In 1992 Glenn Singleman and Nic Feteris set the world record for Altitude BASEjumping with their leap fro the 6258 metre high Great Trango Tower in Pakistan. Nic is a BASEjumper, Glenn is a climber, but both are novices at the other's sport. This is a spectacular first hand view of the preparation, dedication and sheer courage it took to do it. Featuring forrtae of Glenn and Nic's year long training program and the most awe-inspiring BASEjump ever filmed. BASEClimb was recently voted one of the top 20 Adventure Documentaries of all time by US Men's Journal.
After conquering The Great Trango Tower Glenn Singleman firmly believed that it was possible for anybody to do what he did. They simply needed commitment, determination and the ability to control their fears in the face of enormous stress. Only one person every took him up on it - his wife Heather. She had no background in adventure and suffered a near fatal accident 2 weeks into her training. Her recovery and subsequent journey to learn the necessary skills to make the world record attempt is a wonderful story - an adventure, a love story and an unlifting drama with a cliff hanger finale.
