听力原文It's the adrenaline rush that draws these daredevils in. Their hearts bracing until the parachute opens--the lower the rock, the higher the risk.

Twenty five are taken up the 350-meter mountain, and there is only one way down. Norway's coastline is formed of fjords, deep grooves cut into the land, flooded by the sea, following the end of the ice age. Some of the world's steepest slopes, many just sheer drops, make this perfect terrain for base jumpers. They’re jumping into the fjord next to Gudvangen. It takes years of practices as a sky diver before you can base jump. And at a location like this, only the most experienced base jumpers are allowed. Because of the low height of the jump, there is no backup parachute, so anything can happen.

Yeah, I'm really happy with this jump, we all did a good job, especially Mallisa, but when we were hanging in the chute up in the valley, it was a bit windy, so we just have to land on the other fields, off on there or so, but Norway is still part of the game.

For Germans C. and L., the best way to explore Norway is by road. They have hired a camper van, and they're getting to know the spectacular fjords and glaciers of Southwest Norway. They are on their way to Briskdal, a valley that lies in the heart of fjord region. It's home to some of Norway's most spectacular scenery and it's easily accessible, making it one of the most popular tourist spots in the country. Their guide O.F. is driving an old trod car, one of only 15 in existence. It can just about 5 kilometers per hour. The trails are heading to one of the most famous attractions in Norway, the massive glacier Briskdalbreen. Visitors can get a little wet along the way.
