GoPro: Wingsuit Flight Through 2 Meter Cave - Uli Emanuele

Uli Emanuele pilots what is possibly the most technical and difficult BASE jump ever. For the past 3 years Uli has been dreaming about and preparing for what could be a world record jump. With just his wingsuit and hiking poles, he climbs to his exit point and realizes there is no turning back.
Shot 100% on the HERO2® camera from ‪GoPro.com.

If you have watched the specials on this you would see how these people who have lost friends and spouses continue to speak of their addiction to the sport. They sound like drug addicts who have seen loved ones die of heroin overdoses but can't bring themselves to quit. These people are literally addicted to the adrenaline rush and are very frank about needing to get closer and closer to the terrain so the "rush" continues to be the same. Eventually the screw up and die. Almost all the "pioneers" of this "sport" are dead and everyone knows someone who has died but they can't see the issue.

Unfortunately, this does not surprise me. Far more experienced wingsuit divers have died attempting to pass through caves 10 times as large. Sad from a very personal point of view.

The objective difference is, that you usually can raise the money required for your addiction legally, until the golden shot takes you ...

Talent can only bring you so far and there are always things beyond anyone's control that can easily bring death. But I doubt he was doing this for the admiration of others. Deep inside, I think he must have really loved this. I am sure that I would, too. Rest in peace Uli. I cannot judge, or do anything but be very grateful for the parts of your life you shared with us all. Ultimately, I do feel that you made the world a more beautiful place, and that is a very good thing. So many spend very long lives spreading greed, and selfishness, or ugliness to the world.

“There are a lot of people saying a lot of things about wingsuit BASE deaths. There is no single factor, and there is truth in every statement about ego, video, complacency, access, summer vacations, etc. But if we were to work on just one thing, it would be education … The simple truth is that wingsuit BASE jumpers don’t know what they are getting into, don’t know how to practice the sport safely, and don’t even know enough to know how little they know. “ -Matt Gerdes, chief test pilot and co-designer at Squirrel.

What is his name

[@joseph_daniels]

Wikipedia: "17 August 2016, two deathsUli Emanuele (29), an Italian base jumper, died in a crash at Lauterbrunnen in Switzerland while shooting a new video. He was famous for his flights through a ring of fire and a needle’s eye formed by a rock. The other fatality was a 49 year-old Briton who jumped from the “High Ultimate” peak at Muerren and who also crashed into a cliff."

[@kencur9690]

Perhaps because it’s not hard at all to believe it? I mean, look at these stunts? That’s what makes them so special: that they are death-defying. Alas, you can only defy death for so long...

[@knpstrr]

I mean no disrespect, but why is that hard to believe? Look what is recorded here? Incredibly dangerous. Then he has to top that.

[@juliuskrieg9945]

Non riesco mai a provare dolore, quando qualcuno se ne va facendo ciò che ha amato per tutta la vita. Marco Simoncelli in moto (per ricordare un'altra persona che ammiravo), Uli Emanuele durante l'ultimo volo, persone che hanno vissuto appieno la loro passione. La tristezza per la vostra scomparsa è inevitabile, ma sempre nella consapevolezza che, ritornando a vivere su questa Terra, pur conoscendo il prezzo da pagare, rifareste le stesse scelte ancora una volta. Onorato di avervi conosciuto e di aver condiviso le vostre emozioni.

[@VisibelProductions]

Amer Reggie Do the same thing without the rocks, and then if possible try it out by going through a larger hole. It's about aiming, and obviously knowing how to use the gear.

[@orbojunglist]

Amer Reggie I've seen a few videos where they use polystyrene targets and balloons etc at certain heights from the ground to see how low they can go and how accurately they can fly, did I also mention that stupidity is the main requirement, and stupidity requires no training. What we see here has nothing to do with courage.....

[@rcbif101]

Amer Reggie - The lamas were fenced in, he was never in any real danger.

[@Hollabuck]

Alphonsus Jr. Do you think all extreme sports are just stupidity in action then? If so, I hope you find excitement in other areas of life. We all view the world, not to mention our personal goals, differently. The way I picture you from this context, this man is more courageous than you will ever be.
