British champion Liam Byrne (pictured), from Aberdeenshire, died at the weekend during a jump in the Swiss Alps. We ask fellow jumper Tim Howell what motivates those in the sport – and what it’s like to jump from a cliff edge. Scotcast is the BBC’s Scottish news podcast, with Martin Geissler, Laura Miller and Natalie Higgins. Get in touch with us by emailing [email protected]
