R.I.P Antoine Montant

By BRIAN on October 26, 2011

The body of daredevil skier, BASE jumper and speed flying champion Antoine Montant was found Sunday in the French Alps, a day after his girlfriend had reported him missing.

The Frenchman clearly enjoyed life to its fullest. He was the national acrobatic paragliding champion from 2006 to 2008. He was first to combine acrobatic paragliding and BASE jumping and made what's still a record 120 tumbles while paragliding.
