People are fascinated about the world above them because it seems so out-of-reach.

I started skydiving because I loved the idea of freedom.

I have a lot of fears that normal people have.

Let me tell you - when I was standing there on top of the world, you become so humble. You don't think about breaking records anymore, you don't think about gaining scientific data - the only thing that you want is to come back alive.

I always feel the danger because you might always be subject to an unexpected or emergency event.

As a little kid, I climbed a lot of trees because I always loved the bird's-eye view.
