Way to go!

Cordless bungee jumping.

At least he died to nice music. Rip.

So I take it the chute failed to open?!😮

Imagine finally being able to go camping at Yosemite. Planned for a year, bought the gear, drove hundreds of miles, planned what you and your family would do and then someone jumps off and dies nears your tent. It would ruin your entire trip. Selfish people who only think about themselves!

Stupid….

Great video.

Nice work man - I was 45 minutes behind you in the end. What a day!

Fantastic!

Are you coached by Matt Daniels of #boulderboys fame? Nice work

Great video Congratulations on sub 24 👊

Great job!

I'm simply not into splat. As a retired fireman I've had my fill of accidents. Some say this was an accident. But to me it appears to be on purpose. Kind of like intentionally ramming your car into a brick wall knowing the force is on your side and you have seat belts and airbags. What could go wrong?

Where was the Wile E. Coyote thud and dust cloud at the ending ?

Yes, he did jumped and died. Took his friend with him. Adrenalin junkies with death wishes. To each his/her own. Kick ass supernatural dude.

Dean Potter didn't die jumping off of Half Dome. He died jumping off of Taft Point.

I just watched a video of a suicide.

l think this type of thrill seeking is egomaniacal and narcissistic at the same time. Do the survivors have to clean up the gore or the National Park Service? You want an adrenaline rush, ride a roller coaster. You want to be courageous, help out the neighbor you've never talked to who's in trouble. l don't see women taking these death defying risks.

It’s a free country , though I do feel bad for whoever has to clean up afterwards.

Splat!

I hope his family got a refund for that "flying" suit.

Wind wasn’t even blowing dummy

Ive come so close so many times, to ending it in a split second of ill timing...............and crawled away instead of dying. It seems to run in my family, shoulda died but took a good bounce and lived. The angle of the dangle is a real thing. Raced flattrack flat out for 10 years, beat up badly but lived. Numerous other insane close calls. Never wanted to jump off half dome.

I guess your life is decided by an updraft (live) or downdraft (die). why wouldn’t someone do a smoke test first to see if today is your day?

Half of the wingsuit videos on KZbin have "rest in peace" in them. That should tell you something. It's a waste of life. Who knows what he could have accomplished?

Risk v reward - risk v reward - risk v reward...

Mercy me

This isn't Dean. I thought Dean jumped with someone else

Should be illegal to do this in our national parks. It's not your personal amusement park. Respect Nature.

California don't play, you may be on your own.

First thing that went through his mind? His ankles....

Suicide?

I'm guessing all the action after 0:32 takes place UNDER the red progress bar on my KZbin screen.

If he stay at home!!

At least he didn't have his dog in his back pack. RIP Mr. Potter.

Guess he got the rush he was looking for. Darwin wins again.

He died doing what he loved, which I guess was dieing by jumping off a cliff.

Splat!

It's not the fall , it's that sudden stop that gets you .😢

At least there should be audio.

You might as well, ,,,,,JUMP, JUMP, Go head an jump.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Why glorify stupid behavior? Ok. Go ahead.

Mentally disturbed men of all kinds are born daily: Suicidal idiots, unhappy with being alive. Murderers and sexual deviants beyond enumeration. There is no quality control over what comes into the world. Women come with their own special problems, and loose their lives as they reach their fornicable age. They are human products gone wrong at the production line. There is no natural selection. Bloke from Aus.

Rest in Peace . God will forgive you for throwing away the life he gave you to show off. Well , you could ask him to , good luck with that.

Thanks Ryan.

Reminds me of our rather snowy August ascent in 1981. On the way down, we glissaded an incredible 30 solid minutes, slow but nonstop! We dropped 4,000' in that one glissade. It was the single most glorious glissade I ever did, and this video captures it perfectly. Just increase it to 30 minutes!!! My second favorite glissade, which I have done many times, is from the false summit to the lunch counter on Mt Adams. That is 2,500' and 10 minutes of bliss every time :).

So is this the vid where he used the valley floor as a canvas for “his” abstract art? IDK? Never heard of him? Assuming he died doing what he loved 🤔 MUcH Respect ✊🏾 RIP

my puppy kept biting it so the engraving scratched off. I’m gonna get a medal punched one

I enjoyed this glissade myself, but I sure wouldn't do it without my ice axe in my hand for self arrest. So many people die after they loose hold of their ice axe (especially when it's attached to their backpack)
