Bangkok, Thailand, April 1, 2026 / TRAVELINDEX / lebua Bangkok, the world-renowned destination for vertical activities, set a historic milestone for Thailand as the setting for the very first wingsuit jump in Bangkok in collaboration with Red Bull and the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT).

This extraordinary feat was accomplished by renowned wingsuit pilot Miles Daisher and drew worldwide attention to the Bangkok skyline, while simultaneously highlighting the city's rise to a destination for world-class experiences.

Daisher jumped from a plane high above the city and sped across the Bangkok skyline at speeds of up to 260 km/h, passing lebua Bangkok – home to the iconic golden dome and celebrated Sky Bar and Sirocco – before landing precisely on a cruise ship along the Chao Phraya River.

The lebua Bangkok was chosen as the central location for this project among Bangkok's most famous skyscraper landmarks – underlining its status as one of the city's most well-known and respected destinations.

This historic achievement was made possible through the collaboration between Red Bull, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) and lebua Bangkok, and reflects a shared vision to push boundaries and present Thailand in a bold, contemporary light.

“As the world’s first vertical destination, we have always believed that extraordinary experiences deserve an extraordinary stage,” said Narawadee Bualert, President and CEO of lebua Bangkok. “This collaboration proves that lebua is not just part of Bangkok’s skyline, but the place where the world’s most legendary moments happen.”

For Daisher, the experience was equally unforgettable. “Flying via lebua Bangkok was a dream come true,” he said. “This historic achievement was a shared triumph, and the support from the Tourism Authority of Thailand, the local authorities, and my Red Bull family was simply amazing.”

This groundbreaking collaboration not only showcases the possibilities of extreme sports in an urban environment, but also strengthens lebua Bangkok's position as a destination where globally significant moments take place – complemented by its award-winning gastronomy and first-class bars high above the city.
