I would love to do that.
"Where you came from" Is that New York talk?

That is a great video.
That guy is a madman- I think Info should make him an honorary gearhead.
:cool:

unreal..
I like how they dont just jump, gotta do a triple back flip or something, as if the jumps not enough.

I can't believe I missed that the first time. That is my favorite song.
I had to watch it again to listen. I invited Info Jr. to watch it this time. When the tune started he said " Hey, thats Metallica" LOL

When the boat thing gets boring, skydiving is IT! Try head-down at over 200 MPH! Been trying to get Squirtcha to go so we can "bond", don't think thats gonna happen! Base jumping is like a duel(gunfight), no second place winner. Night jumps are the best, as a matter of fact you can't get a "D" license from the USPA without night jumps and night relative work jumps. TIMINATOR

I still say you "meat missle" guys are half a bubble out of plumb.
I was all set to start flying for a jump zone in NM a couple years ago, but the place shut down after a jumper bounced (jumping from a visiting plane, he was doing a flip out the door and hit his head...). Since I had to wear a parachute, I was actually going to make a few jumps...

I still think that has to be one of the stupist things people do but whatever makes ya pitch a tent.
I thought it was kinda funny the guy was saying it was a sketchy exit point but then he decides to do a back flip... i guess it wasnt sketchy enough for him.

When the 9 sec. Pro-Street Nova, 7 sec Super E dragster, and 100+ mph Daytona don't get the juices flowing, then jumping is "it". My advice: do it once anyway, then you'll know. P.S. have it videoed so you can look again later.... P.S. it's like your first beer, first piece of tail,first time you were shot at, and the first car you rolled...all in the first 5 seconds out the door. Its not for everybody. TIMINATOR
