After 6 months, it happened.
From a dream Ammar had in his sleep to actually bungee jumping out of a helicopter with Will Smith.
It FREAKING happened.
Over 25,000 of you commented on his channel when we put up the challenge and it led to this. Thank YOU, YES FAM.
There are so many incredible people to thank so here they are:
The Yes Theory squad that we wouldn't be able to do any of this with, Our in-house post-production guru leader, TD @thomasdajer, our badass manager Zack @zack.thecreator and Creative Director @gracie_norton.
Andreas Hem, the best filmmaker we've ever met. He's directed, filmed and edited a lot of the footage you see here. You can find him on his incredible YouTube channel (youtube.com/andreasahem). Tell him we say hi :)
The family and friends that came with us to the jump: Colin and Samir, Helena and Fred Brag, and Tom.
Of course, thank you to Will Smith for accepting this challenge in the first place. Without him, none of this would have been possible. He is as incredible in person as he is on the screen. A true gentleman with a great heart.
Thank you to his team @WestBrook and Overbrook for helping us put this together.
Thank you to @YouTube for trusting us with this idea and organizing the whole live production.
Thank you to everyone at Fly On The Wall @flyonthewallent and our personal producer, Brian, for putting together such a smooth and outstanding event.
Thank you to the whole stunt team including TJ White @tminusproductions for keeping Ammar and Will safe throughout.
Thank you to Alfonso Ribeiro @therealalfonsoribeiro for hosting the live event so freaking well.
Thank you to Ala Stanford @dralastanford and her medical team for checking up on Ammar and Will to make sure their health was in the right condition for the stunt.
Thank you to the Navajo Nation for allowing us to do this on their land. What an honor it was to meet some of you who call this magical place home.
Thank you to @omazeworld and Global Citizen for helping us raise over $1 million for charity.

I hate how the media represented that Will did this to celebrate his birthday and not as a challenge from Yes Theory. I feel like the media didn't knowledge Yes Theory's part
-
These guys are gonna have no regrets when their 80 years old
-
Watched this again today...man is it good.
-
I love how Ammar is freaking out in the beginning about his jump but little did he know 2-3 years later he would be a licensed skydiver. We love to see that growth!!!!!!
-
Dude imagine yes theories futures kids asking what was the most craziest thing they've done and them saying helicopter bungee jumping over the Grand Canyon with will smith on his 50th birthday
-
for the people looking for when the video starts , it starts at 0:00 , watch it all , worth it.
-
Ammar is just the sweetest, most lovely young man. I hope his family comes to terms with what they've done.
-
I just binged over 4 hours of Yes Theory and this is the 5th video. Im so inspired right now and feel almost claustrophobic feeling stuck home due to covid but wanting to live an adventure
-
can’t believe a couple years ago i was watching these guys asking millionaires to have a donut with them to them now bungee jumping off a helicopter with will smith. Well done Yes Theory!
-
9:08 Ammar gives motivational speech to will smith?! Now that is how you succeed in life😂
-
"I pushed will Smith out of a helicopter" "You're hired"
-
The fact that Thomas was tearing up cuz he was scared for Ammar's life literally made me so happy. The amount of kindness and love they have for each other is insane. I wish there were more people like them on this planet.
-
watching thomas literally cry and scared for ammar's life makes me speechless... this type of friendship is gold...
-
These guys relationship is the definition of a true bond of friendship and brotherhood, I wish I had friends like them Edit: Thank you for the likes and support! I have good friends now and it’s the best feeling! Hope all of you found your people too! 🖤
-
I love how Ammar can attract the attention of Will Smith and to give one of his inspirational speeches in front of Will Smith (although brief but amazing nonetheless)
-
will smith literally flexes on them with his voice.
-
This is why Yes Theory is the best channel on YouTube🔥 Congrats on this remarkable achievement guys🙌
-
Imagine having as good of friendships as these guys
-
I´m surprised the helicopter didn´t crash from the weight of their balls
