A new set of 2 DVDs dedicated to Felix Baumgartner and his most spectacular projects.
“I’m not crazy, not an adventurer, not an adrenaline junkie. I’m someone who sets himself goals that no-one has ever set before – and achieves them.” Extreme athlete Felix Baumgartner has now brought together his twelve most spectacular projects from the past ten years on two elaborately produced DVDs, and they’re a world tour between heaven and earth: the breathtaking images let one experience both his jump from the Christo Redentor statue in Rio de Janeiro and his flight over the English Channel between Dover and Calais, as well as the “Petronas Twin Towers” project in Kuala Lumpur.
The new Felix Baumgartner DVD contains not only previously unreleased material from the Salzburg native’s jumps and flights, but also provides a behind-the-scenes look at the work of the world’s most famous and controversial B.A.S.E. jumper. Extensive features on the projects “Channel Crossing” and “The Cave” make it clear just how much work, how much professionalism and technical ingenuity, how much exactitude, imagination, and often humor are necessary in order to make Baumgartner’s unusual dreams to unbelievable reality.
Felix Baumgartner’s retrospective consists of two DVDs. Both DVDs are playable in German and English, as well as in the PAL and NTSC formats.

Press reviews:
License to thrill:
Accompanied by James Bond-esque music (on the opening credits), Felix Baumgartner’s dramatic motto, „Everyone has their limits. Not everyone accepts them“, initially leaves you with a raised eyebrow.
But after that you cannot look away, as the jumps and adventures shown leave you simply fascinated.
Glued to the box, you just have to keep watching until the last parachute is opened.
