I WONDER HOW I COULD GET A GUEST APPIERENCE ON THE SHOW? OH, I KNOW. WHAT IF I BUILD A 300FT. STATUE OF MYSELF, (DAMN THAT WOULD LOOK GOOD ) WITH A BUILT IN ELEVATOR GOING THROUGH MY LEG ON UP TO MY FACE, THEN THE DOORS OPEN, AND I JUMP OUT OF MY MOUTH AS THE EXIT POINT. I COULD BUILD IT IN MY OLD HOME TOWN OF AUBURN, CA.
I BET THEY WOULD LET ME ON THE SHOW THEN????B|

Because that article is aimed towards wuffos. The fact that I can count 30 means that there are probably atleast 300

Next week episode description:
During the week, Greg Gasson is a mild-mannered software engineer at the University of Arizona in Tucson. But on weekends, he turns into a superman. Greg is one of the world's most accomplished and respected skydivers, with a habit of making outrageous stunts look easy. On Stunt Junkies, Greg will attempt to jump out of one plane, fly through the air at an altitude of 11,000 to 15,000 feet and into another plane, without ever opening his chute. It's a daring experiment involving terminal velocity, aeronautic daredevilry and split-second timing.
Airs Jan. 18, at 10 p.m. ET/PT

And he is still the ONLY one to do it into teh SAME plane. You can see Jeb trying to do just that in one on his movies at skydivingmovies.com, and failing (not reaching the plane).

Oh, man. I'm milking that for all it's worth. I want every hot chick to see that show, and when they found out that I wingsuit BASE... it will mildly negate my unfavorable looks and personality. Yes!

Sorry guys, I have always hated that bio. Parts of it are over 5 years old and need to be updated. Other parts were updated with out people actually talking to me. It actually makes me want to puke any time i see it used and it was giving to Discovery without me being asked or talked to. Sorry again for it's gross inaccuracies and i will contact them ASAP to have them fixed...

No reflection on Jeb's abilities, and it may be partly based on being quite jaded and in my 50s now, but the show came off as sorta weak to me....much adou about nothing.
Perhaps I'll feel differently when they show some air segments.

I felt the same way. He had already done a backflip, now he was just doing it over a train. I couldn't do it, but then again I've never tried it.

Jeb lets be honest. The Discovery Channel should do a show on you. They should follow you for a year and see what it's like to be Jeb. That'd be way cooler in my opinion.

PS: I've seen the video of A Year in the Life of Jeb, but I mean a year of showing more than just the jumps. Preparation, seeing new places, etc.
