300-Way Photo catalogued with participant names

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

When such a World Record happens, each of us is always curious about to know “who’s who” in the picture.

Being so, I’ve decided to have some extra-work, requiring some patience, definitely not as much as all the tremendous planning work 300-Way organizers had to make this World Record happen.

What I did was to gather all the information contained at the 300-Way.com web site (roster, slots and 300-way in color formation draw) and, using the larger size photo of the 300-way (Jason Peters pic), inserted it in a html page, editing with html code each of the 300 skydivers’ names plus Norman Kent, in a way that when opening a web page of the photo, dragging your mouse pointer over each of the skydivers, you’ll be able to see his/her name, immediately knowing "who’s who".

I’ve published this at my personal web site (http://www.mariosantos.com/), at the top of the skydiving news section of it (http://www.mariosantos.com/uk_us/news.htm).

The direct access to the larger pic with the names is: http://www.mariosantos.com/htm/300-Way_pic_with_names.htm

I’ve also arranged the 300-Way Roster by alphabetical order and made it available at http://www.mariosantos.com/xls/300-Way_WR_Alphabetical_Order_Roster_Colors_Dec_12_2002_Eloy_AZ_USA.xls. There are (so far I remember) 3 skydivers jumping different suit color from the one they should according to the initial plan, but that was most likely due to the changes made by the organizers in the roster, along with the several attempts. In the Excel file, I kept the color accordingly to the original 300-Way in color draw.

Although I was careful while working this information, mistakes might have occurred. So, if any of the participants finds out that his/her name corresponding to their slot in the 300-Way is not the correct one, please let me know, e-mailing me to [email protected] and I'll be glad to correct it immediately.

Hope this can be useful.

Once again, congratulations to the 3 main organizers, as well as to Airspeed and every other participants and staff who made this 300-Way possible!

Blue Skies! B|

Unfortunately, the picture had to be taken down per request from 300-way.com webmaster/organizer.

Too bad. A copyright thing? Would you mind sharing your html file?
