Watch | Daredevils use wingsuits to fly close to French glacier

Daredevils wearing wing suits flew over the Alps in Chamonix, on September 3, on what they said was a new route over the Bossons Glacier. Footage from the stunt showed XDubai athletes Noah Bahnson and Vince Reffet flying close to the mountain sides.

They are shown jumping off from the top of the Aiguille du Midi mountain which is 3842 metres (12, 605 feet) high. XDubai's Athlete Marketing Manager Morgan Carlson said one route shown in the video over the Bossons Glacier had never been done before.

Since being posted online on October 28, the video has been viewed more than 250,000 times. XDubai says it plans to carry out further daring wing suit projects in the future, using top athletes.
