A wingsuit flyer has shared incredible footage of his flight through the Swiss Alps by taking advantage of an ultra-lightweight camera system.
Johannes Grasser’s video on YouTube has racked up 2.4 million views since uploading it last month. It begins with him and his friend Mario at the top of the 14,700-foot tall Täschhorn mountain and follows the stomach-churning moment as he turns to jump off.about the success of the video. “It gives you a close experience without music, ads, or edits, allowing everyone to imagine what the flight is like.
Grasser says over email that he has been a wingsuit pilot for 13 years but this particular jump was a real challenge. Grasser, along with his friend Mario, had to climb for nine hours and spent one night at the Mischabeljoch Bivouac, a remote alpine shelter that serves as a high-altitude refuge for mountaineers and climbers, approximately 3,851 meters .
