Groteslurf Posted September 9, 2007 Posted September 9, 2007 A while ago my neighbour asked whether I wouldn't like to do a parachute jump. I immediately said no ! Riding stand up-tilting free fall towers, I like it. Riding fly coasters, I like it. Next year I'll be riding TTD & KK : I'll put my hands in the air and I will like it. But parachute jumping ... no, that's too risky imo. Nevertheless, my neighbour found 3 friends ready to jump and I proposed to cam them. From the footage I freezed some pics and thought some of you might be interested. Last one also made a nearly perfect landing. That's it. I still would not do it. Think it's really too risky. But he landed ok My neighbour landing in a nearby field. ^ ^ ^ Jump Next 2 ready. But his ass was hurting. The unfortunate first guy, was already back on his feet. Perfect landing. He didn't forget to break ^ I decided to continue filming as other people were already running to him. After all, there was still another person in the air. I didn't really know what to do : keep on filming or run to help. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Forgetting to brake ... Take note : this is going to be a bad landing. ^ Preparing to land The other two were scheduled on the next flight. First one out of the plane Ready to take off Entering the plane. All day long, small planes were flying over us at not even 10 meters. ^ off they were. The little guy in the front was their instructor. His age : 74 !!! Helmets and parachutes on and ... After a crash course of a few hours, they were ready to try out their yellow suite.
