National Geographic Live - The Lens of Adventure: Brian Smith, Extreme Filmaker

Filming the participants in extreme sports - solo climbing up vertical rock faces, walking along a tight rope over the Grand Canyon, base jumping off mountain peaks, kayaking through wicked rapids and down waterfalls - the photographer and crew have to be almost as crazy as the sports enthusiast. Risk takers and inventors, their creativity and drive lead to unique solutions to get that amazing shot so they can share the experience with us. The story behind how they got the story and the shot is always exciting.
