For the Soul Flyers, two French adventure enthusiasts, jumping out of the plane was too pedestrian. Fred Fugen and Vince Reffet decided to kick things up a notch by doing a BASE jump from a mountain peak in The Alps and flying back into a plane that was flying at almost 140 km/h.
The inspiration for this daring stunt is fellow Frenchman Patrick de Gayardon. Watch the incredible stunt below:
It took two months of training and 100 test runs for the two men to pull of the "Door In the Sky" stunt.
They say the stunt was physically and mentally demanding, and concluded that managing to jump back into a flying plane was "cool, but also quite weird".
