    • Synopsis
    • There are those for whom the parameters of everyday life are not enough. Seeking thrills and adrenaline beyond the capacity of mainstream society, Life in Extremes documents three extraordinary individuals who risk everything to push their bodies and minds to the very limits: a wingsuit flyer (Halvor Angvik) leaping from cliff tops; a freediver (Guillaume Névy) who plunges 125m into the ocean; and an extreme cyclist (Gerhard Gulewicz) facing perilous conditions - all striving to reach the top of their sporting fields.

      Discover how, and why, in a world increasingly bound by regulations, these individuals seek to reignite the primal forces of fear, danger and the most instinctive of emotion of all – survival. And once these boundaries are fractured, can life as the majority of us know it, ever be the same again?

      There is no ordinary. There are no constraints. This is Life In Extremes.
