redtwiga 0 #14 April 23, 2003 I just watched Zoolander and at the very end Owen Wilson takes a bunch of kids base jumping. Not my favorite scene, though, that would be Fandango. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fudd 0 #20 April 23, 2003 I saw Navy Seals (1990) the other day, and it had a skydiving sequence in it. Bad movie, ok skydiving. (oxygen jump with scuba gear.) Funny cutaway There are only 10 types of people in the world. Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mccordia 74 #21 April 23, 2003 Not realy a movie, but the series "The Pretender" had an episode where Jarod was pretending to be a skydive instructor. A nice episode...he even did stuff like packing a rig without looking during a conversation....not a tight packjob...but he'll live..:) Anyone know where to get fandango on video or dvd btw? Ive seen it on TV a long, LONG time ago...but didn't tape it...I'd love to own that movie... Navy Seals had some nice skyidving thrown it..albeit short and unrealistic as usual.. :) "FOR GODS' SAKE..BE CAREFULL OUT THERE!!" I also loved the flying Elvis stuff in that Nic Cage Vages film (again, unrealistic as hell...imagine your GF, not knowing your skydiving, recognize you from the ground while your a couple of thousand feet up during a night-jump...???JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?

mccordia 74 #24 April 28, 2003 Old thread already, But yesterday I caught Rambo (think it was Rambo:2, where he frees the POW from a camp) and he did a staticline jump, and got hung up on the plane....so he cut away most of his gear, the staticline broke (?) and his main deployed safely...didn't quite get it...but there was a cool 3 second shot of an actual parachute in there. On a serious note...anyone know where to get the helmet he's wearing in that jump-scene? IT ROCKS! It's basicly a 70's version of a freefly helmet or something...Wayyy cool!JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billo 0 #25 April 28, 2003 Quote James Bond's movies i just caught the opening scene of moonraker (i think) this past weekend. so bond tosses the bad guy (with rig) out of the plane, then chases after him. in the fight for the rig, you notice that bond now has goggles on that he didn't have before. so anyway, bond gets the rig. then the guy with the metal mouth comes to kick bond's ass, but somehow bond manages to not only kick him off, but also to cause a reserve malfunction.o well, it's not like any whuffo would notice! b Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
