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

I was crossing the English Channel with a carbon-fiber wing on my back.

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

I feel at home up in the air, just like sailors do at sea and climbers do in the mountains.

I'm more a competitive person.

If I do something, it's always 90% obvious and 10% unknown.

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.
