Mont Gele,3,023 m
The Mont Gele cable car station has 180 metres of drop beneath it. Its peak touches 3,023.
They jumped from here. They flew from here. They danced beneath its cable car.
Médran — where the village held the stage
While Mont Gele held the altitude, Médran held the rhythm.
Bungy Niouc suspended from a line. The Coquino Circus School children playing with the void.
And everywhere, giant screens brought the sky back to the ground. A production by MS Prod, Don't Panic Labs, and SC Visuals.
