BASE jumping involves the highly dangerous practice of jumping from any fixed location at a low altitude, such as a building, antenna, span or a part of the Earth, and then using a wingsuit or normal suit and parachute to return to the ground. Follow the life of freefall filmmaker Carl Boenish, credited as the ?father? of BASE jumping, and the early days of the sport. See how BASE jumping began through old footage from the 1970's and early 1980's and interviews from current BASE jumpers and others who remember Boenish's passion for the sport that eventually claimed his life.
