An amazing video has emerged from France of a man base jumping off a cliff on Mont Blanc.

The footage, captured on August 1 last year, shows the base jumper 'flying' close to the sharp mountains.

''We jump off the tourist view platform and start flying after approx. 350ft vertical fall. the total vertical of the cliff is about 600ft,'' the filmer wrote online.

''I get 'burbled' by my friend whom jumps right before me; meaning, his arm wing blocks my air, so i 'fall' into that vacuous airspace. This is actually very dangerous, some have died b/c it can send you out of control,'' he added.

We jump off the tourist view platform, & start flying after approx. 350ft vertical fall. the total vertical of the cliff is about 600ft. Ie. 250ft more = splat :) i get 'burbled' by my friend whom jumps right before me; meaning, his arm wing blocks my air, so i 'fall' into that vacuous airspace (this is actually very dangerous, some have died b/c it can send you out of control.) so you see me kind of swivel/bobble, that's me falling into empty air, but you just stay calm, keep your head down, & hopefully, fly through it without going into a 'flat spin' (an asymmetric out of control spin. aforementioned reason for death thing.) once flying, head towards glacier field, throw a corkscrew spin in open airspace, then fly thru all the glaciers at about 200km/hr, we call them 'glacier gates,' kind of self-explanatory. pop up after, throw parachute, hopefully it opens, if it does (lol,) fly back to the town of chamonix, land, coffee, repeat :)
