Birdmen: The Original Dream of Human Flight (2012)

Birdman is a documentary about human beings pursuing the dream of flying. For the past 2000 years, human beings have been looking up at the sky and dreaming of flying freely like birds. Now, with the help of low-altitude parachuting wind suits and long-term training, mankind has finally realized its dream of flying, but it is still dangerous and fatal, and even the best athletes may pay the price of their lives. "Birdman" shows the process of people chasing their dream of flying from ancient times to modern society. The stunt that once jumped from the Eiffel Tower has become the reality of today's extreme flight, flying in the mountains at a speed of 150 miles per hour, with tree tips palpable. In 2012, some of the world's best low-altitude flight instructors came to the Alps in their newly developed flight suits, hoping to experience the fun of flying freely in the mountains. But even the most experienced flier can't meet all the challenges in nature, even if he is the developer of the flight suit and the best pilot. But death never stops people from chasing their dreams of flying, whether in the past, in the present or in the future.
