Posting this on the internet wasn't the brightest idea.

I bet picking the spot was a piece of piss though

People aint made of nothin' but water and shit.

Until morale improves, the beatings will continue.

looks about 1500 feet on the door not the smartest

You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)
My Life ROCKS!
How's yours doing?

Aah. Reminds me of the good old days, after a weekend of shit weather, sunday afternoon climbing passes at 15-1800ft

not the smartest thing to do but ----

ignoring the legal issue ----

would you rather be at terminal at 2000' or be exiting a stable Cessna at 1500"? what about 1800"?

Give one city to the thugs so they can all live together. I vote for Chicago where they have strict gun laws.

I never said I haven't done it. I just said I didn't post the video on the internet.

That bears a striking resemblance to Hinckley...

Goudha is for Buddha, and that's good enough for me!

Display jumps are easily at 1800 if you are lucky.
Especially in high air traffic areas and cities.

I have jumped onto race tracks and into stadiums from altitudes of 1600 - 1800ft.

Yup, it is the dropzone Hinckley, Il. Currently known as Chicagoland Skydiving Center, but I can say that based on the numbers of hangars built, the video is at least 6 years old, which predates both myself being there, and the current owners.

They've been jumping in Hinckly since the early 60's, low-pulls were a lot more common in the "olden days" than they are now.

You didnt post it, but you are now providing links to it and drawing more attention to it. Doesn't that fucking contradict your whole attitude about the video in the first place? Stupid.

Ummm..........it's on GOOGLE FUCKING VIDEO. I don't think me putting a link to it on DZ.com is ADDING a whole lot of attention.

Who gives a fuck. Seriously, who really gives a fuck?

Not my video. I sure as hell don't. I've never even jumped at Hinckley.

[hisgoofyness 0]

Yeah, I know Andy...

If you remember correctly... Hinckley was my home for a short while a few years ago...

Doug always treated me like family... Not to mention it is a great place to skydive!

Thread is so young and it's already getting shit.

1. So an emergency at that altitude and you're gonna get out knowing that you are purposely doing "something stupid."

2. That altitude was not uncommon at one time.

3. Dope on a Rope was not much higher than that...on a regular basis...with reserve rounds on your belly.

4. Your decision altitude is that high...for the more experienced.

5. Thanks for the link even though it wasn't a good video and didn't really give you the feel of the event.

My reality and yours are quite different.
I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

I'm all about low clouds all weekend being an emergency.

I think anyone who has problems getting out at 1500ft needs to rethink If this sport is for them.
