beau31duke 0 #1 March 18, 2003 I've seen the commercial for wednesdays episode of Ripley's and they keep showing video of the 300-way and of the rubberband ball. Here's what their website says: World's Largest Rubberband Ball - Tony Evans has created the world's largest rubberband ball weighing 2600 pounds and made up of six million rubberbands. In a Ripley's exclusive, the ball will be dropped 6,000 feet out of an airplane over the Kingman Arizona desert to see how high it will bounce! Skydive World Record - Three hundred skydivers from around the world will try to jump from five different airplanes at an altitude of 20,000 feet at the same time to create the world's largest group skydive. Helicopter Survivors - During the filming of the world's largest rubberband ball drop, a Ripley's helicopter crew crashed into a pair of power lines and miraculously survived. http://tbssuperstation.com/series/Episode/0,,3102,00.html Beau Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
