maxwellman23 0 #26 August 10, 2011 I saw this and thought, "This isn't intense at ALL, this is just jumpers landing in the street." Considering my whopping 2 tandems and 2 static lines the true Intense nature of your post wasn't apparent until others commented. 10 points to you sir!I am ALIVE!

champu 1 #28 August 10, 2011 Quote>Talk about a lack of outs! Yep. I actually thought the parking lot at Pier 39 was far worse; the outs were streets with catenary power lines over them. But no one got hurt, although two people came close. (My airplane landed at Marina Green which was a piece of cake by comparison.) At the rec center center we had plenty of outs. You had your choice of rooftops or power lines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
