Mostly_Harmless 0 #27 August 28, 2007 Quote That looked like it sucked. It did suck. It sucked to watch it too, I hate seeing people get hurt. But by the time I walked over there I could hear him talking and he seemed in good spirits. He made the comment "Did I get a point for touching the water?". I don't know if it makes any difference but when I looked over my other footage I saw that his first jump he was very high over the pond._________________________________________ www.myspace.com/termvelocity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyL 0 #37 August 28, 2007 Dude, you smacked the culvert, that's one of the narliest places to enter or exit the pond aside from the tree side. I think that's the highest point on that side of the pond. Surprised you made it through that one. That's so hardcore! Glad you are still with us. Video looks like you bounced, ouch. Nice approach and turn though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Peej 0 #40 August 29, 2007 Nice one dude, at least you're here to tell us about the lesson though! Before seeing the vid i thought you had just slammed into the water and not the ground, CrazyL is right, you're extremely lucky Take care Advertisio Rodriguez / Sky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Easily the scariest thing I have seen yet. Right on! Really scary! I just have to say that I'm glad you're ok and I think everyone around that pond learned something that day. The world can be an unforgiving place. Especially when you hit it that hard!

DougH 270 #46 September 7, 2007 Does any one know if the ranch wants footage of the even for any production piece they might be putting together? I have some decent video from my pc350 that I would be happy to throw on a dvd "The restraining order says you're only allowed to touch me in freefall" =P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DoubleBagg 0 #47 September 8, 2007 He just barely missed the culvert, was very close though.Just once I'd like to be called "sir", without someone adding "you're inciting a riot". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyL 0 #48 September 11, 2007 Quote He just barely missed the culvert, was very close though.oooh spooky. I tell ya, from my point of view assessing that particular pond, the culvert is Black Death. So he struck the ground just before it. He's so lucky.
