pretty much everything he says explains exactly how I feel about skydiving. it's such an incomprehensible feeling until you do it and once you are in it, you can't imagine life without it.
Fear overcomed with instincts and performance for the world to watch. awesom you mate!!
Most breath-taking video on TH-cam! Whenever I watch it, the past doesn't exist, the future doesn't exist, there is only now.
There aren't many people with that kind of courage in the world and those are the kinds of people who make life awesome. Good luck Goovinn, stay safe, have fun, you are a role model to me, I wish to fly just as you do someday
Skydiving has been my dream my whole life, and finally I'm 16 and old enough to do AFF. I'm going to do my first jump in exactly one month. I was in Chamonix this summer and spottet the line that Espin flies, very very inspiring... :) make dreams reality, guys!
i love that you commented this 8 years ago and now ur pfp is you skydiving. props to 16 year old you for following through, im glad you got to do something you love.
It must be requiring a lot of courage to jump of the cliff but in the mid air its all about the excitement, focus, executing perfect technique, assessing the situation real quick. Once landed safely on earth, just one "yooooohoooooooossssssss" concludes everything. As it is rightly described 99.9% efforts are made to make those couple of minutes more special and memorable. Amazing video. LOVE FROM INDIA.
Just love it. Being crazy myself, I can SO relate to these guys.........
"elegantly solving the problem" ... ABSOLUTELY!
Man i can only imagine that could never get old....
"Theres no past and theres no future, only now"
so true....this also applies to all extreme sports...full concentration of what you are doing...
Espen... trust me when i say this.. i have seen them ALL.... all the best proximity videos you could find on the internet.. I've seen them. But this video is so world class i was speechless.. by far the best footage there is out there, and also some of the best flying i ever seen.
This video will inspire lots of people out there...and will teach that nothing is impossible.
I love anybody who takes part in this sport.....sooo inspiring!
if you couldnt dream it, you couldnt do it, if you couldnt remember it, you couldnt do it, you are an eternal being, theres no such thing as now, because its gone by the time you have thought about it. Love your flying, Everythings moving always has been always will do.
this is so perfect - the flights - the pictures - the music - the making - just perfect and also unbelievable
One of the most remarkable things I have ever seen. Wow. My mind is blown.
Du är helt fantastisk! Jag fick en överdos av adrenalin bara av att titta! Jag önskar dig allt väl, Espen!
My Favourite video !! :)
"But in that moment, When pushing off to jump, i never think of what's coming next.
The past doesn't exist, The future doesn't exist - There's only NOW "
EPIC words Espan!!! \m/
Thanks Force. Ive done it for 11 years and hope to continue until im 80!
i think one could never imagine to what greatness my desire to jump has become after i have seen all these videos!
Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!
This...is absolutely amazing....I can only imagine the feeling of flying threw the air like that....
Incredible! I want to do this too... one more long held dream, made reality!
The shots of the birds say so much. They are so poetic. It's such an obviously simple metaphor but always overlooked with these X games, Go Pro, Red Bull "EXTREME SPORTS", MAN DOMINATES NATURE sensibility that dominates all of these videos on You TUBE!!! GREAT VIDEO!
Amazing - hats off to these guys. I will NEVER have the nerve.
Greatest wingsuit video ever!! That opening clip was amazing!!!
the past doesn´t exsist, the future doesn´t exist. there´s only now. beautiful! Jeg elsker deg for explaining this moment in that way.. greetings from germany!
Thanks for this amazing video. To my favorites!
You guys deserve being recognised worldwide!
What a great feeling, especialy the sense of flying, Sir espen you are the best of the best, greetings from tadjena Algeria,
I bought my wingsuit and my Mom gave me a Superman t-shirt for Xmas! LOL. Wingsuit base jumping though...... that’s dangerous! Respect to you guys that do it
My compliments to each and everyone of the persons that participated in the creation of this film. Thanks a lot to EVERYONE in the production team for putting us, the viewers in the front seat of such a risky and yet amazingly awesome experience only possible to must of us through the production of your films.
I cant stop watching the first minute of this film, amazing!
Fair enough. I bet it is way more spectacular to actually witness it in person!
Just wow! Best wingsuit documentary on youtube. Stunning camera work, and spectacular piloting. I was enthralled with the vivid description of what it is like leading up to the jump. I've jumped from planes before but i can only dream of what proximity flying feels like. Thanks for posting.
Thanks photographersa for the great comments! We had a fantastic time making the film and we hope that comes out in the frames. Thanks! Espen/Goovinn/Isthisit
He explains this really well and why we jump.. It's true when it comes time to take the step nothing else matters there is no past or future only now you forget about everything else.
Excellent short film. Thank you.
Thanks v2af! We're glad you enjoyed it, you may find all the bands on spotify or on TH-cam.
The film was masterfully done, with a subject that is fascinating (human flight) and at the end, when Believe/Leave Me started playing I smiled profusely.
Thanks to everyone involved for making such beautiful art.
The pictures and the music - you are really drawn into it. I also like the details of Norse symbolic meaning that have been included. For example, the two ravens at the edge of the cliff, but also the runes around the goggles.
Overall, with his insightful reflection, and everything else, it becomes beautiful in an artistic way.
Espen, glad you liked it... An awesome experience watching you jump and now seeing your video. A bit pissed off that for the first time in ages I hadn't taken my proper camera and had to use the iPhone though - take care!
