Again its pretty much all in Norway which has amazing landscape, i think some of the jumps in that clip are off "trollveggen" which is some mental cliff:

A couple of years back on Top Gear two climbers raced Jeremy Clarkson in the Verdun Valley. Shortly afterwards I got to see the out takes, including some footage of an "unstable jump" basically they grabbed the guy by his arms and legs and swung him back and forth a couple of times before chucking him off the top of the cliff.

BASE is an acronym which stands for Buildings Antenna Span (i.e Bridge) and Earth (i.e. Cliff).

Would love to try it though. But maybe trying a jump from a plane first would be a good idea! The whole squirell suit thing looks amazing and deffo a thing to do before i die (quite how long before death it comes i don't know!).

Promisingly there are only 120 reported deaths from the sport since it official records in began in 1987.

Need to know how many lunatics are doing it before you can calculate the odds!
