BillyVance 34 #1 August 12, 2006 Just started watching Stunt Junkies on Discovery. They're gonna do a jump out of a helicopter over the ocean and swoop a 8' X 9' shark cage, with live sharks swimming around outside of it... they're nuts...

BillyVance 34 #9 August 12, 2006 Since this thread was a repost, here's another repost: I happened to see, for the first time, dropzone.com's own Laurel of Gold Coast Skydivers featured on The Learning Channel's "While You Were Out" show getting her shiny steel trailer re-done for her husband William. Yeah, it was a rerun, I remember Laurel mentioning it on here months ago, but I missed the original airing. Pretty neat...

NWFlyer 2 #13 August 12, 2006 QuoteI still don't understand why they called that "Lowest" BASE jump. I've seen pics of lower ones posted on here. It was the Lowest BASE jump done by a German with a motorcycle and a rocket-powered pilot chute launcher. If I had a rocket launcher ...

AggieDave 6 #16 August 12, 2006 Quote Kinda? That dude was freaked OUT! If you've been a jumper for any amount of time you've seen that look before on a jumper. Its the "I should be dead, but god smiles on drunks, children and idiot skydivers" so I made it through completely fine.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

JohnRich 4 #20 August 12, 2006 QuoteJust started watching Stunt Junkies on Discovery. They're gonna do a jump out of a helicopter over the ocean and swoop a 8' X 9' shark cage, with live sharks swimming around outside of it... Notice how you never see footage of the sharks and the skydiver at the same time. I think the two types of footage were filmed separately, and then interspersed together for drama. I don't think that swarm of sharks was actually around the shark cage when he did his "accuracy" landing into it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At the very end there is an underwater shot of the sharks and the canopy in the water, of course THAT to could have been 'sequenced' so to speak. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Duckwater 0 #24 August 13, 2006 Contrary to what most people say, the most dangerous animal in the world is not the lion or the tiger or even the elephant. It's a shark riding on an elephant's back, just trampling and eating everything they see. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
