Austrian Daredevil, Freefall World Record Holder

Felix Baumgartner is a skydiver and a BASE jumper. His nickname is “Fearless Felix” and “God of the skies” because of the dangerous nature of the stunts he has performed during his career. In 2012 he made history by breaking the world record for the highest-ever skydive, jumping from a balloon more than 39km (128,000 ft) up in the stratosphere and became the first person to break the speed of sound without mechanical assistance. The daredevil skydiver and helicopter pilot has made a career out of pushing the boundaries of human flight, always seeking to go faster, higher and further.

“Baumgartner is an extreme sports legend, and will go down as such in the history of extreme sports”

[expand title=”In detail”] Felix began skydiving when he was 16, polishing his aero-acrobatic skills in the Austrian military’s demonstration and competition team. In the 1990s, he moved from traditional skydiving to Base jumping, leaping off fixed objects and using a parachute to break the fall. He has completed many incredible feats in his BASE jumping career, broke two other world records (highest freefall and highest manned balloon flight) to complete his most daring mission to date.[/expand]

[expand title=”What he offers you”]Felix is motivated by scientific endeavour, the desire to see what the human body can achieve. He is also spurred on by the desire to see what no-one else has seen, to be alone at the highest reaches of the skies. Drawing upon his own personal experiences he inspires and challenges audiences to achieve goals beyond their wildest dreams. [/expand]
