The Flying Frenchies Are Back and Crazier than Ever!
Do you remember Jackass movie? Of course you do - the crew of stuntmen, skateboarders and all-around lunatics performing do-not-attempt-this-at-home" pranks first appeared on MTV 15 years ago. The Flying Frenchies seems to follow similar but slightly different pattern; the main protagonists are bunch of slackliners, mountain guides and other extreme minded individuals. Although this is not their first release, you might never heard of them before as they were originally calling themselves "The Skyliners". Yep, that's right, the same crew that released a footage of the first highline between two hot air balloons that was broadcasted by numerous TVs worldwide. This time, the crew headed north and captured all the craziness on a camera from which a movie aptly called The Flying Frenchies has emerged. You must see this!!!
The Flying Frenchies master a lot of outdoor and extreme sports such as highlining, mountaineering, climbing, base jumping, wingsuiting, paragliding, speed flying, skiing and other extreme activities. Sebastien Montaz-Rosset, an award-winning producer of innovative and creative films masters filming and editing process. The result? Twenty or more of the most colorful characters you could ever imagine, heading to the fjords of Norway, each with a different skill or talent, working together to create an outdoor extravaganza the likes of which have never been seen before!
