"The History Channel (THC) was at the Pepperell Skydiving Center in June, shooting footage for a new series called "The Works."
The upcoming episode will feature a tandem skydive, wingsuit flocking and wind tunnel flight."
"According to the THC Web site, the show will begin airing Sept. 19 at 8 p.m. on The History Channel (Charter channel 54).
In Pepperell, the crew filmed a segment about the wing-suit jumpers (aka Birdmen), and Wilson did his first skydive."

The article is a little misleading on one point.

Phil Roberson shot the RW footage. Scotty Burns shot the wingsuit footage.

i didn't read the article, just the blurb above.. it's not misleading. Those guys where the camera men hired by the history channel to shoot the footage, so technically the history channel shot it, they were cameramen.

Where is my fizzy-lifting drink?

iTunes, $1.99:

"Skydiving 44:49 The Works. Many of us have marveled to see a man whizzing to earth in free fall wondering how it's possible. Now, we're uncovering the physics, biology and technology behind skydiving. Its history in World War II aside, skydiving today has many surprising applications."

I got it saved to my DVR but don't know how I could share it.....
During the show the host says something about how he is going to find out if the "reward outweighs the risk".... He never directly answers this question. SO DOES THE REWARD OUTWEIGH THE RISK?? DOES ANYBODY KNOW THE ANSWER?? Oh wait, the answer is HELL YES

I haven't found a bitorrent for it to date.

However, it can be downloaded for $1.99 from iTunes (do a search in the TV area for "The Works Skydiving" and it will show up).

And if you were getting wasted Puerto Rican-style, that explains why you're just posting about it now!

(Man, you guys know how to throw a kick ass party.)
