The Impossible Paragliding Launch
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 бер 2019
- Sometimes I just hike up a mountain without actually knowing if there is a place suitable for launching. This day was one of those times and I found myself facing my most difficult launch until today. Anyone wants to sponsor me with a new glider? :D
Location: Matzen, Carinthia, Austria
Glider: Ozone LM5
Music: Pink Panther Theme Song (Trap Remix) Prod. NOX - Спорт
Anyone who hasn’t tried this - it’s not easy to ground handle on a treacherous, self-invented slope with variable winds and rotor-esque launch point. If you think his skills are lacking, you have probably never tried it.
Thanks!
Ah, honestly, I doubt anyone think he is lacking in skills. We all look and wonder if he is insane, but not if he is good ;-)
Anyone can fly off a perfectly prepared site. It taskes a true enthusiast to make a new launch site. Love this. Can't tell you how many hours I've spent moving rocks, pulling my glider out of cactus and trees after failed attempts and doing this exact same thing. It is EXHAUSTING! Loved watching this. Thank-you!
Can confirm, since I am doing illegal paragliding it has become A LOT more fun. The secret ingredient is crime.
I love that you shared all of the failed attempts. I'm amazed you stuck with it.
It freaked me out when you finally turned around and I could see the cliff you were about to launch off. Daaang.
My palms are sweaty now.
Op clearly misunderstood "this is a nice spot to lunch"
Your bravery exceeds your ground handling skills
Andrey Green can’t really ground handle in the spot. You pull, pray, turn and launch.
Quite the comment from someone who's most recent video is flying into the middle of a cloud while grabbing the risers.
I think it is not a recomendable way of flying. Otherwise he was destroying his wing.
@@bornuponawave Nice Video, but i think there is a little better option with the left and right risers in both hands. With the the risers in one hand, the canopy has to climb good, with risers in the two hands, you could speed uo the glider sides better and launch a little easier. But no question, impressive launch
When I stumbled across this video i was like "What are you doing!!" then watching the wing fold frontal and having to climb back up to reset it for launch and your frustration as you could see it fold over made me laugh.... but fair play to you sir -you did it!!!
While watching the first attempt, I was like - Can he actually pull this off!!?
I was rooting for you, right after the first attempt!! :)
Cheers for the perseverance & skills!
Holy cow! That was awesome. I had a good laugh at your attempts. I never thought you were going to make it. I would have given up and started walking after 3 or 4 tries. Persistence pays off.
I’ve done that on straight level ground. You are brave! I enjoyed watching! Thank you for sharing!
I knew you'd get it eventually as you seemed bent upon taking off from there 👍 Well, what can I say, it was definitely a very extreme launch mate, Bravo 👍
I absolutely love your emotion at the end, great effort.
You've earned all my respect !
I have to say, this is one more favorite paragliding videos to date. Glad that it worked out.
Große Hochachtung! Verdammt rassiger Startplatz! Beim Sortieren der Leinen bei den scharfkantigen Steinen habe ich mitgelitten, am besten war die pink panther melodie...
Hats off to you sir for perseverance and determination.
I relate so much to this as I try a lot of crappy take-offs. There is always something, crappy branches, tall plants, whatever that will get in the lines. Once you fix one side, the other one has a problem. And it is all done, then the wind cycle goes down. Moments of loneliness that are funny afterward...
well put
Love it! Determination:) Brilliant and I know that feeling when you finally get off the edge...perfect!
wonderful feeling to get in the air but too dangerous to do every time. When I hike up it feels like the brain not always following me up.
Hard work pays off. Nicely done sir.
Way to persevere man! Well done 👍🏻
That was seriously one of thee craziest launches I’ve ever seen man, huge respect 👊🏼
Bravo!
Perfect start paltz! :)
GRATE JOB !!! I fly paramotor but love to be there doing that !!!
This made me laugh so much. Glad you got away in the end
Wow, awesome, congratulations.
This is a very very difficult place to start. . . but really cool done, thanks :)
Lol! That takes titanium “Nik-Naks” to launch from that location. Well done! Subbed!
2-Line, the only way! Nice extreme effort!
Best take off ever! You're a hero !
With this much preparation before start The feeling after takeoff have to be awesome.😎 👏
I love this video, I came back and watch every time
🎉🎉🎉 best take off!!! Maestro!
You mother...! You did it!!! :-) :-) :-) :-)
P.S.
I got all sweated on watching you struggle up there! And that mount-pick wasn't a joke at all... ;-)
Absolutely ludicrous launch. I'd be crapping my pants
...ask me i'm surprised to see you're the top comment.
