Fear Factor Skydive?

Recommended Posts

which ever one that was in Cutaway i think has his A, don't quote me on that though. I mean i don't know if his solo scenes were stunt doubles or just sound stage stuff with a big wind machine.

It is steven baldwin, and yes he does have his A lic. Durring the making of "cutaway" he did over 50 skydives to get the shots they needed for the movie!! He also has over 4 hrs in the windtunnel at fort bragg!! He said said he wishes he had more time to jump but he does jump enough to stay current..........Soryy, I watche dhis comentary on the movie!! SAtill ya gotta respect the guy somewhat...I mean yeah a lot of actors have went on tandems and stuff abut how many are actually skydivers....even if there acting leaves little to be desired!!

He and Tom Baringer did learn how to skydive. Do they still do it...I do not know? Other actors who skydive? Jon Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston are current, Tom Cruise has but I do not know if he still does. I am not talking tandem but they actually learned the sport.

Hey Lazer...did you watch the DVD with his voice (and that hot chics) dubbed over the movie? I did and it was pretty funny listening him hit on here and she was pretty much blowing him off. Bwhhaha!! Good movie though. And that really hot girl went and learned as well. (I think she was on a Maxim mag once and is Xtreme Hot).

Add Patrick Swayze to the list too. He and his brother Don skydived at Perris!

A friend said he ran into the brother at some DZ and that he had two sets of brand new everything. True?
Just take it one day at a time, like the drunks do.

Jon Travolta

So can we expect his next blockbuster to be
"Battlefield Perris" or "Prop Fiction"? ;)
They had a preview for some flick called, "Clock Stoppers" before "Time Machine" this past weekend, all I could think was, "I can see that getting turned into a porn title real quick." Any takers? :)

I've jumped with Don, although he makes a poor role model for new star-struck jumpers - he screwed up his foot on a BASE jump, then jumped too soon after that, and screwed it up again so badly they had to amputate part of it.
>Ok ...this is very important...you HAVE to get close to him so you can get his trade secret 4 min freefall from 4000ft!!!
You know, I've put together videos of big-ways with 3 or 4 angles (including a belly mount) that lasted over 2 minutes. No one's ever asked _me_ how I freefall for so long!

True...he did fracture his foot, but that's not what caused his amputation. He developed Osteomyelitis (bone infection) that just wouldn't clear. After battling that for years, he finally gave up the fight and told the doc to cut it off. What a nightmare!
