Highest? Lowest?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Lowest, a Direct Bag off a 90' Florida Bridge over Good Water, just over a 1 second Parachute Ride.

Highest, a 10 second Delay off a 2300' California Cliff at 3:30 in the Morning.

1980's Era.

Thank You,
Gerald Harendza BASE #75

145' stowed,from the top of my van, Canada



hey Lonnie

for the benefit of the masses here, maybe you should have added that the van was driving at a significant speed over a bridge....

that was the coolest jump video I have seen,

you are the man!

'low and stowed' - it's the Canadian way...

Freefall or S/L? A couple of the locals here static lined a 111' span over hard ground a few years ago. Repeatedly. Total time from exit to landing sat somewhere near 3 seconds, and the canopy was almost flying when they hit the ground.

You know it's low when the second guy (hardcore by anybody's standards) says to the first, "I'm just going to watch to see how yours goes before I make my decision; I've got a trip to Malaysia coming up and can't afford to break my legs." And you know the first guy is hardcore when he jumps after the "break my legs" discussion.

More generally, asking about lowest jumps opens a can of worms that can only lead to lots of video of similarly low jumps (because certainly they've been done) and stories about rocket-deployed mains and (as above) freefalls done from couches, roofs, etc.

DON'T PANIC
The lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
sloppy habits -> sloppy jumps -> injury or worse

Highest - 877ft - Bridge Day, 2005
Lowest - 876ft - Bridge Day, 2005
(I jumped up a bit more on the first one)

What prize do I get for the biggest low jump? If its the (missing) photos, just CC me along with the others.

Can't believe this thread is still going! Allright.

6.5k highest, 0 lowest. This covers the whole range known as of today.

What kind of delay did you take? Go stowed?



I'm pretty sure that it was the only jump he was ever injured on. Beware those ultra low freefalls. :P

O is Other. It is used when the object does not fall within the BASE classification. A smokestack for example is not a building nor an antenna.... it would be an O


Outrager... i assume that the 6.5 is accomplished using a WS of course?
