  1. Two minutes after reading this post, I stumbled upon this jet pack vid. Unintentionally..

  3. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/06/24/funeral_death/ Woman dies of heart attack at own funeral Shock of resurrection proves fatal A Russian woman died of a heart attack at her own funeral, after waking up to find praying mourners filing past her coffin. According to the Daily Mail, Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov, 49, had been declared dead after suffering chest pains and collapsing at home in Kazan, capital of Tatarstan. Doctors had failed to spot she was actually very much alive, and Mrs Mukhametzyanov unsuprisingly began screaming when she regained consciousness to find she was being prematurely dispatched to the hereafter. Her husband, 51-year-old Fagili Mukhametzyanov, said: "Her eyes fluttered and we immediately rushed her back to the hospital but she only lived for another 12 minutes in intensive care before she died again, this time for good." He added: "I am very angry and want answers. She wasn’t dead when they said she was and they could have saved her." Hospital spokesman Minsalih Sahapov assured an investigation into the matter was under way. ® I don't have a license for this.

  5. Read my post again. How you responded seems like ya didn't read it all. It isn't about the camera. It's about having something on your helmet in general. If they knew everything, there wouldn't be a need for the USPA anymore. How long have DZs been using helmet radios? How can they know how safe it is, if it is relatively new? I don't think this is a, "They know it safe because they have digits." I'm not out to change what works. If it works, keep it that way. I want to know the logic behind the whole argument. I know this forum isn't the place for this. Gotta start somewhere though. I don't have a license for this.
  6. -I didn't want to start ANOTHER damn thead about this.- I am having trouble with the logic and rational behind these two photos. Pic #1- You better believe I would rather have this on my head over Pic #2. I am CERTAIN I would be thinking about #2 the entire climb and freefall. I would be wondering, "Is it gonna snag...? is it gonna snag? Why is this thing there? Is it gonna snag?" Talk about a distraction.. Pic #1... I wouldn't think about it like that. Keep in mind in this hypothetical situation, I would have zero jumps and a good amount of knowledge about the sport without experience. AND I would not turn either one on. My instructors would. (Just as they actually did with my radio.) In conclusion, all of you that say the distraction factor is there for camera... moot point! That damn radio is MUCH more of a distraction and snag hazard. Being a student, I wouldn't want either one of those on my helmet. Although, if I were to pick one, it's going to be the logically safer of the two. The smaller one. Snag hazard... what photo looks more of a snag hazard. This is not about when I can put a camera on my head... It's about things on my helmet in general and why anyone would allow it for first time jumpers. The way I see it, I could build a cam in that monster of a radio. Turn it on (the unit, being radio and cam) and "forget" about it. The distraction is there no matter what. I feel 200 jumps should be the min amount to have a beast like pic #2 on my helmet. I also feel 200 jumps should be the min for a camera. I didn't know where to put this where I would get honest replies. So it's here. -Confused Student Take Care I don't have a license for this.

    I find it strange that there are over thousand views in less than a day... with only, now, seven replies. Very interesting.

  10. I'm ready to go up to 33.5... Those last five minutes are so exciting. I don't have a license for this.
  11. Am I missing something here?? http://cgi.ebay.com/GALCIT-10-foot-Wind-Tunnel-entrance-sign-CAL-TECH-/290254273332?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item439480bb34 Seems like a deal of a lifetime. I don't have a license for this.

  13. Something to keep in mind. The student rigs that I have jumped only had one handle (SOS or Single Operating System). It was a red velcro soft handle over the heart (it basically looks like a toggle). I would most likely have to peel it to punch it. It would be very difficult to punch it down without peeling it away. As it sits on roughly a 1 X 4.5 inch rectangular surface. Take Care I don't have a license for this.
  14. God damn it. You're not a lady if you're fucking having sex on the first date FFS FGS. Stop abusing the fucking dang language. I'm not actually trying to correct you. I'm just rollin' around in the bonfire...
  15. I have only been riding in Colorado. So... Arapahoe Basin Breckenridge Vail Keystone and Copper Mountain are good chill out type of rides. I don't know if you are on the hitchhike type adventure... If you are, Summit County is fun to ride. As long as you are cool with parking at the top, riding down and hitchen a ride back to the top. To me, mountains are amazing. I live in Minnesota. Take Care. I don't have a license for this.

    Sorry ...

    -I might be getting on the wrong side of the fence here.- I don't know what was said. I have been away from Dropzone.com for a few days. What I do know... is that there is no way to be banned from a website. Period. I will not share the information on how to do so. (not even in a PM) This is a JSYK post.

  18. I mean no disrespect/dishonor to Jerome McCauley or any Navy SEAL. (Thank You for your service) My post had/has NOTHING to do with human Navy SEALs. I apologize if I have offended. I was specifically talking about the picture I posted. Either way, I was never bad-mouthing any type of "navy seal". I figured with all the constant sex/relationship talk, I should mix it up.
  19. I'd like to see you try to F*@$!# a Navy Seal. Ya gotta count the number of symbols... For all the people that can't figure it out: Fu*kin navy seals (not capitalized)... in a hole... They are SO cute. That is all I wrote... nothing more.

  21. Thank you for that information. I was not aware of that situation. It's all contextual. I don't have a license for this.

  23. For the record, it was a fictional story about this pic. I though I have seen it posted in the bonfire, so i thought it would fly. Well, move the thread please. I don't have a license for this.
