Wingsuit Flying Over a Dam and Dam Wall

This is Brendan Weinstein, a 29 yr old wingsuit pilot, the mountain Brendan is flying down is Le Pleureur, located in Switzerland, and the dam is called Mauvoisin Dam.
Brendan said , he has been making this jump for 2 years with one goal, to build up enough speed, to buzz the lake and fly over the wall of the dam at the end, and it took him 28 flights to figure it all out.
Brendan runs the company BaseBeta which is dedicated to serving base jumpers, and has done roughly 1200 wingsuit flights, 700 base jumps, and 800 skydives and spent 2 years preparing for this flight with fellow jumpers.
I did a story in 2018 on Brendan Weinstein and since doing that story, Brendan came to me and asked if I would tell you about this flight.
Thanks for watching

@@botero01 You got me curious so I looked up the stats. Fatality rates: 1, skydiving 1 death per 100,000 jumps, 2, BASE jumping 1death per 500-1000 jumps, 3, wing suit flying approx 1 death per 500 jumps. So the death rate is about 0.02%, or 200x more dangerous than standard skydiving which is significant when you consider that to get training for wing suit flying the schools want you to have had 200 standard jumps first, meaning only skilled jumpers get to progress onto wings.

Freakin’ amazing! I so wish there was also just one long take without cuts, so one could experience the whole flight POV style uninterrupted.

[@WonderWorldYTC]

even his original video had lots of cuts, i did the best i can with what he had for me to use.

[@skemsen]

Wonder World - And a great job you did! I didn’t mean to sound complaining or ungrateful. It’s just that whenever I see great flying videos like these or with POV drone flights through beautiful/interesting scenery I experience this intense yearning for it to be a long, uninterrupted forward looking flying - like it would from your own perspective if you actually could fly superman style. I guess I’m the only one with this “fetish” cause these videos are almost impossible to find on YT. The creators always edit them with cuts :-/

[@WonderWorldYTC]

@@skemsen they are hard to find, because no matter how amazing footage look, 4k cinematic, flying over valleys or cities, people would prefer to watch crummy 480p footage with a story. It's just a simple fact. People would much rather watch a slide show of still frame pictures with a text or narrated story, than the most beautiful 4k cinematic footage. I have come across so many channel that have filmed the most amazing footage I have ever seen, like like 1k views. and i have come across the crummiest videos ever made with millions of views, simply because they had a story to tell. it just pays more to tell a story than to look pretty.

@@skemsen You're not the only one at all. I constantly feel this frustration. The worst thing is when a video actually has "POV" in the title, but not all of it is POV. Misleading :(

He was extremely lucky. He was below the dam and somehow managed to gain just enough altitude to clear it without ending up like a squashed tomato.

[@sztigirigi]

I think this might have been a part of the plan. I didn't know such a manoeuver is possible.

[@tomasgarza1249]

It wasnt a fail and a save, he planned that

Holy crap that was so awesome to watch. THANK YOU.

Amazing flight! Thanks for sharing.

Wow, amazing what you can do with the ability to take weeks off from your job, and spend thousands of dollars on training, equipment, travel and filming.

Wonderful ! Thank you 👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀

[@purdysanchez]

This man's dream, was to see how close he could come to smashing into at concrete wall at 100mph without actually hitting it. To each their own I guess.

Dude flew over a dam. I'll bet he just flies back up.

Use common sense.

[@Incountry]

Really, Look at the inverted comma’s, it’s not a statement, it’s suggested as if one of the guys is asking the rest of the flying trio the question...!!! Seriously, you need common sense maybe or an education that doesn’t include relations with your sister, Schmuck.! Read before commenting then you won’t sound like an imbecile...

Between 1981 to 2012, 50 people died flying in , and 80 people died when their parachute failed to open. The for all skydiving sports combined is approximately 1 per 100,000 jumps. For flying the rises to approximately 1 per 500 jumps

Me: watches video Also me: Flying Is now possible

[@ElChapos]

That’s on my bucket list. Definitely worth the risk.

[@markblundell9461]

I really appreciate the wing suit footage, but I always think about the ones who crashed and burned ( died). So I cringe as I watch.

[@FlyingAngel69]

At the start of the video I think it was crazy. Now I think its absolutely insane

[@thechumpsbeendumped.7797]

That made the hairs on my body stand up. Brilliant flying.

[@Sly_Wolf_1]

Awsome! The feeling must be unreal! Sadly two things prevent me from trying this: 1. Lack of wing suit 2. Lack of giant sized balls!

[@WonderWorldYTC]

and you also lack experience & training, don't forget those 2 things
