There aren't enough words to describe the wingsuit flying done by Valery Rozov in this Redbull clip as he soars over 200 km/hr during an 800 meter free fall from Mont Blac in Italy.
Rozov is a professional mountain climber and base jumper who found a new exit point on Mont Blanc and wanted to try it out. He first spent several days scaling the actual mountain to find the perfect exit point. He found a nearly perfect vertical slope to jump from and without any real protection, took flight as cameras rolled and his crew watched on in excitement.
With this wingsuit flying feat, Redbull continues to sponsor and create content from some of the world's most daring athletes.
