"In pictures: BASE jumping" (BBC article)

Recommended Posts

I particularly like the second one from the bottom (attached). It's not a particularly good picture, but it is a shot of someone I know fairly well...

It is ;) In talk back there is a thread about this... I guess the BBC does'nt have any of the names right on that whole page. Have you ever heard of a "Croatia's skydiver Robert Fry"? Not many... but I bet a few know who Robert Pecnik is.

The last picture on that page was in one of our newspapers a few days ago. Underneath it was a short article about the "paragliding contest" being held in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia...:P
