A brave base jumper launches himself into a cloudy abyss from a 150-metre high radio tower in Switzerland.<br /><br />The man, who goes by BASEWEEKLY on YouTube, records himself scaling the radio tower with a GoPro attached to his helmet before climbing onto the roof of the building where he becomes surrounded by thick fog.<br /><br />The base jumper then cries out "send it" before launching himself into the cloudy abyss where he then lands in a nearby cornfield.<br /><br />He told Newsflare: "I was road tripping around Europe and found this awesome decommission AM radio antenna.<br /><br />"I knew it would be foggy at the top but was confident I would have visibility for landing. It was pretty cold and my hands were freezing, I was wishing I had my gloves but could find them in the messy car before I started.<br /><br />"I geared up in the room at the 150-metre mark and decided to run off the roof rather than climbing the extra 60 metres to the top.<br /><br />"Falling through the fog, everything was white and I couldn’t see the ground so I counted in my head and pulled the parachute with plenty of time to set up the landing.<br /><br />"There was a headwind when I came into land which nearly put me in the cornfield but I just made it."<br /><br />This footage was filmed on August 27.
