Nighttime Jumpers at WEBN Labor Day Fireworks

[DiverMike 5]

Can anybody identify/comment on the six jumpers who started off the WEBN Labor Day Fireworks on Sunday? They did a very good job on creating a pyrotechnic sky dance and then landing on a tennis court. It was nice to see such a positive demonstration of our sport.

The diver who jumped the American Flag a couple of hours before the fireworks wasn't as lucky. He appeared to get caught up in a strong headwind. Watching him come down, I had no idea where he could land safely amoungst a couple hundred thousand people. He barely cleared the Fort Washington Way expressway and landed on a sidestreet. He landed without incident unless you count draping a hundred foot flag over an unsuspecting SUV. It must have been a major rush.

For the same reason I jump off a perfectly good diving board.

It might help if you said WHERE this happened.

Sorry - it was Cincinnati. I guess I was reaching out to the 400,000 people who were there.

Team Fastrax did the demo jump and all the Pyro jumps into the show. I'm not going to screw up who was on the jump and who wasn't so I'll just say that they dis a great job with the jump and warmed up on Saturday night by jumping into the Work Stinks boogie with pyro on to start that fireworks show also.

Yesterday is history
And tomorrow is a mystery
