- 5 years ago
This french wingsuit adrenaline junkie ice climbed his way to the top of Le Meije in the French alps near the border with Italy only to base jump from the top.
Footage from July 20 shows Vincent "Veush" Cotte scale the alpine peak with a pickaxe on an icy facade.
When Cotte completed his ascension he proceeded to jump off the cliff and use his wingsuit to guide him to the bottom of the valley.
Cotte described the venture as: "[It's] a dream come true!
"It's not just about flying down, it's about the adventure and the mission to climb on the top, share the journey with friends, learn new things!"
