[@gotta-jibboo9139]

The music for this is perfect. Beautiful footage. What a dream..

[@brennuswhite1845]

I'm from baffin Island, and I left a long while ago. Thank you for making my home look as beautiful as it is.

[@chirulucian4284]

Why did you leave the island? How welcoming is that place for a foreigner?

[@brennuswhite1845]

@@chirulucian4284 Well, depends on the place. Maps tend to skew its height, but Baffin island is actually quite large. Iqaluit, the capital city of nunavut and the biggest city on the island and in the territory, is fine with foreigners for the most part. If you're going to go there though, you're likely going to be culture shocked. Things aren't great there, and there's a large homeless population in some parts. Also, just so you know, things in stores cost double what they do in most places, if not triple.

@@chirulucian4284 Baffin is fucking huge but most of it is uninhabitable

[@catastrophic82]

Possibly the most beautiful object ever jumped.

[@user-jz3vc9kd2j]

That's not even the big one there. Baffin has THE biggest vertical cliff in the world. It gets jumped also.

[@ihasjb3]

you've given me the inspiration to keep going on the base jumping journey. 140 skydives feels like slow progress but i'll make it one day. keep it up, thats truly something beautiful

[@DSShelby23]

You're so close! Practice canopy accuracy on every jump! Read the great book of base. Read a parachute and its pilot. Get after it!!

[@TheGhostOfFredZeppelin]

It’s never too late, my old man kept BASE jumping well into his 60s!

[@Vativ]

These types of videos hit different at 1am, beautiful video.

[@wesmaly]

how does this not have more views???

[@timevans3234]

Because its a best kept secret.

[@Stuartmwales]

Holy shit man..! What an absolutely Jaw Dropping small movie that was..? It just grabbed a hold of me & dragged me into watching it all & with unadulterated attention.. An Astonishingly stunning piece of work for sure.. Well done all involved.. And from an armchair POV. I was so ready to leap.. Though from a real life POV.. I'd be markedly skeptical lol 😂

[@RyanM-ke2gu]

Epic! That's serious dedication. I thought sleeping on a roof waiting for pre dawn or climbing a ladder for 3 hrs was commitment ;-) but you guys took it to another level. Kudos! That environment is not forgiving... Much respect

[@aerialelliott6299]

What an incredible place to jump! I'd love to go there someday myself.

[@BadBrucey]

Looks so surreal with that fjord of ice between the mountains. Beautiful.

[@henryhuinink9718]

Only in Canada!! The world's highest vertical - mount Thor - 4,100 ft or 1.25 kilometers. Climb it, one of the world's remotest peaks - then base jump it! Awesome music and theme with this video. ❤

[@masaharumorimoto4761]

Bananas!!! Thanks for filming, I'm crippled and no way I'll ever jump off that fooker LOL!!!!

[@albaalm1036]

I just Love this video! It is so Beautiful and I watch it many times. So Beautiful amazing and fantastic!

[@marcferrari6221]

C’est tellement beau 🤩 ÉNORME..

[@albaalm1036]

I love this so much! ❤❤❤ FREEDOM contact with God

[@johnpaullopeztaberdo5997]

G'day Gary, good to meet you just now mate. Thank you for sharing the info about base jumping, Canada and e-bikes :-)

[@villes7955]

Breathtaking

[@brunosavastano1851]

it is my dream to see this place in person

[@jimday666]

Ah, good ol' Alan Watts narrative. nice

[@dhaft88]

This is so cool!

[@juanmamartinez5312]

Beautifull.... Very nice Jump

[@Gladki007]

I don't even dare to dream about going to Baffin. I hope that one day I will be able to afford it, for now there is not even a point considering it :P How much does a trip like that cost? How long time did you spend there? Who was organizing it? Thanks for sharing that video!

