The Story

In Switzerland the crew battles a hard climbing route, rides the country's longest toboggan run, and blunders into stinging nettles hunting for crags. The heart of the episode is a return to Lauterbrunnen, where a botched early speed-flight landing broke a foot a year and a half earlier and left lasting daily pain and fear; the comeback flight goes off with a clean launch and only a soft tumble on landing.

Why we make these films

Battling Monsters is the mental health movement Jamie Leibert founded. PTSD is the monster. A wingsuit is how he manages it. Not a recovery story. A daily fight, filmed. Every film on this site is free because the people who need it most are the ones who cannot pay for it.
