The Scottish wings wing bulletin dies during the Swiss Alps jump

A Scottish wing bulletin died during a jump in the Swiss Alps.

British champion Liam Bern, 24, was seriously injured in Mount Gitch.

Mr. Bern, from Stewhanhane, Aberinachire, appeared in a 2024 BBC documentary called The boy who can fly.

It was described as a wing bulletin with great experience – a type of jumping with umbrellas that includes wearing a special suit with a belt to allow the lifting of the air – and completed more than 4000 jumps during his ten career.

“I think I was thirteen years of age when I told my father that I wanted to learn to fly like a bird,” said Mr. Bern.

He explained: “Even at school, I was staring at the window in the seagulls that fly and always feel this feeling of envy that they have this freedom to take off and fly away.

“I don’t wonder why I love flying a lot? My mind may be different wireless to others, I may deal with fear differently.

“But I know myself well enough to know that the office’s job scares me a lot of fear of death from a base jump or a wing journey.”

Bern said, regardless of his safety in making this sport, he thought about his family’s concern.

He told documentary films that the preparation was a key to safety.

“I spent the past decade in training to increase skills and reduce any risk.

“For me, I am about to be the reckless adrenaline addict as possible. The preparation has always been at the heart of all my challenges. The more I prepare, the more control.”

Mr. Bern took to extremist sport from an early age. At 12 o’clock, Mount Kilimanaro, a peak in Tanzania, is an African, with a height of 5895 meters (19341 feet).

That adventure led to the transition from dogs through the Arctic, diving and climbing the multiple large summit.

At the age of sixteen, he took his first sky, and by 18 years, he withdrew my wing suit, which he described as “a second skin, which allowed me to move across the air in a controlled manner.”

The parents of Mr. Bern, Mike and Jelian, confirmed to the BBC Scotland News that their son had died.

A family statement said: “We would like to remember Liam not only the way in which this world left, but how he lived in it.

“Liam was afraid, not necessarily because he was not afraid, but because he refused to let the fear hinder him. He repelled life in a way that most of us dreamed of only.

“Parachis and basic jumping were more than just an excitement – it was freedom. It was the place where he felt life.”

“Liam was more than just an adventurer. He was a son, brother, grandson, cousin and friend. He was a source of laughter and strength.

“We all inspired and made life better with his bold spirit and a gentle heart. We will miss the land of Liam’s wild and infectious laughter.

“Although he has now flew out of our reach, he will always be with us.”

The BBC documentary was distinguished by Mike, a builder and former commander in the British army.

In the emotional scene, his son watches a training leap and says, “I have already buried him 10 times in my head.”

But Mr. Bern Senner went on to say that he knew that jumping in Joy and Winjz gave Liam.

“He was an amazing child – anything I suggested to be awake. I was greatly inspired by him. I hope to be like him.”

The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) confirmed that it supports the family of a British man who died in Switzerland.
