Daredevil Speed Flyer Races Down Mountain in Austrian Alps

A French speed flyer captured footage of his rapid descent down a mountain in the Austrian alpine region of Neustift im Stubaital.

The footage by David Andreev shows him descending Brennerspitze mountain in the Stubai Alps. He said the video was filmed in November 2020.

“For my descent I use a small paraglider also called ‘speedwing’ which allows me to glide fast and with great precision,” he told Storyful. “During the flight I come dangerously close to the ground, skimming rocks and a small mountain river.” Credit: David Andreev via Storyful
