South African Pierre Carter is an unassuming man. He enjoys spending time with his wife and daughter, their four dogs in tow. But beneath this calm exterior is a man with an appetite for danger. So much so that he set off on the adventure of a lifetime to the Himalayaโ€™s, not only to climb Mount Everest, but to fly off it. The Springbok paraglider perched about 800 metres below the summit of the worldโ€™s highest peak and took the terrifying leap, successfully landing and making history. But Pierre isnโ€™t done yet. Carte Blanche takes flight with the first man to legally paraglide off Mount Everest.
