wceviper 0 #1 November 15, 2001 What is the best Major Motion Picture Exit, Whether its from a plane or a B.A.S.E. jump? I would like to make a poll with this question, but I don't know all the movies out there. Heres what I can think of;Dropzone - after blowing the door off they bail out the back of the 747.Terminal Velocity - Driving the Cadillac out of the plane.M.I. 2 - Jumping from an exit on the bottom of a commercial jet liner (begining of movie)M.I. 2 - B.A.S.E. Jump off the lab building after blowing a hole in it.Entrapment - B.A.S.E jump down the ventalation system of Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia.Charlees Angels - Jump from the front door of the commercial airliner.Thats all I can think of, help me out.-Jasonp.s. Parachutes must be involved, we all know how many times Batman has jumped of a building only to save himself with a gadget other than a parachute.

Cacophony 0 #2 November 15, 2001 They are all good. A better question would be what is the coolest exit that you have ever done? I don't really have one so I'll get on that and let you know.Safe landings,Alex D-23912 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #3 November 15, 2001 Remember those Nest-tea commercials from a few years ago where people fell backwards with their arms out like a big T? One of the cooler exits I've done was that, falling backwards like a big T, off the ramp of a CASA.Or maybe the Pumpkin.AggieDave '02-------------Blue Skies and Gig'em Ags!BTHO t.u.

MyUserID 0 #4 November 15, 2001 You forget good 'ol Arnold in "Eraser". Totally unrealistic, but my favorite movie exit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallingILweenie 0 #5 November 15, 2001 My personal coolest exits are an 8-way tube, a 12 magic carpet ride (both out of CASA's), and once where i stood on the side of the king air completely horizontal as a friend held my hand to keep me on the plane, then when we exited i flipped him over me. blue skiesTomas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wceviper 0 #6 November 15, 2001 That is a good idea alex, but the idea here is to use an exit, from a major motion picture (Mainly becuase movies are everywhere) that alot of people have seen. I don't want to get too far off topic.-Jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strynx 0 #8 November 15, 2001 Mine is from DropZone when Swoop acts like a window washer and jumps from the plateform without telling Snipes and the girl (forgot her name). Anyways i liked the concept. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nacmacfeegle 0 #9 November 15, 2001 Point Break does it for me, any of their exits are cool, and the movie inspired me to sign up for my first jump course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strynx 0 #10 November 15, 2001 I was like 13 when i saw that and it's what inspired me too. Back then when i told my Mom i wanted to skydive and she told me i was nutts. She bought me the movie for my next birthday. :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fab 0 #12 November 15, 2001 Nice video jumpervali...what idiot placed that lantarn at that place...doesn't anybody have any consideration for base-jumpers anymore?By the way, doesn't that jumper know that standing so close in front of a high frequency antenne is hazardous to your health?

mnischalke 0 #17 November 15, 2001 I know it's just TV, but that exit on Fox's 24 last week was cool. Shape charge around the door jamb, the girl sits ten feet away on the floor, crossed arms and ankles, head tucked. Blows the door and is sucked out at 30k. No O2 or anything!! Awesome. I wish I could track like her with depleting oxygen in my lungs. Oh wait, wouldn't her lungs burst the moment the pressure dropped? Bet her ears hurt at least.mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fonz 0 #18 November 15, 2001 Quotebest Major Motion Picture ExitI particularly like that turning exit that Swoop and Bobby made in Drop Zone. That was right after Pete (Snipes) dived out to save the chick, who was hanging at the step of another plane.I tried to replicate that exit once, but it didn't work Alphonshttp://www.liacs.nl/~avwerven Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
