How crazy would you have to be to do this?

I've had people tell me to take a flying leap before; but I'm smarter than them.

I'd never do that. WTF? Didnt you think they were a little too close to that cliff?

Interestingly, these daredevils (jumpers, skiiers) die quite frequently, it is hard to get good data on the incidence but the likelihood of getting life insurance is null.

Hell no! He is so going to hit his head one day. I predict that will be how he dies.

 

[cindylou]

wow i got queasy watching that

there is no way i could do that. i have to medicate myself to fly

That is f-ing awesome, but he looks like hes real close to the cliff face. After doing this it would be pretty hard to get excited about other stuff. I mean what do you do next? shoot cans off your head, ride rockets,surf a shark what do you do?

the united states averages 8 people a year that die from skydiving. I have friends that jump 300 times a year so I would say the odds are just about nil.

 

[redsamurai]

did you see how high those guys still are when they punch out of the dive? ppffffttttt, pussies............Patrck Swayze pulls that cord like way lower............;-)

Your off by a factor of about 4-5 (depending on year)

LOL @ the thought of base jumping in Ohio. Climb to the top of that speedbump and leap off with utter abandon!

 

[cindylou]

I wonder what the average of cliff jumpers and skydivers there are anyway. 33 deaths a year sounds small but how many people actually do that on a regular basis all the time?

if the odds were really honestly better that you would die driving to the airport then insurance would cover these people no?
