roberta mancino

[mchamp 1]

So apparently her goal is to jump off the Burj Dubai (tallest building in the world) and fly AROUND it in a wingsuit 2-3 times and then fly away and deploy!!

Next goal for her is to jump from the same plane she jumps out of and get back in the same plane

Sth like this except get back in it..!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tnACScZA66g

Watch Conan O'Brien no( she will be on again tonight in a few!

It was the usual whuffo interview questions. Roberta handled it sort of well. Conan, of course, focused on the four naked jumps she says she's done, rather than the other 6,000. She didn't mention that her proposed stunt of flying back into the jump plane in freefall has already been done. There were some good visual video clips of wingsuit base jumps, etc.

Where is she from - I was trying to figure out her accent?

John: she's Italian.

And I though the interview was cute. Wuffo-ish, but cute.

Roberta did look a little nervous (as she admitted actually...). Good job tho.

I dont understand what Jeb meant when he said "she is going to shatter what people think can be done." Meaning in a short amount of time, or what?

Ah, that would explain why she's the sexiest woman in sports.

Be humble, ask questions, listen, learn, follow the golden rule, talk when necessary, and know when to shut the fuck up.

She said she would do it head-down, which implied no wingsuit.

I don't think that has has been done without a wingsuit AND with one airplane only.

The participants thought it smarter NOT to video the activity.

She looked HOT! Yow! Even better now than in the pictures during that voting competition last year or two years ago online for the sexiest athlete. I thought the interview was done well.
