Daisher\u2019s latest feat signals an exciting new era for Thailand, highlighting the country\u2019s emerging potential as a premier destination for adventure sports.<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n The city skyline of Thailand\u2019s capital city was the perfect backdrop for this historical pursuit. Daisher leapt from a plane high above the city, soaring past the famous lebua Bangkok, an iconic location in Bangkok featured in the Hollywood hit, \u201cThe Hangover: Part II.\u201d The hotel is also known for the Sky Bar & Sirocco, whose gold dome is seen from anywhere across the city. He then landed with pinpoint accuracy on a moving cruise along the Chao Phraya River. The spectacular feat offered a jaw-dropping perspective of Bangkok\u2019s stunning views, which will surely wow both local and international crowds.<\/span><\/p>\n “To me, Thailand is a BASE jumper\u2019s paradise, and performing this inaugural flight required an open-minded city\u2019s perspective to allow us to do this kind of thing,\u201d said Daisher of his momentous leap. \u201cUrban environments are unique because the wind gets funky around the buildings, creating turbulent air and eddies similar to a rock in a river. Because Bangkok is such a busy city with a lot of congestion, we had to dive to build speed and then flatten our trajectory to ensure we made the distance to the river. We were so focused on sticking the shot and ultimately landed with precision on the boat,\u201d he added.<\/span><\/p>\n First Wingsuit Flight Bangkok<\/a>\u00a0(Instagram\u00a0Website Embed Code<\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n The historic achievement was made possible through a collaboration between the European energy drink brand Red Bull (Blue & Silver) and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT), a partnership grounded in respect for the country\u2019s culture and natural beauty. More than pushing the boundaries of extreme sports in Southeast Asia, the project showcased Thailand as a world-class destination for adventure.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe idea for the first-ever wingsuit jump came about through a shared vision of \u2018pushing boundaries,\u2019\u201d said Nithee Seeprae, Deputy Governor for Marketing Communications at the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT). \u201cBy taking a sport usually reserved for remote mountains and bringing it to the heart of our urban skyline, we created a visual metaphor for Thailand’s evolution: a destination that respects its heritage but remains fearless about the future.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cAs the world\u2019s first vertical destination, we have always believed that extraordinary experiences deserve an extraordinary stage,\u201d said Narawadee Bualert, President & CEO of lebua Bangkok. \u201cThis collaboration is proof that lebua is not just part of Bangkok\u2019s skyline; it is where the world\u2019s most iconic moments choose to land.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Photo Credit: Yosayoot Wiengviset \/ Red Bull Content Pool<\/span><\/p>\n For Daisher, this first-ever wingsuit flight over Thailand\u2019s bustling capital was more than just another record. The country holds a deep personal significance for the veteran athlete, rooted in his first visit to Southeast Asia with his wife, Nikki.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe first time I ever came to Southeast Asia was to Thailand with my wife, and she was pregnant with our daughter at the time. It has always held a special place in my heart, and to return now to fly past these buildings was a dream come true,\u201d said Daisher. \u201cBetween the incredible architecture, the food, and the friendly culture, this country is a BASE jumper\u2019s paradise. It was an honor to finally find the right time and place to share this party in the sky with the world.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n From Hollywood Stunts to Global World Records<\/span><\/p>\n Daisher is one of the most prolific aerial athletes in history with\u00a0over 12,000\u00a0successful jumps to his name. His elite precision has made him one of the go-to action stuntmen in Hollywood. He is credited with personally coaching and training Tom Cruise for the historic motorcycle BASE jump in\u00a0Mission: Impossible \u2013 Dead Reckoning\u00a0and performed the iconic “Barrel of Monkeys” mid-air rescue in Marvel\u2019s\u00a0Iron Man 3. Beyond his stunt work in films like\u00a0Human Flight 3D, Daisher is a serial record breaker who cemented his legacy in 2017 by completing a world record 63 BASE jumps in a single 24 hour period.<\/span><\/p>\n Photo Credit: Yosayoot Wiengviset \/ Red Bull Content Pool<\/span><\/p>\n Looking Beyond the Skyline<\/span><\/p>\n Fresh off his epic, history-making flight over Bangkok, Daisher shows no signs of slowing down. The Red Bull Air Force athlete claims this is only the beginning of his adventure in the country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “To actually fly past the lebua Bangkok was a dream come true, especially being a huge fan of The Hangover movie. I was just picturing those guys having that conversation on the stairs as we flew by,\u201d said Daisher when asked about his most memorable moment. “This historic feat was a collaborative triumph, and the support from the Tourism Authority of Thailand, local authorities, and my Red Bull family was everything. I can’t say thank you enough for the opportunity to share our dreams with the world.”<\/span><\/p>\n \n \n Aside from cementing his position in history, Daisher\u2019s Bangkok flight has opened a new chapter in extreme sports for the Southeast Asian region. It serves as an invitation for travelers and thrill-seekers like Daisher to chase their own adventures across Thailand\u2019s stunning terrain.<\/span><\/p>\n Photo Credit: Daniel Deak Bardos \/ Red Bull Content Pool<\/span><\/p>\n Watch Miles Daisher\u2019s historic first-ever wingsuit flight through Bangkok now on Red Bull\u2019s official social media pages (TikTok<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0Facebook<\/a>) and its\u00a0website<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n Learn more about Miles Daisher\u00a0HERE<\/a>\u00a0and relive some of past jumps below:<\/span><\/p>\n Petra Treasury BASE jump<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n WakeBASE Dubai<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/div>\nSoaring to New Heights in Bangkok<\/div>\n![](\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXdAZP5otsHiwGxF7ymoKeYeW7EWNkjuzp6AdSJv4XF0zSTqrJxeH9qY_SSIhIYiBLS4CGh18gHa2lKbuHRoBRi9uzfX3KBELx35h2yuvHl_CSxpV9ABNfq83eZmYDo_JPcV4DnU9GluBBgYIRbdFw?key=8COoWPUgdqn74OR39Ws4Bg\")

Driven by a pursuit of extreme adventure, Daisher is already eyeing his next chapter to showcase the country\u2019s diversity.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n“I want to keep exploring! You see all those sea cliffs on the beaches that just stick straight up out of the water? That\u2019s where I want to go next. I want to go back to Railay Beach and Tonsai, check out those rocks, and really dial in a new project there.”<\/div>\n![](\"https:\/\/lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com\/docsz\/AD_4nXfUMdIRWiAt1kHlTHKH79jwzd88foxNXi7jw9peX1BfKZU1iSBdAOpGa0HUkQeoBxY3KqoFwQwF6ngzWj0dU9XCKJGfdn0eglh0JdwsYrk7cmpbXCYZe61_Ja0pSBn1f36usTUwsWtUTzH3TsVb5QE?key=8COoWPUgdqn74OR39Ws4Bg\")
