jtval 0 #5 October 11, 2006 Are you looking for a picture IN FREEFALL? or can it be simulated? (with a large fan or something?)My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MB38 0 #6 October 11, 2006 Pull the PC out of your rig. Put a small fan on the ground. Inflate your PC over the fan. Take a picture at the appropriate angle. Photoshop.I really don't know what I'm talking about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herminiocordido 0 #7 October 11, 2006 yeah, it can be simulated, i don't have a rig right now... H Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr2mk1g 10 #8 October 11, 2006 hmm.. I'd say the next photograph after the shot from above of an inflated PC would the interesting one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MB38 0 #9 October 11, 2006 Heh, a little desk fan won't be enough to pull the pin... particularly if you put the fan's weight on top of the bridle [so all pull force goes into the fan, not into the rig].I really don't know what I'm talking about.

skymedic 0 #10 October 11, 2006 I don't think thats what he is talking about. I am also interested in seeing the shot after you get the PC pic done. Yikes and ouch would be an understatement. Marc otherwise known as Mr.Fallinwoman.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dropoutdave 0 #13 October 13, 2006 That's a great shot. Love the plaster cast too! How high over the water is he on that picture? ------------------------------------------------------ May Contain Nut traces...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
base935 0 #14 October 13, 2006 Does it have to be skydive specific? Or will big BASE PCs work for your little project?Gravity Research Institute Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks - don't know how high he was but it's zoomed in to make it look a lot lower than it really is. Probably 250 feet would be my guess.. Here's another pilot chute Pic Action©Sports Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jtval 0 #16 October 14, 2006 Where the hell did you get that? With such a background I would say it was photoshopped, but damn being there would make two people very lucky to be alive. I tried to get a pictureofmy PC in the wind tunnel (on idle) but I just got a blur. Sorry to the OP but at least I triedMy photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
