Apparently Sean Leary has died while BASE jumping.

A film about he, Leo Houlding and others attempting a new route in Antarctica is part of the Banff Mountain Film Festival - Australia.

There's a story on Supertopo founder Chris MacNamara's FB page.

That's really sad. I saw a film about him dedicating a route to his girlfriend who died in a car accident with him. Depending on your view of things, he might well be with her wingsuiting forever. What a blow for everyone who knew & loved him - he sure seemed loveable from the films I've seen him in.
