Me Playing My Trumpet In Freefall

I know of a "quintet" that jumped in italy. A buddy of mine jumped with a clarinet... I dont know what other instruments they had but I think it was mostly woodwinds. But I do know that most of them werent really musicians. I know of a guy playing accordion though I cant find the video. Theres also a BASE harmonica player http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=3758&string=harp. That one is badass because you can really hear the harmonica due to the dead air... for a second... :) -

I could hear it fine mostly because of the buzz in my head/helmet. On the raw video you can hear the sound just as I am turning and the bell is laserbeamed at the camera. Im sure that if my goal was to project to the camera that it would be very audible, but I just didnt think about that. I was actually pretty nervous about it (81st jump) so I was just focusing on altitude and pull sequence. The next time I do it I will do some squealing for the camera and post the raw video.... :) -

its actually a pocket trumpet. It is even smaller than a cornet. Trumpet, cornet, and this all have the same amount of tubing, the only difference is that this one is wrapped as small as possible without having too terrible of a sound. It does sound pretty bad though. I just couldnt imagine getting my $2000 bach stradivarius trumpet caught in my lines, though it would sound quite a bit nicer. Plus I wouldnt have another trumpet to play taps for it as I watched it plummet to the earth. Maybe after my cutaway I could track to it and grab it?... :) -

I had this video on youtube a while back and it is now on my new youtube page, and for some reason it just occurred to me that maybe it would appeal to more people on "dropzone" than just beginning to circulate by search on youtube. Comments on the youtube vid would be greatly appreciated... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0B42jnj8Uro enjoy, Matt
