Jump in Santorini?

Recommended Posts

Santorini is an Island in Greece, a long long time ago there was a volcanic eruption that consumed a major part of the island, that formed quite a few escarpments, I'v never been there, but I was thinking if that would make a good place to jump? I am trying to find some pictures of the place but it's mostly tourists pictures, but have a look at this one http://www.heerenvanmalden.nl/wallpapers/santorini-kammeni_1600.html look at far back, it seems like a pretty tall, smooth wall.

Note: I am not a jumper, I was just wondering if this is possible :)
p.s. As there are no laws about base in Greece I hope this post is ok?

Some more photos here http://www.greektravel.com/greekislands/santorini/ and here http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/ef/Santorini_caldera_panorama.jpg <- big pic!

Santorini has been done.

But....

If you look at most of the pictures in the links you have provided. many of the "big walls" are sloped or stepped ledges. Doh!

The above could be crap, thought provoking, useful, or . . But not personal. You decide.

Please read the Before You Post! guidelines, linked at the top of the page.

The main reason to avoid discussing specific sites is not legality--it's safety. The potential for fatality is just as real in Greece as it is in California.

remember, the eruption that blew away a major chunk of the island created a bay. it's deep enough for cruise ships to dock and offload heaps of tourists.

oh, and all the photos show villas built into the sloping cliff face.

to heck with the JUMP, where would you land? how would you get out? how would you avoid being seen by someone in one of those villas?

sloppy habits -> sloppy jumps -> injury or worse
