Definitely a seat with a view….
I had a chat with one of these nutters just before he ran off the top of a very tall mountain. It was his last trip of the day and he was aiming to land in his garden.
Apparently he frequently took paying passengers. As he put it with a cheeky grin… “for a couple of hundred Swiss Francs, it’s either going to be the best ever, life changing experience or without doubt the longest, worst and most terrifying 20 minutes of your life.”
Guess who took the train down….





Lol I would’ve took the train down too Garry! 😀

I’d love to be a passenger and fly, especially if I could film it wearing a GoPro or something.

When I was doing the VR study, I watched a bunch of 1st person flight suit vids. Even in VR, that sport is INSANE!

I was at a beach football match where before the game, someone paraglided from a mountain to the centre spot with a flag. All those miles and he hit his mark.

Just looks so beautiful, Gary! Those views are amazing. I can understand why you took the train down but I would’ve taken the shortcut down. Probably screamed and passed out but nonetheless a thrill I bet!
