Well, I jumped for the first time when I was 16. I just loved it and immediately realized that it was what I wanted to do.

Extreme sport has only ever been about goals and the ways to achieve these goals. Adrenaline plays a part, but it's never in the foreground.

I once wanted to be a stuntman. I was constantly on the front pages when I was a base jumper. But if I were a stuntman, my name would only appear right at the end of the closing credits, even though I'd risked my life for others.

I can't bear the thought of my mother having to push me around in a wheelchair. I'd rather die quickly.

Engage your life with enthusiasm; grasp your life aggressively and squeeze from it every drop of excitement, satisfaction, and joy.

If something goes wrong, the only thing that might help you is God.

I have a lot of fears that normal people have.