[@hoop-djonez8669]

Rip jimmy

[@garypenglis7901]

On this first trip to Baffin my wife bought me a Grape Soda badge - www.etsy.com/au/listing/120370325/replica-ellie-badge-grape-soda-pin - anyone familiar with the film UP would know it's significance. I wore it on every jump. On my next trip a year later (2019) Harvey, one of the Inuit who was on the recovery attempt in 2010, took me to the bottom of French Touch where I embedded the badge in the granite at the base where it meets the Fjord. Harvey showed me thru the rifle-scope where Jimmy lays. Jimmy was a good friend and his accident was a sobering reminder that kept a lot of us safe and conservative. He rests in one of the most beautiful parts of this planet. RIP friend. G.

[@cameron9643]

oh my, you can count me out. That scares me just by watching.

[@zephyrjo6947]

wow !

[@MrLince-hr4of]

is this the frozen occean ?

[@adrianalisitza5543]

Wow. I wish I could do this.

[@louismackay4278]

How did you get up to the top?

[@obesefrogman]

jesus, man. this made me dizzy. can barely force myself to jump off the high dive

[@malapartekapput]

nice footage, when it was? in spring ? april ?

[@LeicaR10]

Where can I find this music?

[@malcolmabram2957]

Spare a thought for a few minutes outstanding experience, the time to get to the place, let alone walk up it. Oh, and the weather needs to be good, and not too cold.

[@jessicadevnani1074]

Hi there, I work for Matador Network, we are interested in licensing this video. Do you have an email I can contact you at? Thanks!

[@danielthomson4462]

How high are the exits?

[@samscrib8719]

I can't believe that's a real place

[@MegaGronis]

I thought it was from Baffin Island. Mount Thor, Mount Asgard, Mount Odin.

[@-Opiate-]

Wow, beautiful all around guys. Those jumps were sick. Anybody know how high those walls were??

[@garypenglis7901]

Ottawa Peak exit 4,800' Kiguti exit 3,500'

[@-Opiate-]

@@garypenglis7901 holy shit that's so sick. I've enjoyed your trip several times already, thanks a million for the upload. Your jumps were killer man!!!!!!

[@-Opiate-]

One last thing please, which one is first, Ottawa or Kiguti?? Thanks brother. Damn that was live.

[@garypenglis7901]

Sure.... First and Last jump is Ottawa. The 3-way is Kiguti. Sam Ford Fjord is 74 deg north. Temp's in late April were -40 min to -16 deg C max. I'm just an old-skool tracker who can barely track for shit. Check out some sick tracks from Simon here vimeo.com/270394470

[@-Opiate-]

@@garypenglis7901 man, you look awesome to me. I'm full on skydiver, from military, but new to BASE. Practiced tracking while skydiving, tilted my head bout an inch and lost my track, went straight down. So I'm learning. You guys straight killed it. Beautiful locale, and I dig whoever was in the gray, how he just sorta jumped off, not immediately tracking, that shit was real. Anyway, thanks for sharing brother, and thank you for your reply. One jumper to another, full salute guys. Check out another sick trip with more Aussies, BASE jumping through Europe (title) by Ausie Brian. you won't be disappointed.

Considering there is only 1 person on the island for every 20 square miles, I doubt anyone will be bothered.

@@lucamicheli8131 Luca, because you have replied with some research I will grace you with a reply here one final time. Your research is correct with these activities in the National Parks of Baffins Island, Kluane and Auyuittuq. As I have stated repeatedly ... WE ARE NOT JUMPING IN THESE PARKS. Sam Ford Fjord is about 60 NM NW of Clyde River and jumping her IS PERFECTLY LEGAL - *** WE ARE NOT IN THE PARKS *** WE ARE NOT IN THE PARKS *** WE ARE NOT IN THE PARKS *** The police, government and local Inuit communitites have our blessing, support and encouragement.

[@Mars-fu8wb]

Is this from Thor mountain?

[@garypenglis7901]

No... but I wish ! Mt Thor is located in Auyuittuq National Park to the south. This is Sam Ford Fjord. Jumping here is perectly legal but they will soon make this a national park as well.

[@Mars-fu8wb]

Gary Penglis gotchu. Beautiful video man 🤙🏼
