VLOG 26 // Paragliding above 6000m! | Karakoram Highway

A story from 2012, when I traveled the Karakoram Highway from Islamabad in Pakistan all the way to Kirgistan, with stops for paragliding in the Hunza Valley and an attempt to climb and fly Muztagh Ata (7500m) in China...

Cool, dass du mal ein altes Abenteuer ausgegraben hast und so schön neu aufbereitest und präsentierst!

[@mitchellmcaleer2969]

There are two images that stuck with me all my flying career, a Vol Libre cover of a bathtub fitted to a tandem hang glider, the pilot and passenger without helmets or harness, just off launch at St. Hilaire, the other Sylvester's Bird Man of the Karakorum.

[@iqraruddin7357]

I am from northern Pakistan and I know the bird man of karakorum. I remember the way he disappearing in the mountains of hunza❤

[@lovri1]

Really like your vlog’s , watched them all ! Very inspiring for a 64year old pilot like me who loves flying, but never feels really comfortable at height, when its turbulent.

[@TheWindigomonster]

Louis de Vries it is rare that a pilot is ever truly at ease when they’re high up and the air is rough (in my experience)

[@OzCaGrr]

Inspiration overflow! Great motivation för a beginner paraglider like me. Keep it up!

[@PronichkinV]

Great content! Great story! Keep going!

[@rayfletcher3683]

Very inspiring!

[@floski5389]

Richtig coole Story - auch sehr hart kurz vor dem Gipfel umzukehren, aber oftmals ist es einfach besser so. Freu mich aufs nächste Video. Vielleicht kannst du mal deine gut organisierte „Sportkammer“ vorstellen - ich hab immer so einen „saustall“ bei mir 😅, da würden paar Tipps sicher nicht schaden.
Mach weiter so 💪🏼

[@gameofconsciousness]

[@Fimpiekijke]

Enjoyed the Vlog, looks like you all prepared very well, video takes are very good and soaks you really in the project. You mentioned that you experienced altitude sickness, was that the case ? What about flying down in thunderstorm areas, do you measure actually before flying out ? Looking forward to your next project :-)
