TomAiello 26 #7 May 19, 2005 It's actually Tom Manship, who is currently well over 1500 BASE jumps, and likely has more BASE jumps than anyone on earth at this point.-- Tom Aiello Tom@SnakeRiverBASE.com SnakeRiverBASE.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am pretty sure there are some ninja French dudes with serious amounts of jumps also, but you will never hear about them Mucho Respect to them all.BASEstore.it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

avenfoto 0 #12 May 20, 2005 those things look dangerous as hell.... is threre video anywhere? it looks almost more like a floaty oversized camera suit than a "wing" suit in the conventional sense... what was the performance like on something like that?

The111 1 #13 May 20, 2005 Hey Bryan, I am not at home right now, but I remember downloading some video a few weeks ago, probably from skydivingmovies.com, that was a 10 minute TV segment (I think) about skydiving, from at least a few decades ago. The actors (and skydivers) all looked like they belonged in the cast of Leave it to Beaver, from the way they talked and acted. There was some footage in that video of someone jumping with giant batlike wings. It was scary. When I get home in a week, I will find the video, if someone doesn't link to it sooner. P.S. The performance sucks!www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyingferret 0 #14 May 20, 2005 Indeed it is, and thanks to casedilla for showing me the thread. Extra points if you can name the head in the background. I believe that I can, and I can probably guess where it was as well. Tom probably also has more jumps on the Perrine than any other jumper.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
