Pic of skydiver and space shuttle?

[SatchFan 0]

A buddy of mine at work told me that he has seen a pic on the internet of a skydiver in freefall with the space shuttle taking off in the background. Has anyone seen this and know where I can find it?

I don't know where to find the pic, but I thought it was in the back of parachutist a couple months back.

there are a few out there like that, I think the cover of parachutist had one on it once upon a time. I know the team formerly known as FX had a nice 4way pic with the shuttle in the background lifting off. Titusville used to routinely due shuttle launch jumps. Brian Erler (spelling) used to fly camera there a lot, and I bet he has some stills.

Here is one. There was another of someone under canopy and it is better than this. I got this from Skydive Space Centers website.

I saw one in the back of Parachutist a few months back. The skydiver wasn't in freefall it was under canopy. Realy beautiful shot though!

I haven't seen that one but here's one of Wendy Faulker in a four stack over the Great Wall of China. Backtrack down the URL to see more. There's even one of a downplane coming down over the US Capitol Building!!

Are you sure those are real?

There's several pics of them doing 4 way over national landmarks, but they all look same. Is it it just me, or are these photoshopped?

No man, it's real. Of course they all look the same. It's the same people doing all of them. You see, I was there... Look at the proof.

Dude. The Pope gets pissed when you do stacks at St. Marks.

Pointing them out is just over the top.

Check out Merlin Suits website. They are the builders of that suit and have a bunch of pics of Shuttle launches.
