In early 2024, One Inch Dreams Rigging executed two stunt service productions in Northern Germany and the Netherlands. Utilizing our certified industrial climbers, a slackline stunt was performed at Landschaftspark Duisburg, and a climbing challenge took place at the Excalibur Climbing Tower in Groningen, Netherlands, Europe's tallest artificial climbing tower.

Together with the Ronald Mcdonald House charity, McCafé At Home, the Keurig Dr Pepper group & Havas New York we are pleased to showcase out latest work. Conceived by Havas New York and directed and produced by Johannes Olszewski on behalf of One Inch Dreams, the campaign „More Than Just a Cup“, as well as our directors cut, aired today:

We made it possible for a German celebrity to compete in the German TV show "World Games” - on a slackline between two hot air balloons. Thanks to our sophisticated safety concept for installation & protection, Nilam was able to move safely during this flying high ropes course in the air, even without any previous highlining experience.

Together with the German Embassy in New Delhi, One Inch Dreams organised a day-long event featuring Indian and German slackliners at the Red Fort in New Delhi on February 26th 2022. The unique collaborative performance is part the Indian government’s celebrations on the 75th anniversary of India’s Independence. This open-to-all event promotes Indo-German friendship and brings together many people to enjoy adventure-sports, arts & music.

After months of preparation, Alex broke the blindfolded slackline record by walking a 1712m long highline over Cañón del Sumidero in Chiapas, Mexico. That’s nearly 500m more than the old record and more than double as long as the longest line Alex has walked with open eyes until then.

German slackline athlete Alexander Schulz has just walked across the first established highline at the Macloeods Maidens on the isle of Skye. In order to realize this feat, he and a team of international adventurers sailed all the way up from London and climbed the sea stacks.

In the midst of the Corona crisis Alexander Schulz and Rafael Bridi set a world record by walking the first slackline above an active vulcano, being sourrounded by lava bombs and ash fall during their 260m long stroll across the caldera of Mount Yasur on the remote island of Tanna.

In Monument Valley we realized an unique and long-held dream: BuildingBridges.
After the film premiere you can now watch the short film “BuildingBridges” and the documentary “Making-Of BuildingBridges” online for free.

Niklas had the rare opportunity to highline between two hot air balloons. By managing the full length he broke the world record for the highest slackline ever walked above ground.

Rigging the longest (217 m) and at the same time highest (247 m) urban highline line was almost as demanding as the walk itself, which tested Alex limits and for which he needed all his experiences.

650 meters long & 200 meters high – a storm blowing hard at 100 km/h impeded Alex from crossing the longest nylon slackline in the French Auvergne at first.

Aerial stunt with airplane pilot Kirby Chambliss and highliner Alexander Schulz on a 250 m long highline 300 meters above the sea at "Tetakawi" in Sonora, Mexico.

Epic slackline adventure on defense towers from World War II in the North Sea.

Only as a team and with lots of digging could the longest slackline of the world be realized successfully in a chinese desert.

Looking for an aesthetic urban highline we ended up in the most ugly European city. As so often Johannes was the one to keep us going. Without him this project would have never been realized.

During his first slackline trip to China Alex managed to walk a 375 m long highline and thus broke the old world record by more than 70 m.

By walking the entire 327 m long slackline over water Alex improved the record in waterlining once more.

On August 14th 2014 Alex sent a 271 m long slackline over the harbor basin of the North Sea island of Helgoland and thus gained back the world record in waterlining.

A highline between two cable cars at Zugspitze 2800 m above sea level. Walking between swinging cable cars 150 m over the glacier was a unique experience for Alexander Schulz and Niklas Winter.

On this day we rigged a 196 m long waterline over a lake and Alex could walk it just like that the first time he tried.

With this urban highline between Pfeifturm and Moritzkirche in Ingolstadt we rigged the first slackline at, respectively over, a German church.

The longest polyester slackline of the world. A bavarian meadow full of sheeps, good friends and beautiful autumn weather were the ingredients for this undertaking.

In 2012 we rigged a highline for the ski professional Felix Neureuther at the summit of "Zugspitze".
Also for us an unforgettable memory...

After having failed the first time in spring 2012, we rigged the 110-meter-long polyester highline – the longest ever rigged so far – during the First Slackline Festival at Hochkönig.

A dinner on a space line!
Find out here how this idea came about and how it was realized!

Alex realized his dream by walking the first 300-meter-long polyester slackline. Watch the pictures, the video and read the report here.

Belogradtschik, Bulgaria. Never heard of?
Then you had better read the report, plan the next holiday and travel to a true highline paradise.
