Russia: Watch this base jumper FLY off a 10,500 foot mountain
Adrenaline junkie Ratmir Nagimyanov is getting ready to wingsuit through these mountains
SOT, Ratmir Nagimyanov, Base Jumper "My line of flight is not quite simple. I'll have to fly right by the cliffs. This jump is training for us, we are here to get acclimatized before tomorrow's the trip to Dagestan to the Erydag Mountain."
Ratmir strapped on his wingsuit at the top of Tsey-Loam, a 10 and a half thousand foot high mountain located in the Russian Republic of Ingushetia, and adjusted his camera before preparing for the leap of faith.
Despite being called the 'Enchanted Mountain' in Ingush, Tsey-Loam is one of the most dangerous peaks in the area, claiming the lives of numerous climbers over the years.
However for thrill-seeking Ratmir, Tsey-Loam is only a practice run for jumping off an even higher Dagestani peak called Mount Erydag.
The brave Ratmir began jumping from aircraft and has performed nearly 500 jumps, including the Iset Tower in Yekaterinburg.
Always looking for a challenge, he hopes one day to jump in Antarctica and says that although he feels frightened sometimes, fear helps him survive.
