The Dark Wizard

The Dark Wizard is a four-part HBO documentary series created by Sender Films, telling the unbelievable life story of Dean Potter, one of the world’s most influential and controversial climbers. Potter was a pioneer in free-solo rock climbing, BASE jumping, wingsuit flying and highline walking — where the consequences of a single mistake could mean certain death. The Dark Wizard is an unflinching portrait of a brilliant but tortured athlete, who was unlike anything the world had ever seen.
