Go on a thrilling journey through the world of base jumping in the exhilarating Nat Geo documentary Fly airing Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET.
When you think of a National Geographic documentary called Fly, it would be reasonable to think this is somehow focused on nature or the anatomy of an insect. But alas this documentary looks into a world where humans can fly. Directors Shaul Schwarz and Christina Clusiau want to ask viewers “What if the very thing that fuels you could also be your downfall?” It is a tough question for any of us trying to find our path in life, but it becomes something quite different when your life is literally on the line. That is because of the keen focus on this exhilarating topic of base jumping.

If you are standing on the edge of a cliff with the intention of jumping off, no matter what is strapped to your back to break your fall, you have to accept every time that this may be your last. There are very few times that humans can actually experience the act of flying themselves. To be honest very few of us will even think about attempting these miraculous feats. In many ways, this documentary is the closest any of us will get to actual human flight. Watching the trailer alone is a thrill. You’re not going to want to miss the full-feature getting into the mindset of these base jumpers and what would compel them to do these things.
This documentary explores the journey of three couples enjoying this lifestyle, including Jimmy and Marta who are pioneers in this industry. They have dedicated much of their lives to teaching this sport and trying to make it safer. Tuning in alone is worth it to see how base jumping brings these people together through incredible hardships.
