About :

Falling hundreds of meters down, along rock faces, wearing only a fabric suit, a so-called wingsuit - perhaps one of the most extreme sports there is. The Lauterbrunnen Valley in the Swiss Alps is considered the best spot for this type of base jumping. Here, ARD correspondent Matthias Ebert, who incidentally has a severe fear of heights himself, met athletes from the wingsuit scene. He didn't jump himself, but he was at least standing next to them when they jumped into the abyss. How does this sport work? What is the fascination? But also: is it worth it? Because while for some the Lauterbrunnen Valley is the base jumping hotspot, others also call it the "Valley of Death". 67 base jumpers have already died here - more than anywhere else in the world. ????
