  1. Uh oh! Now everyone knows what 'the Hippo' looks like. You'll have Nick DG round your house breaking your windows. DTM.
  2. If it climbs like a hippo, lands like a hippo and smells like a hippo- then it's a hippo! DTM.
  3. Right on Ken! Us legends have got to stick together! Wait till i tell my mother that i'm a 'legend,' i think the conversation will probably go:- "Mother, did you know that i'm a legendary base jumper?" "Daniel, don't you think you're getting a bit old to be jumping off of buildings in the middle of the night?" "Yes mother..." laters. DTM. (legend.) Ps. Good advice from mr TVPB. Usual bollox from Sabre 210.
  4. To all the Hungarian crew- Really sorry to hear about your man Csaba. ( met him and most of you at the boogie last year.) Dan-the-Man. To everyone else- stop fucking bitching!
  5. Thought i was the one and only! English, jade and white rigs, canopies, jumpsuit etc. Was at the last ostankino event in moscow with you. Also the cable car boogie. Come on, don't be shy, you know you want it! DTM.
  6. Visiting the land of Oz soon. Arrive Sydney 15th october, spending some time there then up to Brisbane, equinox boogie, then Queensland. Would be nice to meet up with any locals to get something done.(Any object, any height, landing area optional.) Laters. Dan-the-Man. PS. Sorry to hear about your boys Coombsey and Adam Gibson.
  7. A 2way off petronas twin towers. DTM.

    Age and BASE

    You're as old as the woman you feel...You cheeky f cka, you should learn to respect your elders!!! Dan-the-Man.
  9. carrot mad, without a doubt! DTM.
  10. Nice one, Gorgeous. Dan-the-Man.
  11. Will be in florida 18-28th february. Starting at dz at sebastian, but will be travelling around, probably miami, tampa... Would be nice to maybe hook up with any locals and get something jumped. Pretty flexible on objects and heights. Maybe do some of the high cliffs and tall bridges i've been told about.... Spread the love. Dan-the-Man.
  12. Recently took the girlfriend to meet the parents. My mother proceeded to embarass her 'macho, adrenaline junkie, living life on the edge' son by getting out the baby photos and old school reports... Looking through the report of an 8 year old 'Dan-the-Man' (dan-the-boy in those days), we came across:- Physical Education- He is very keen on climbing and jumping. What a perceptive teacher. Spread the love. DTM. (not saying what year that report was from.)
  13. Don't bother coming to essex if you love virgins. The only reason Jesus wasn't born in essex is because they couldn't find 3 wise men and a virgin called mary... DTM.
  14. I try not to get too caught up in the 'classification of objects' debate; to me they are all basejumps. At an early stage of my base career someone (can't even remember who) stated that you could only class the object as an A if it had guy wires. I adhere to that school of thought for the reason that avoiding the wires singles this object out from the others; you have to consider wind speed and direction, your exit point, delay, canopy control, dealing with off heading openings. I have jumped many freestanders and pylons and can fully appreciate the argument for calling them A's, but for me -no. I posted on the British base board a while back under the title 'to B or not to B,' asking the same question about B's. Some people call gastowers, cooling towers, chimnies, cranes on top of buildings, silos B's. Personally, i like to keep things simple; if you jumped a dam ( for example) and called it a B, would you jump a building and call it a dam? Laters. DTM. PS. Last night/early this morning i jumped objects 102 and 103, a chimney and a building- that's an O, and a B, not an A and a B, or 2B's. Like i said previously 'me, me, me, me, me...'