Experienced tandem jump from 4 kilometres yesterday and at its best it went to 193km/h the free drop, so I can only respect these guys flying that close to the ground and mountains with that speed. And when their flight speed is probably higher as wingsuit gives more speed.
At that speed it was hard to see anything, so its hard to open the parachute. I can only imagine flying that close to mountain with that speed. :)
Cheers,
someone, who dreams about base jumping
That was pure Art for me to watch
I'd just like to say, I really truly admire your passion and it somehow gives me inspiration to achieve what I want in life. Not to mention me admiring the size of your balls for doing this out of passion, I'd pee myself just standing at the jump-off-point. Best of luck and take care always.
Absolutely fantastic ... but I feel that the "other" wingsuit man - him (or her) taking the same risk, deserves the same credit. They SHOULD BE ON TOO! But what a fabulous video ... keep doing it please.
2nd pilot cameraman is Ludo Woerth, he was the best at this task

this is the best we have
Fuck it... who wants to die old and healthy. Just fly.
Brought tears to my eyes! Awesome!!! More power to you. May safety consume you for the rest of your days.
You do exactly what I see myself doing in my dreams. Flights are the same. Coming down close to the surface and then Up again. This is awesome!
I used to dream I could fly like that, used to take a lot of mental energy to make it so, but I'm 60 now, done with skydiving and hang-gliding, I'll be sticking with parascending and a 1000 ft. tow rope, thats all I need now...a short canopy ride does me just fine. Great photography...take care and have FUN....
Thanks! We appreciate it!
Brilliant movie! Great to see some footage of Espen pullin his trademark lines!!
Thanks, glad you liked our film!
THIS IS AMAZING! Please keep making these, it inspires people!
More than you will ever think :)
Cheers man!
- From the Netherlands!
It means a lot to hear your feedback Lisztization. Thanks a bunch. More films will come:)
Your video is the reason I'm starting skydiving...I need to see what this feels like! Thank You for such a great video!
Awesome video, excellent production, love the ultra slo-mo shot from the ground at 5:58. Can't get enough of wingsuit videos and this is one of the best. Good work, keep em coming ;o)
If you're gonna go, go doing what you love...
Greetings from LA.
Fantastic film made by highly passionate people. Great work guys!
nothing more than a single word: AMAZING!!!
Fantastic ! A Smart man to see the danger & admit fear ; it shows you respect what you are doing. You guys are the new pioneers of the sky . The early pilots were thought of as crazy also ; look at us now ! Fly safe guy !!
magnificent moments.
Eso es increible!!! Ojala todos pudiesemos tener esa experiencia.
Absolutely awesome! Thank you for sharing and the footage just keeps getting better.
Dammmn at 0:39 when he gets about a foot away from jagged rocks! Probably the most badass successful flight ive seen
Yes!
Unbelievably AWESOME! I think my heart actually jummped at point :58, truly remarkable.
Thank you!
I admire people they overpassed their shadow, they are breaking the borders of human scare. Before i die, i must try this, and when i survive, with clean mind i can say to myself: Yes, i lived...
Wow! So Intense! Best wishes to Espen for the World Wingsuit League in China!
I'm going to put doing this on my bucket list.
Masterpiece!!!
pure radness
This is BEYOND amazing!!!!
Thanks for not ruining the video with music!
Thanks A. Vera from Espen, Isthisit and us at Goovinn! It means a lot. You can also check out SENSE OF FLYING from last year. All the best.
Thanks!
the best team effort on utube, Great flying ,great filming, great directing, great music ,
Whats the next dream? goal? idea? or is that unbeatable?
PHENOMINAL
wingsuit flying has to be such an incredible adrenalin rush that daredevils like this guy get addicted to it ...
Was THIS in my Homeland...Liechtenstein/Alsesloain/Switzerland? Love THIS
Thanks - glad we could inspire!
how could you possibly give this a thumbs down? great video, extremely insane!
refreshing to here someone talk about the dangers and the other people ur lifestyle involve. i swear my heart was acually beating faster when u were talking about stepping off and going against ur instinct. i really envy ur life choice and i like to think i could do it someday although that will prob never happen, so keep living out my dreams this sport is special. U guys are different u must get a sense of that from comments
F r e e d o m...!!! Enjoying this life! Wowwwwww!!!!!!
Wow..amazing...i need a wallpaper of that coming down the rocky hill flying between the trees..
Absolutely beautifully profound! Breathtaking!!! I can only imagine the exhilaration.
I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO DO THIS WHEN I'M younger!
Thanks, appreciate the great feedback!
That's exactly how it looks when I dream. For years I've been flying around the tree tops of Mount Tamalpais for years in my dreams. And of course it's fun and very safe. I've never gotten hurt yet after all these years.
My new hero. This was awesome
This is awesome, and extreme Wow on how close you were buzzing the rocks.
it's an amazing film, I enjoyed alot...especially the raw footage of the helmet camera without soundtrack, just wind blowing, it puts you much closer to the experience of flying...some day, oh some day I will ;)
Thanks JANESLIST, much appreciated!
Yup!
Thank you for this video.
he is one of the best wingsuit pilots among people like leudovick weorth,jeb corliss, jokke sommer and alexander polli. so amazing cant wait tok get mine and start flying as well
I thought skydiving was a thrill, being a human flying squirrel looks unbelievable.
Just Awesome...
Breathtaking!! Outstanding work!!
loco de remate ,tremenda locura,felicitaciones¡¡