That was the most fvckin insane stunt I have ever seen!
Great launch! Double exciting if you didn't have any spare lines with you!
This is amazing 👍
Crazy - but well done!!
Dude, thanks for taking us on your adventure. It's specially more exciting and "white knuckling" to watch because you use, my old school techiques for launching (look for breaks after airborne).
I love the view too. Fly high and far.
Hehehehe, I love it!! Stay safe man!
guy, you are the best!!! :))))
Wow you don't quit, that was hardcore!
Sick xD. Awesome man ;)
Congratulations on your perseverance🙂
Awesome...... really great!!!
This amazing launch took place on one of the highest peaks above the tiny village of Phuk Dat! ~8^)
That was both awesome and crazy at the same time... How about trying a toplanding back at the same spot? :-)
Next time ;)
Fans are never happy. Ha ha ha!!
Barely had the patience to watch let alone do that. Lol. Well done
Nice congratulations to be patient :)
maaaaaaaan! :D watching this was probably the best and the most satisfying 5 minutes for me today :D great job!
Well done!
Admit it, you actually found the spot in a take-off guide ;)
"Best place around that area...plenty of space...beautiful, grassy area...sometimes a little crowd of excited tourists"
Noooo. I just love to explore new places and I don't back out from a little challenge.
@@hasidavid2 do you often go alone?
@@davideophile yes
@@davideophile who would he find to be crazy and courageous enough to join him, anyway?🤣
You are crazy man. I loved your video. It ussually happens that when you dont have so many space your lines get stuck in the trees. Please show more videos of the complete flight man.
haha, very nice. just be patient and focused ... then it might work out ;-)
I respect your efforts.
mad respect!
Incredible patience man, I would’ve launched without the Paraglider if that kept happening to me!
Mad respect! 😎👌
You are the king ! Tu as mérité ce vol ! 😅😂
That was nuts. But I like.
Nice done dude!!!
Awesome all that hard work makes the reward so much better!
Hat off you boss. You are lion hearted flying man. An Indian viewer.
great congratulations👍🏻👍🏻
I can definitely feel the pain in a start like this! If you remember one of my launch video at Csokako... but this is a more difficult place to start. Nice job tho!
Teljesen át tudom érezni a fájdalmat egy ilyen startban. Ha emlékszel az egyik Csókakő start videómra. Bár kétség kívül ez a hely bonyolultabb! Szép munka!
Köszi. Akkor te is érted: ha egyszer már felmásztál, akkor bele kell próbálni.
Theres a cross up there for a reason.
Incredible what people do nowadays to avoid go down walking after hiking...
For the record that's what I call a one live only launch site. Well done.
One more to the heap of subscribers! I love videos where not everything goes right.
freeflight looks awesome
feels good man :))
Amazing!
omfg, i got the same emotions on yours take off, like you did, only I was on couch,.. :) congs
I'm not sure I have that level of dedication and I would be worried about my fabric. But awesome to see the persistence pay off. You wouldn't see me trying that
Balls of steel!
wow...sehr gutes Durchhaltevermögen :-)
wow nice fly and perfect fly 🔥🔥🔥👍👍👍
1000 € take off... the wing is now 5 years older!
the LM5 is an old wing either way
Maestro!
Great launch. Top skills 🤙🏻
Crazy but cool!
Top starke Leistung ☝✋
Little and flukey wind and no room to run. Crazy places. Sometimes though the place just needs to be flown!
I’ve never seen anyone so happy to be jumping off a cliff
Wow that's a sketchy peak there! I know how hard rocks are on the lines, best to avoid them if possible ;)
👍 Funny video. Walking down was obviously not an option.
Lol.. good job bro.. nice..
Clearly not impossible, as he took off! But s bloody difficult take off that's for sure. ;)
Next logical step is to land at the same spot
Well landing is actually easier and can be done on tighter spots. The only question is whether you can takeoff afterwards.
Just watched 2nd time. Bravo!!
Great effort
Good job 👍
Dei armer schirm aber zacher start man ;)
What you need is 20 more pilots to launch there at the same time.
Great ‼️
Incredible ;)
Well done! That took a lot of skill to launch.
fly is for who want, not for who can!
Insane :o
*URRULLL 👍 PARABÉNS MAGNÍFICO 🙏 SHOW SHOW MANDOU VER ,FROM 🇧🇷💪✌️ ABRAÇO AI AMIGO 👏*
YOU are truly BADASS!! SUB'd!! Thank you!
Best takeoff ever!
