darkvapor 0 #58 November 13, 2003 http://www.bayarea.com/mld/mercurynews/news/local/7252349.htm Quote Man completes bid for skydiving world record in SoCal Associated Press LAKE ELSINORE, Calif. - A 47-year-old man jumped out of a plane 534 times in 24 hours in hopes of landing a new world record. Jay Stokes of Yuma, Ariz., used 22 parachutes and two planes in completing the stunt Wednesday morning. Each jump from 2,100 feet took an average of less than three minutes to complete. Stokes set the Guinness World Record in 1999 for parachute jumps in 24 hours, but Michael Zang took the title from him in 2001 with 500 jumps. He took pledges and contributions for the latest attempt and plans to donate the money to charity. "I'm certainly glad it's over," he said after his final landing on a field turned muddy by heavy rain in this community about 70 miles east of Los Angeles. Stokes' 11-year-old son watched the jumps and was already planning to overtake his father. "When I get old enough I want to beat his record," Evan Stokes said.

Tonto 1 #59 November 13, 2003 Awesome. Absolutely incredible. Our DZ did 4 jumpers - 100 jumps each in 12 hours - and that was a challenge for all but the Porter. This is absolutely incredible! Congratulations to all! tIt's the year of the Pig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kramer 0 #60 November 13, 2003 Was he freefalling for very long if at all from that altitude? I'd imagine he'd almost have to fall down to 1500 or so to be able to pop those jumps off every three minutes... -Kramer The FAKE KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!!!!!!!!!

laurie 0 #61 November 13, 2003 He was opening right out the door and spiralling down...it was very cool to watch!!! When I was there he was basically landing the same time as the plane Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites DBCOOPER 5 #62 November 13, 2003 Its only taken me 4 1/2 years to get that many.Replying to: Re: Stall On Jump Run Emergency Procedure? by billvon If the plane is unrecoverable then exiting is a very very good idea.

Yeah, but you didn't quite have to pay to rent 48 wet piloted Porter hours by yourself to get there, and your average jump was probably more fun and certainly more varied than the ones on this record. We mortals are better off jumping a few times per day and giving money more directly to charity. -=-=-=-=- Pull.
