climbingVideos

A few days ago, the German alpinist Fabi Buhl flew from the summit of Cerro Torre in Patagonia with his paraglider. Now he publishes a video of his flight.

When walking the route Ragni on Cerro Torre wore around two weeks Fabi Buhl a paraglider in my luggage. After a night in the bivouac, he then took off from the summit of Cerro Torre for an impressive flight down to the Torre glacier. The following video shows pictures of the inspection and the flight.
