jlmiracle 7 #76 August 30, 2007 Quote don't you need a special permit to drop something out of the plane that's gonna fall all the way to the ground without any parachute deployment? Don't you think the FAA is gonna have a field day with this? Stop it Billy. This is too funny, especially since they don't have a clue when they post something that could potentionally get them in big trouble with the FAA. jBe kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

livn4dalord33 0 #77 August 30, 2007 I have no reason to belittle anyone...i have seen too many malicious attacks and crap in my life, (mostly in Iraq) that have curved me from ever wanting to personally attack someone without merit or reason.. I have thick skin and can handle more than the average, but just like i told Billy, I don't know him so there's no reason for me to get on any "bandwagon" and bash him... i love skydiving...ive waited 24 years, since seein my father jump in '80 with SF, to do it myself...i see it as a melting pot-tight nit community..the military keeps me grounded and after being in Iraq i look at the world and the ppl that live in it differently than before...with that book written, ill let yall get back to posting everything b/t here and the moon!!;)"More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse."

ACMESkydiver 0 #78 August 30, 2007 Quote Quote Quote I dunno if your quote was meant for me, but just so u know i wasn't in the video, nor there when it was taped, but i am the one who posted this...but if u were referring to me as being "little", well it is not somethin ive ever been referred to as before, but "God-fearing"-i'll admit to that..but hey u have a right to your opinion, so if u think im little, im cool with that...but would suggest u re-think that after lookin at the pic at least..;) I was the one that called you 'little'. I thought it was pretty small to post something that spiteful about one of our own on our boards. -but I guess if the object of your attack says that your intentions weren't malicious, I'll take it back. Sorry. Sure, but I still laughed at his need to post a picture to prove what a big man he is! Not sure what he thought it would accomplish, but whatever. Scared me. Boy looks like he could beat the shit out of me. -Luckily I don't have to worry about that stuff.

Not sure what he thought it would accomplish, but whatever. no need really, and sorry but i dont consider myself a big man either, and to be honest really didnt have a NEED to accomplish anything...sorry if it offended u..just wanted to make a point, based on the misconception that one may have thought as me being the "skinny" one in the video...wow..but hey, im not that guy..."the one who "thinks" he's better or bigger than anyone..to be honest im quite the opposite..;)"More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse."

Don't you think the FAA is gonna have a field day with this? Quote nope. The only thing you need to do is take proper precautions to not hit people or property on the ground. If I were them I would be more worried about you going after them legally than the FAA. I cant believe they went through all that trouble and money to make that video. Thats kind of sad. I hope when they grow up a little they find more productive(or at least less hateful) ways to spend there time. This isn't a very positive way to show our sport. I don't agree with skyride at all and I would personally chose not to jump at one of their DZ's and hope others do the same. I know there is 2 sides to every story though and some people might not have the option to go to a further DZ so it's jump there or not jump. I don't hate them just because of there DZO. I really hope every jumper at these DZ's aren't like the people that made this video because they look like dreadful people and aren't good ambassadors for our sport or the other people that jump at there DZ Fly like a girl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

livendive 8 #96 August 30, 2007 Quote http://www.2020vertical.com/...007/bassproshops.wmv ... There are clues. Late in the video, one of them was heard saying they landed downwind. Then confirmed it by reading their DZ forum thread. I'm not going to name people. You just have to figure it out with a little sleuthing work. I sat through the video once. I thought the direction the parachutes went upon landing was a pretty good indication of wind direction. I mean, how many people get drug forward by the wind?

livendive 8 #98 August 30, 2007 QuoteAs for me i will keep jumping with the great people in this sport. the people who havent lost sight of the brotherhood that is skydiving. The people in that brotherhood wouldn't steal from the widow of a jumper who went in, or support people who would do so. You may very well be part of a tight-knit group of friends, but it should be quite clear by now that the brotherhood of skydiving has disowned some of your brethren for conduct unbecoming a member.
