Summit Eiger -base of the mountain, roughly 2 minutes...

Absolutely mad :shock:

(this was already in regional US but I think it deserves some more attention).

HA!
When he starts going down it's nice but when he hops over the lip of the face - I jumped back and was like "hot damn that's steep!" I like that. Thanks for sharing.

I showed this video in a presentation for my German class about the Eiger. The entire class wowed as he skiied off the edge.

Wow, that video made me move left and right as I watched it, feeling the rush of it. Quite a crazy way to get down, must really get the blood flowing. Thanks for posting it.

Yeah, the reggae works well, but I prefer to hear the wind.....
