R.I.P. Dean Potter. You lived your life the fullest, and inspired the rest of us.

[@jackchan602]

ha

[@petersiegfriedkrug]

@@jackchan602 Yes, flying must be extremely enjoyable. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity yet.

[@bokeflo]

The footage of him, standing on the ledge on the Eiger, just before he jumps is Amazing.

[@GrutGrut-h7o]

Greatest adventurer of all time with an all star team that kept him as safe as possible. His life inspired all of us and showed us all what is possible. May you RIP legend.🎉❤

[@Logicsupremacy]

"I love the idea that you go from worst possible thing to best possible thing, dying to flying." This inspires me so much. RIP Dean Potter

[@mainhoondon21]

I envy people like him who get to do amazing things like this and live life to the fullest and still earn a living out of it. Def doing this before I die

[@luppii]

One of the best Videos in KZbin.

[@EricFB]

3 minute flight, holy cow! RIP man, you will be missed but you definitely shook up the adventure sport scene for years to come.

[@BoStaThij]

R.I.P Dean Potter. He died doing what he loved the most, where many of us die without doing the things they always wanted to do.

[@2000everett4]

I've been watching Dean do this stuff years. No Way is he fictional. He's doing what he loves. I wish I could do this, but my palms sweat just watching.

[@MrHouti]

WOW! BASE JUMPING FTW! Watching this gave me a great rush of excitement. I will do this someday.

[@WhitegoldPimp]

Dean is not crazy he has a lust for life that IS and will continue to be unmatched for years to come he was the person who got me into big wall rock climbing god bless you dean.

[@meaut1]

Adrenaline can become an addictive (and at times lethal) drug in itself. Pushing the boundaries should always be tempered by the value of one's life. Some will say, Dean Potter's wish finally came true. Thank God his dog "Whisper" was spared the same tragic fate. Forty-three was merely half his lifespan and much too young to stop living this incredibly beautiful journey . RIP Dean. ~oO(♫)Oo~ PS. Your best friend "Whisper" is missing you and still awaiting your return.

[@HeyBudLetsParty69]

Rip Whisper!

[@SaintDre7]

Good Grief. That's beautiful. Dude glides off mountains as a hobby.

[@victor256in]

just watching him makes me proud to be human.

[@CameronKen]

I don't know about anyone else but my favorite part of this has to be at the 0:30 mark. That's the most badass thing I've ever seen.

[@mattrocks182]

I love national geographic

[@blipco5]

That jump off the Eiger scared me and I'm sitting home on my couch!

[@Sirius-O-Serrius]

Wow, this man is a legend. I thought i was fearless, but i have a way 2 go. He is a master of ascension... Peace Within and meditation allows this.. And other characteristics that he has studied and practiced. He is a expert on birds and says he has special connection with them. Especially the flight process. Also a top athlete, rock climber, etc...

[@harbeh]

He has found true happiness!

[@PatrikFilmMaker]

RIP AMAZING YOU LIFE

[@ericeengies]

[@rmsolympic1]

[@VRCommy]

Man that rock climbing with a parachute is insane!! I was hoping he'd miss it so we can see him parachute away!!

[@IgniteYourEssence]

[@DoctorGarkle]

The only real problem with a sport like this is that it doesn't merely appear dangerous; it really is.

[@ganjaware]

awesome guy

[@Determite105]

I kinda got my heart beating fast for a second when he falls at 0:31 before I remember that he had a parachute

[@Beaver314]

the total distance covered is 5.5 km... the total drop is 2km vertically! the wingsuit obviously let's you glide along, so you're also moving at a great horizontal spead, and not just merely dropping down, so you're covering a greater distance this way
