I'm a teacher and had to explain altitude belts in the alps to my students, I used this video in several classes to visualise the actual belts....amazing footage, thanks.

Coolest thing I have EVER seen. Thanks GoPro for making cameras, I would have never been able to see what I've seen if it wasn't for you guys. Amazing videos!

What a race. To glide over all the incredible scenery then to finish in Monaco, truly amazing

Great video! I've always wanted to try paragliding

I admire these guys for their courage and perseverance. The views are absolutely beautiful!

Truly amazing.. What a view from up there in the sky!

I am italian and I have a very small house in the north (in the Dolomiti mountains) and I can totally understand why he is doing it. Being there is a wonderful experience, I can only immagine how it is to fly over those valleys...

The views are magnificent just watching the video, I can only imagine the beauty from way up there.

Incredible footage! What an event!!! One for you Louise Edwards

It's so cool to hear my first language in a GoPro video!

i don't know what to say, this is just beautiful

Switzerland! Love my country

This. Is. Epic...

Wow. Amazing. Beautiful views.

Must be an amazing trip!

Loved the video...although you should have highlighted all the participants. They all are great athletes and wonderful pilots.

This thing flies everywhere !

That's one of the coolest thing I've seen recently. Perfect.

This is so wild! Do these guys sleep during the hiking parts of the trip? I mean, it took just under 7 days to complete. They have to get some sleep in, right!?

Pause The Moment They had a forced 6 hour rest period (11pm-5am) every night this year, increased from previous 4 hour rule, with one overnight pass available for each competitor.

If they would add shooting to this event it could be in the Olympics! Truly fantastic!!!

I am totally going to try to do that race one day !

So cool! I don't think most people have any idea of the intensity of this event. Easily rivals all others...

google "paragliding for beginners" or "starting paragliding" or something to that affect, and start working on your endurance abilities... like a lot! Going to probably need to become a decently experienced paraglider considering that if faced with challenges on the race like inclement weather or gear failure, you will need be able to handle it or risk an accident. Basic camping and/or mountaineering experience wouldn't hurt either.

At 2:40 minute where is it located? The spot, the photo. If someone can tell me the exact location! Thanks!!

What part did the gopro play in this?

minute 5:33, How do you stick your GoPro up there?????

Bucket list

Wow
