monkycndo 0 #3 September 23, 2010 The website listed on the bottom of the video doesn't help? And we skydivers wonder why the general public think were nuts. They only see these type of "Things gone bad" on television depicting the sport.50 donations so far. Give it a try.

Hey, at least she was honest about her intentions. Besides, if the tv company, pays the guy who shot the video and the smashed up guy, he could at least get a little bit out of it. The producer will often and clearly state she has a low budget but don't believe them. They'll have put a story and commentary from the jumper along with it. I would negotiate final say into the story since it will most likely get played out as him being an idiot.

sinjin 0 #13 September 24, 2010 i dont think the poster has any trouble trying to make this guy look bad, he did it all by himself. Other than a cactus and barbed wire factory, im sure u could find a better LZ. Spectators everywhere just left of the dirt ramp on his approach. Looks like large mounds right of the ramp he hit as well as a sunken in circle track area with a high speed approach. I dont see any outs or even the good part of the LZ for that matter. Wonder why there is so much red tape for a demo ?? way to get it on video !!!!dont let life pass you by Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
