Farthest Wingsuit Flight World Record powered by Grawity watches. To make these stunning flights a lot of preparations and planning was made. Anton Squeezer Andersson did two jumps from the summit of Jungfraujoch. One attempt where he climbed the summit of Jungfraujoch at 04.00 in the morning and was ready for the practice jump around 10.00. Two world records in one day; Andersson’s countdown to infinity Nothing can stop Anton ‘Squeezer’ Andersson, the Swedish superman. Most people dream of breaking one world record, but for Andersson, its more about collecting them. At the age of 25, he now has three world record breaks under his belt. In a recent project in the depths of the Swiss peaks, Andersson acquired two of these in just one day; the longest distance wingsuit flight from a cliff and the smallest target hit during a BASE jump. For Anton ‘Squeezer’ Andersson, the feeling of adrenaline soaring through his body is nothing new. At the young age of 25, he has accomplished all this in just under 4 years. Andersson started a 6-hour climb with his team in the early hours of the 3rd July. Jungfrau, the chosen destination is the tallest peak in Switzerland at 4,158m. In the darkness, they turned on their headlights to illuminate their path. Their climb ahead included harsh traverses over glaciers and crevasses that would lead them to the point where Andersson could jump from.

Wingsuit Precision World Record - 2019, Switzerland. This is one of the parts of the two world record attempts in one day. We have had great fun with some of the more challenging jumps I've ever done. Putting together a team with great, driven and talented people was key for making this production with this outcome. The size of the golden globe of the logo was 30 cm x 30 cm in size and was placed 1,5 meter above ground level. Camera piloting was made by Scotty Nice, and world record holder is now Anton Squeezer Andersson and the attempt will be confirmed within 12 weeks. The piece of styrofoam is 1f 11⅝ inches x 1f 11⅝ inches / 0.6m x 0.6m.

(CNN)He's a Swedish superman -- minus the kryptonite -- who has become the youngest wingsuit pilot to fly through a solid target at 250 kph (155 mph). "I had a dream that kept coming back time after time when I was young about running up a steep hill, and then I just take off flying," Anton "Squeezer" Andersson tells CNN Sport over the phone from his training camp in California. Dreaming about flying might be common, but besides getting on a plane, few people decide to act on it. Just three years ago, Andersson was a 20-year-old taking extra mathematics classes to get onto an engineering course at college in Gothenburg. Then he made a tandem sky dive -- the standard first step into the world of parachuting in which the novice makes a jump while strapped to an instructor. "I really had no idea what sky diving or any of this sport was all about," Andersson recalls. "But when I did my first jump everything became really clear for me, that it was just this that I wanted to do, a lot, and I wanted to try and do it for a living and try to do it every day because I'd never experienced anything like it." A year after his first jump, Andersson tried wingsuiting for the first time. A form of base jumping, the pilots don aerodynamic suits that allow them to "fly" as they fall, steering with considerable accuracy before using a more conventional parachute to land safely. A few weeks ago, Andersson -- now 23 -- achieved that mark of becoming the youngest pilot to fly through a solid target at 250 kph after jumping off the Hintisberg mountain in Switzerland -- a peak that rises 3,000 meters above sea level. The eye-watering stunt saw him steer through gaps just 15 meters wide and through targets that were just three meters off the ground. 'What are you doing?' "When you stand on the edge you're pretty nervous and it's bubbling in your stomach," Andersson admits. "All these feelings come and run through your head and you're questioning yourself, like 'what are you doing?'" "After you're jumping off and you're falling you cannot focus on anything but the now. You get into this zone where you cannot think. I mean, you can reflect and take decisions, but it's not like you can think 'oh I'm so scared.' "You don't have time to react that way. Your brain kicks in with a kind of survival instinct." At such extremes, danger is ever-present, and Andersson says his preparation is meticulous. "We use a lot of GPS data and measuring equipment to make sure what we're doing is safe," he explains. "I also communicate a lot with other pilots to find out what they're doing. Body type and weight and so on, that all plays a part." Time stands still He describes the sensation of flying through a solid object as "mind-blowing." "Once you're flying through it you don't exactly realize that you even went through, because it's so, so quick," he exclaims. "But on the same side, it's just like time stops when you're flying." Andersson's passion for the sport comes across in everything he says. "I love to do it so much," he says breathlessly. "Even if I go and jump every day I don't feel like I'm getting tired of six hours hiking up in the mountains, seven days a week." Now a veteran of more than 1,600 jumps, many of which are documented on his Instagram and Facebook pages, his plan now is to work on his craft and try to take the sport in new directions. "My goal is to become the world's best pilot. I want to get better at mountaineering so I can do bigger expeditions on bigger mountains. "We're looking at combining with different sports, like motocross and skiing, with wingsuiting, trying to push the boundaries.

It seems like now, that all these things I've learned through wingsuiting and making videos and all these other kinds of stuff, is educating me through life as well. "It's funny. It's been wonderful. I feel I can achieve anything." Thank you Oddwork for making this project possible. Anton became the youngest person in history flying a wingsuit thorugh a stationary target.

This is what me and Brendan have been up to the last days over in Wallis, Switzerland. Few hikes to the same line (Formula White Line) made this possible and we had the time of our life at this place. Have been flying the line of my life which definitely is the most intense trench line me and Brendan Weinstein have ever flown In a wingsuit. Opened by Mathias Wyss around 2012 named The Formula White Line. Here is the "extended" version of the Formula White Line.

This is one of our favorite flights from this past week — doing these turns with Brendan Weinstein is so much fun. Definitely coming back. Left the Jungfrau area now to explore some stuff out west. Looking forward to head off to Turkey in a week. https://www.instagram.com/squeeezeer https://www.youtube.com/antonsqueezer Brendans Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/user/brendandubs Instagram: Squeeezeer Brendandubs ]]> Mon 19 Jun 2017 20:49:57 +0200 https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/15695/wingsuit-terrain-flight-through-crack-in-switzerland/ https://www.gnarpowpow.com/videos/15708/golum/
