Heather and Glen are a husband and wife team who have survived avalanches and government agencies to master the art of human flight.

To gain the official world record they jumped off the edge of a cliff in the Himalayas wearing wing suits.

These suits allow them to fly like a sugar glider all the way to the ground.

Glenn is also a medical doctor who is fascinated with how we cope with fear in our daily lives.
