The Birdman of the Karakoram
-
DVD Set
Ready yourself to be thrown into the heart of a
terrifying world of extreme altitude flying that
few humans will ever experience.
On the razor sharp cutting edge of adventure
paragliding, The Birdman of the Karakoram takes
you from armchair to the most extreme flying
location on earth, when high altitude
paragliding pioneer John Silvester takes Alun
Hughes on the tandem flight to end all tandem
flights.
Supported by nothing more than a ten kilo nylon
wing and John’s uncanny paragliding skills, the
pair commit themselves deep into a remote and
hypoxic world of snow, ice and previously
unexplored terrain, where flying to survive
becomes the name of the game.
The Birdman of the Karakoram demolishes any
ideas you may have had about paragliding being
about serenely floating around the sky.
