Ah, the things you can do when you are not aware of your own mortality.:)
Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off.

Funny when a skydiver makes a comment like this... since this is exactly the kind of comments we have to put up with from people who don't understand our sport!

As others pointed out, the guy has skill.

As nobody else pointed out, this is a repost but I'm too lazy to find the original. :$

I remember seeing a video on this guy going through some city hopping off walls and doing flips and stuff all over the place. He's pretty amazing.

That video is on this site. These guys train hard and it is definitely skill. Most come from martial arts and spent a good deal of time developing their bodies to a point where they can achieve things like that video demonstrated.


Greenie in training.

That's David Belle, a French guy and one of the pioneers of "le parkour", or "free running" as it's known.

You can find out more about him at www.davidbelle.com if interested, search the web for some of his videos, they are amazing and show you just what you can do with your body, a lot of practice, huge balls, and an untapped urban playground.

nice video, but to answer your original question - yes, I have BASE jumped without a rig - it's called cliff diving. ;)
