This is the Obergabelhorn, in the beautiful Val d’Anniviers in Wallis, Switzerland. An impressive pyramid shaped summit just above 4000 m The summit in the background is the famous Matterhorn and its characteristic « flat top » when seen from Anniviers. To me this is one of the most beautiful valleys in Switzerland. I look forward to being there next week
I thought this was Gasherbrum IV for a second until I realized no way a heli could be flying in that altitude if it actually was (FYI Gasherbrum IV is just under 8000m). Also unrelated but on the topic of altitude. I find it wild that I have been in a *valley* higher up than the mountain in the vid (Khunjerab Pass - 4700m). The Himalayas/Karakoram are insane
That sound he makes at the beginning is epic. It sounds like the last expression of the part of him that was arguing for no-go after it lost the argument.
In the 80's and 90's, we were doing a ton of first descents down really nasty faces. People thought we were nuts at the time. After seeing what guys are doing today, we weren't $h¡t. This is insanity.
The amount of stamina you have to use just to prevent yourself from falling of the side of a mountain is insane! This guy has some seriously tempered muscle! Also experience!
Watching action/secondary sports on a screen will never capture the reality of just how visually jaw dropping terrain like this is in real life. 15-20 years ago I was a professional FMX rider.

They said we had no idea just how far and high you are. I'm an only child . Some things in life we have to see for own eyes to really understand or appreciate just how beautiful or amazing something like the athlete above has achieved which gives us so much more respect.
Most avalanches occur on slopes between 30-45 degrees. Furthermore, the visible striations indicate even more diminished likelihood of an avalanche due to how weather hits that slope, so there’s little risk of it happening here.
Crazy jump ever by skier Jérémie Heitz as he descended Ober Gabelhorn, a near-vertical slope (55 degrees) in the Pennine Alps in Switzerland. I had to hold my breath watching this!😅
You always hear that go pros make things seem way less steep and having the wide shot from the heli vs the go pro makes it more apparent. Its actually made me appreciate some other videos even more. This is absolutely insane

You can find a video of the descent on my channel, but obviously didn't ride as fast as Jeremy (conditions were pretty icy though).
