Pace to jump?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I`ve got this picture. It`s an abandoned diamond mine in Siberia. The hole is about 1,5 km deep and 540m wide. It takes about 90-120 minutes to drive a track down.

Once I've progressed to succesfully jumping from pyramids, I'll immediately jump this site.

Draw a rope between the diameter points and make sure there's a truck waiting for you at the bottom, as a walk along the spiral is a few miles easily. :)
Cool find!

The "steps" look to be about 90 to 100m high. If so, yes its jumpable ;)

Found a little something about the site. You got the wide/depth-thingy the wrong way. The answer is; 1 1/2 km wide, 500 m deep. Also found a picture with snow in the mine, and i guess it's better suited for a snowboardride :S A answer would be to bring a 1,5 km wire and two trucks so than one could exit in the middle, but this kind of blew me off;

Call me chicken, but beeing held up with a kalosnikow in Siberia Russia is not my kind of thrill... But i wont stop anyone :P

I`ve suspect that without any prior knowledge.
Beer for the Pyramid jumpers, of course just right after any jump :).

Mines. Beauty.

Check out Chuiquicamata in Northern Chile, or, better even, the biggest man made hole in Kimberley, South Africa.
However, the remarks above apply....
