Jumping off a thousand-foot cliff is a nightmare for some. But for Marc-André Denault, floating in the air inspires the biggest feeling of freedom. 

The Quebec base jumper holds multiple world records in wingsuit flying. 

Marc-André takes part in an extreme sports festival, Jackalope, happening this weekend in Montreal.

He spoke to Candy about why he thinks the sport is worth the risk.
