BASE Jumpers Consecutively Leap Off Alpine Cliff

A BASE jumper documented an amazing jump he undertook with two fellow daredevils, as they all dove off a cliff in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland, in quick succession last summer. Albert-Reynard Axel, who regularly documents his love of BASE jumping to a shared https://www.youtube.com/@highncolor3489 YouTube account and has done roughly 60 jumps so far, told Storyful that there was "a lot of preparation for this kind of jump." This jump is often referred to as "La Mousse" in Lauterbrunnen Valley, Switzerland, and according to the Swiss BASE https://www.swissbaseassociation.org/high-la-mousse Association , it has an altitude of 2,660 feet. Axel was joined by his two friends, who also have a love of skydiving: https://www.instagram.com/chrismrcn/ chrismrcn and https://www.instagram.com/_valoulou__/ _valoulou__ . BASE is an acronym for building, antenna, span (such as a bridge), and earth. Axel told Storyful about his love for the sport, saying, "For most people, BASE jumping is about adrenaline, but not for us. For us, BASE jumping is all about adventure, friendship, knowledge, and life," he said. (Footage by Albert-Reynard Axel/Storyful via Getty Images UGC)
