i just want to send it already
2008. Time goes by. Now there are more modern wingsuits, and drones for taking footage.
Anyone notice the colors red and blue used in every thing filmed lately? But what does it mean?
This guy went from Perrine to the Alps in one step....???? Jezzzzzzzzzus
29:57... the good ol' day you had a helicopter taking aerial photoshoot.
truly inspiring much love from Marksville la. aka. avoyelles parish💜
Those that can, DO. Those that can't, complain about those that CAN.
Meh. I did it. I still think he's an asshole.
Really enjoyed this...
yes joby skydive,fly wingsuit and more
this will give me nightmares :(.
I'm terrified of heights.
But, as a first step, skydiving I will do.
Sounds simple - jump and activate parachute regardless if you're on a helicopter, a balloon, or a mountain, but it's not.
Very inspiring, thank you :)
"How to be a base jumper in 60 days"
and be dead in 61 days.
Those whose goal in life is to arrive at the grave with a well preserved body are nothing but the last of the living dead.
BadIdeas101 BOOM! Well said!!
Yeah, english isnt my mothertongue and i sometimes had to rewatch 3-4 times before get what the video said but it was worth it
Number one rule of skydiving and base jumping: make sure your balls are safely out of the way of your harness leg straps before jumping.
Straight from the bridge to the Eiger? Ske-he-hetchy!
Amazing video mate. But 120mph wind exiting the aircraft? Sure the jump pilots go to slow safe cruise at around 80kts?
NICE VIDEO GOOD ADVICE AND TUITION. !!
IM ENVIOUS. !!
top notch music in this whole documentary, damn
The AFF course cost about US $1300 and you have to make at least 150 jumps. So yeah it's kinda expensive, but it is totaly worth it!
RIP Jimmy. He died last year in a wing suit accident.
Was that a slider down packjob at the eiger?
great film. loved it.
"it goes fast. really really fast."
i really like how you're walking to the balloon with your chest-strap undone.. shows how a total badass you are! ;)
I so fucking hyped to be old enough to do this
This dude is awesome!
Rather than being a reporter posing as a skydiver, i want to be a skydiver posing as a reporter and get my jumps paid for! ha
To be honest, the bridge jump seemed a lot more scary than the eiger . great job though
The bridge is safer because you can't hit any rocks. Under the bridge is only airspace.
Amazing. Thank you.
What an excellent adventure!! Blue Skies!! D-5699
Nice! Very Nice!
what is the proper place for this kind of training and how much money should needed at the initial stage .Can any please inform me I am Doing this From my heart But it is not available in my country.......I need proper guide line to make a career in this field.
There are a bunch of places all over the world.
proud for him.
awesome video!
32:30 William murderface murderface murderface!
When are you base jumping back to the uk ?
f*cking phenomenal!! inspiring process to watch
