Dean Potter an extreme athlete and very famous due to his daring and also due to his rogue climbs or sometimes famous for his BASE jumps died last year. Basically BASE jump is the reason of his death. One of our spokesmen tells us that BASE jump is the jump over the [building, antennas, span and earth] on which jumpers can parachute from. It is very difficult task which people can do.
Spokesman also told us that the odds are not in your favor and same happen with Dean that he pulled the unlucky card. Two men killed in this accident in which Dean is one of them. Dean Potter, 43. And his climbing partner Graham Hunt, 29.

He knows about the danger of BASE jumping and said that he himself watched a BASE jumper leap to her death in 1999 when her parachute failed to open and she died. He also knows that about five BASE jumping occurred in Yosemite.
His love for BASE jumping was above all and in October 2014, he wrote that [whatever you watched either on YouTube, in your real life or in glamorous commercial everything is based on reality]
