Sky High

PRODUCER: Macaela VanderMost


Sky High is an original documentary based on the life of Jarrett Martin, a skydiving
paraplegic. Jarrett started skydiving when he was nine. At sixteen, he had almost 1,000 dives and 20 base jumps under his belt. A tragic base-jumping accident in Hawaii left Jarrett paralyzed from his chest down when he was only eighteen. Now 20 years old and in a wheelchair, he continues to live an adrenaline-fueled life.

This year, Jarrett is competing in a prestigious national skydiving competition and is also on track to obtaining his degree in air traffic control. Hours of helmet-camera footage provide a first hand point of
view of his most memorable jumps, including uncut footage of his life-altering accident. This combined
with cinematic style footage shot by Newfangled, Sky High promises a raw & beautiful look at his life and the sport of skydiving.
