Alex Villar practiced BASE jumping, the most dangerous sport in the world -445 athletes have died practicing it- in its most risky version: Wingsuit Proximity, which consists of flying with a wingsuit close to the faces and crests of mountains, passing through natural holes, with no margin for error. A few months ago, he miraculously survived a spectacular accident. The accident, the aftermath and the recovery are on camera. Now, Alex has set a new challenge – follow in the footsteps of the sadly deceased sport’s legendary figure Valery Rozov, and repeat his most memorable jump, that no one has dared to repeat since: from Kilimanjaro (5,895m). Proximity accompanies him in the achievement. Alex passed away in 2023.
