Antithesis 0 #53 February 16, 2004 Who cares about "them' though? That kind of jumping is expensive. I would rather someone else pays for it than I do. I can respect your point of view here But I look at it like this .. Hmmm what to do tonight?? go do do "paid" ski base jumps off a cliff in New Zealand Naah, I'll just stay home with my dick in my hand and watch someone do those jumps on telivision and call them a sell out I travel the land, Work in the ocean, Play in the sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #54 February 16, 2004 QuoteNaah, I'll just stay home with my dick in my hand and watch someone do those jumps on telivision and call them a sell out Well, honestly, if I was sitting around with my dick in my hand I can promise you that I wouldn't be farting around on this site. There are MUCH better boobies out there then what has been posted here for me to look at while I concentrate on...well, the matters at hand.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

jmpnkramer 0 #56 February 16, 2004 QuoteTHEY HAVE SHARED EXPERIENCES AND BONDED AS ONLY AN EXTREME TRIBE SCRIPTED CAST CAN!!! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hear ya guy. I am not sure I would be a good enough actor. Now if I got to act the way I naturally do; then the show would be a hit. Just film me in raw form. I guarantee it would be the funiest shit ever. Hell, just filming my life would be one great show. Just ask the people who have known me and some of my unusual experiences. Laters, .The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER! "HESITATION CAUSES DEATH!!!"

LouDiamond 1 #57 February 16, 2004 All I can say is that this was a waste of some major money on the sponsors part. The only one who impressed me was Kaleen with her snowboarding. All the other "events" were marginal at best and I know there are people here on DZ.com that could of represented those particular disciplines better than that group. Which also brings up the fact that they pretty much perpetuated the "crazy skydiver" with some of their comments. I don't know any of those involved and I'm sure they are great guys and all but they have come off as totaly irresponsible . My bet is Miles really is the guy Sean Penn played in Fast times at Ridgemont high. I think they tried to make this like a reality/ extreme sports show which took away from it. I think it's safe to say there won't be too many more if any of these episodes. One other thing I found disturbing is the blowing up of the vehicle. As someone who blows things up as part of my living I can tell you the group of people were too close to that explosion even if they stripped the vehicle down. That was probably the most dangerous part of the show IMO. My hat is off to the guides and support people who obviously busted their asses for those guys. I won't EVEN comment on the wingsuit jumps[eye roll] Edit to add: I am glad I watched it because now I know there will be a marathon of American Chopper in the morning"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LouDiamond 1 #71 February 16, 2004 QuoteC'Mon Lou!!!!!!!!!!!!! I know you can show us some really good formations as well. Just ask the people who were on the sunset flocking dives at the Eloy boogie. We had the largest flock(16 if I remember correctly) with a guy who was on his 3rd Birdman jump as the base and just about everyone made it in on it. According to the show where 5 people is hard, that must of been LUDICROUSLY difficult LOL"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
