Marco Fürst`s thrilling wingsuit flight through Tower Bridge highlights the excitement of wingsuit flying and competitive events.

Marco Fürst and Marco Waltenspiel made history by completing the first wingsuit flight through London’s iconic Tower Bridge. The daring duo achieved astonishing speeds of up to 153 mph (246 km/h) during their 45-second descent, which began from a helicopter at an altitude of 3,000 feet (914 meters). This remarkable feat required meticulous preparation, including over 200 practice jumps and crane training to simulate the bridge`s height.

The event was executed with all necessary permissions, ensuring safety as Tower Bridge was temporarily closed to the public. Fürst described the experience as "incredible" and a "dream come true," showcasing the thrill and excitement that wingsuit flying brings to its enthusiasts.
