On day in heaven

Yesterday I had to do a feature for the Red Bull TV Magazine in Ireland. They wanted to know where my favourite place to "chill out" is! So I took them to the event resort "Scalaria" @ the St. Wolfgang lake!




This place is amazing...




I had to bring the camera guy first then fly back to Salzburg to pick up the Host of the show...




...finally we are all there!!:) looks like I need a bigger helicopter ;)




...Umberto the manager is well known for hospitality...




... Reservation for Mr. Baumgartner!- and check out the RB Stratos logo on the napkin... That's what I call attention to details!!!




...you cant beat that....




... Sunset at the end of the day
Thanx to Umberto and Peter for having a great time!!!

Shooter

One of my favourite hobbys is shooting! A friend of mine who works as a body guard knows how to protect life!
I love the drill and the competition which is involved in combat shooting!!







... My Beretta F92 and my Smith and Wesson 44 Magnum

Working with the PRO's

Before I am able to fly helicopter with a long line I have to do a lot of ground work in order to understand how difficult and dangerous it is!!
Therefore I've spent the whole day to work with the best of the best! Toni Rainer took me on a tour to several mountains to
"listen & learn"!!!




...exposed landing areas wherever you go!!




...in the middle of nowhere somewhere in Austria!




...Toni is doing his job,




...and his crew as well!




... just watching the guy's get's you really hungry:)




... What a great day! Thanx for that amazing trip, next time I'll give it a try!!!

Back in Austria after a lot of under the radar testing for Red Bull Stratos. That's also the reason why I couldn't post anything!! Sorry guys!

After all the pressure it was time to party! Best way- is going to Saalbach Hinterglemm to the "Biker Mania"
A "must" event for everybody who loves Harleys, Dragstars, Noise and naked Girls. My friend Floh and his Dad came up with the idea years ago and it's not for " girlys"

This is Urs from Switzerland on the right side. 4 times European Champion in dragstar racing




And me on on of his "boy toy's"
Urs told me I have to wear a bullet proof jacket if I wanna ride that bike!! Just in case if the engine blows up!!!- no shit!!




...another boy toy! 8000 horse power strong and over 500 km/h fast in less than 5 seconds! That is impressiv!!




...let me take a seat!!




Can't imagine what will happen if I floor the pedal:)







Okay, that was our program during the day now I have to walk over to the party area and prepare for the night!!!
See ya in 2 hours...
