Would You Jump Off a Cliff and Fly? He Does!

Ever watched a BASE jumper leap off a cliff and start flying? Sunday evening (8pm EST), the National Geographic channel is showing a piece about Dean Potter. To quote part of the blurb about the show: "He can climb the unclimbable, visualize the invisible and fly through the air with the greatest of speed. As perhaps one of the worlds best BASE jumpers, he set the record for the longest flight in a wing suit. Now, Dean has set his sights on Mount Bute - a 9,000-foot granite launch pad along the British Columbia coastline."

If you want to learn more about this extreme sport and watch BASE jumpers fly off a cliff, visit BASE Jumping Birdmen.
