NickDG 23 #1 January 11, 2005 Last week a fellow from England asked my help with a small BASE history project he was doing. His name is Richard and he's a skydiver and I think he's doing the project for college. I sent him a basic written primer on BASE history and then he asked if I could supply a short video of myself presenting the same information for his presentation. I only have a digital still camera with limited video capability, but I managed it, (it's being raining all week in California) and while it's no great shakes, it might be interesting to some. It'll work best if you right click and save to your computer. It's a bit over two megs . . . This is a very basic history lesson, and I had to leave a lot out, so if you think I neglected something I did, as I just couldn't get it all in while tapeing 50 seconds at a time (then dumping the video card) and starting again . . . It was fun on a rainy day, though . . . Vid Here NickD BASE 194 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
