quade 3 #6 March 8, 2008 QuoteIt does look like at one point one is wearing a backpack but in a later cut shot that seems to be gone. Yeah, I'll admit that there is one shot that shows one guy and it looks like he's either wearing a hidden rig or has taken it off. If it's hidden, it's a pretty well done set up. If he removed it completely, then, yeah, he's certifiably insane.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FallloutboyDAoC 0 #8 March 8, 2008 Looks pretty brave to me. I think the fear part is the worst part. If your not afraid, its no different than doing pullups from any other hanging bar. I think you gotta be pretty crazy to do that though. Idk, crazy or brave, it was fun to watch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now, if you wanna talk about chest straps, yeah . . . hmmm. I dunno . . . I've now watched it maybe a dozen times and the more I watch it the more I think that maybe they are just incredible idiots.

If it's a customized base container, it's done very clever, because it even has this "hanger grip" on top of the container This whole video irritates me.. the guy in the business suit, the music, etc.. definitly smells fishy, but somehow I believe this is 100% real.

Hausse 0 #11 March 8, 2008 If you look at the last guy at 1:36 you can see his skin around his hips when his t-shirt lifts up. So either he concealed his legstraps really well or (this would be my guess) he's just really ballsy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did take that into consideration when i made my previuous reply, you can see there are NO leg straps, that's why i mentioned in the 1st place. Any other snide comment you want to make? Since even your opening remark was insulting to the OPYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?
