Ashes Away: Base Jumpers Celebrate Friend’s Life

22:00 GMT 05.10.2017 (Updated: 17:06 GMT 06.10.2017)

The best way to commemorate someone is by doing something they loved.

Organized by Chris McDougall, a 41-year-old professional base jumper, this 22-man jump from a Norway waterfall acts as not only a tribute, but also a release of their friend's ashes. Rather than mourn the 2011 incident that claimed their pal, the jumpers take a proactive measure and express their grief by doing exactly what their friend loved: base jumping.
