Austrian Red Bull skydivers Marco Furst and Marco Waltenspiel jumped from 3,000 feet with pinpoint precision.
Two professional skydivers said successfully completing the world’s first wingsuit flight through London’s Tower Bridge was a “dream come true”.
They soared through Tower Bridge and completed a complex manoeuvre known as a ‘flare,’ to rise up again to 80 metres, the height required to open their parachutes before landing safely. “Once we were in the helicopter, we prepared everything and we both knew, OK now it’s time to shine, right, and everything was calm and it was really cool to do the jump.”
“We are super happy, super stoked, everything went well and everyone is happy,” he said after the jump.“I really enjoyed the journey and I’m really grateful to work with Marco and such a good team to bring our dream to life.”
