Did those guys just jump for movies or do they still jump? What dropzone? How often? Jump numbers?

Stephen Baldwin and Tom Berenger both got their A licenses while filming "Cutaway." They did some of their own jumps in the movie.

Nicole Kidman reportedly jumps to help with a drug problem (to replace drugs with jumping) I heard she got her A license as well... Tom Cruis supposedly took it up so he could experience it with her. I'm not sure of his experience.

Dated a few freeflyers out there.

Also, the cute girl from Dead Poet's Society (Alex Powers) was a regular.

Yeah, the guitar player from Diamond Rio jumps.

If they have a concert in your area, listen to the radio, since he usually does a promotional thing where he comes and jumps with a contest winner (the winner does a tandem).

I jumped with him when they did a concert in ABQ. It was too windy for tandems, but he still wanted to jump. Really great guy, has 700 jumps or so.

Actually, if I remember the commentary on Cutaway correctly, Dennis Rodman never actually jumped. He was too scared :D



Incidentally, NBA players are not allowed to skydive, per contract. So if he was still playin back then, he wouldn't have been able to jump anyway...which kinda sucks for all them, quick, someone give them all $20million to calm them down. ;)

The FAKE KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!
