About Cedric Dumont

Cedric Dumont is a wingsuit flyer, base jumper and high performance psychologist. He has been fascinated by flight all his life. He is an International Red Bull Athlete, and his partnership with the company enables him to develop challenging and exciting projects all over the world.

Cedric has completed more than 11,000 skydives and 2,500 BASE jumps, and he is constantly in pursuit of more iconic places to mark and jump from. Among his most notable jumps are a BASE jump from the Gocta Falls in Peru, the third highest waterfall in the world, a wingsuit flight over the Nazca desert in Peru, and a freefall over the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt, the “Leap of Wonder”.

Cedric’s records include the first ever BASE jump from Lithuania’s tallest structure, the 170-meter high Vilnius TV tower in 2009; the world’s highest railway bridge in Montenegro (201m); the Royal Gorge Bridge in Canon City, Colorado, the highest suspended bridge in the world (384m); and off the 431 meter-high Jin-Mao tower in Shanghai in a BASE wingsuit.

He has a degree in Applied Sports & High Performance Psychology, and has made a study of high performance athletes and how top performers create the right mental state to achieve their best; how they prepare and how they cope under pressure under the most difficult circumstances. He has coached high performance athletes.

Cedric says, “In my talks I examine questions such as: Why are some people more willing to take risks than others? Why do some constantly push the envelope of what is possible? What is “Flow” and how can I achieve it? I talk about confronting fears and overcoming them, getting out of your comfort zone and how to survive in high-pressure environments, and taking educated risks, because when you stop taking risks, you stop living life.”

Cedric is also a best-selling author of the books DARE TO JUMP & DEFY GRAVITY, host and producer of the podcast MIND SET WIN, speaker and entrepreneur.
