Another great video courtesy of the Adventure Journal today. This one features BASE jumper Mario Richards as he leaps from a cliff called Dragon’s Nest, located near Moab, Utah, then proceeds to fly through the area and land on top of King Fisher, a nearby rock tower. After being greeted and congratulated by friends, who caught the landing on video as well, Mario then proceeds to make a second jump from the top of the tower. All along, we’re treated to some great views of the stunning landscape.
