Two daredevil BASE jumpers, Dani Roman and Fred Fugen, used a custom-built human catapult inside a 360-meter tall chimney in Slovenia to set two Guinness World Records for vertical mechanical launches. Accelerating from zero to 180 km/h in just 2.15 seconds, they reached heights of over 100 meters, achieving the highest altitude and combined altitude records for human catapult launches.
