[Mo0o]

Hopefully Darwin will work his magic soon

 

[Anubis]

man i was hoping for some splat

 

[b0mbrman]

God...why? I just don't get some people...I'm not sure why, but I think I hate that guy

[Edit] And yes, I've parachuted out of planes before...

 

[Siva]

wow, that was pretty cool

 

[Aimster]

my stomach ... that was crazy

 

[Wanescotting]

what a tool

 

[Calin]

Oh, no - not again...

 

[jagec]

wow, that's insane. I admit I don't know much about skydiving, but wouldn't it be VERY hard to hang on to the parachute if you deploy it when it's not strapped on to your back?

 

[ctcsoft]

some people just have to push things to the extreme.

I never have sky dived before but I think it'd be cool thing to do. with a parachute attached of course.

[PatboyX]

i like tom petty as much as the next guy...but please


also: it seems like the idea is that the one guy could catch up to him if he were to drop it. correct? i dont dive.

I was half expecting/hoping he would let go and fall. Does that make me a bad person?

 

[thirdlegstump]

That's totally awesome.

 

[TipsyMcStagger]

did he have the parachute chained to his wrist?

Nope, I was hoping for the same thing. One less idiot on Earth.

I was too. Don't worry. It'll happen soon enough.

 

[Koing]

It looks like he has the strap bit wraped around his wrists? If so it isn't that bad. Just the impact of the chute deploying but it may be possible to hold on to it?

Looks cool.

They shouldn't have cut away when he was getting his feet in to the shoot.

i would think so...i would like to skydive...but i would like to be attached to the parachute...

 

[dr150]

He has a strap attached to his wrist. If the pack slips, it ain't going nowhere b/c it's attached.


........I'm sure they also took extra precautions with cameraman or friend "riding" nearby with a spare pack in case of a potential FUBAR.

 

[GoingUp]

i want to know how he gets back up from the handstand to hold back on... that idiot is gonna die some day.

 

[Riddleman]

dudes got big cojones.
