    Hey! So yeah... I have jumped and packed wings and it was a really comfortable harness and really easy to close when packing. Dads vector was also an easy pack but seemed like the harness was thinner and would be less comfortable (never jumped it because he had a velocity 96 in it) which is more reliable? Which is better?

    My only question is What the hell did they think was going to happen? I saw that coming as soon as I saw the rigging.



    It wasnt the rigging, the helicopter hit the cable. The way it was connected would not have an effect on why it crashed.

    Since many political experts on here seem to know exactly why Romney lost, I thought it would be best to put all the reasons in one thread rather than scatter them around.



    because they are annoying and are anti progressive. they keep trying the same thing and expecting a different result



    You mean like the Liberals (Communists)?



    fact. repubs put us in a recession, liberals got us out

    religion is an evolutionary invention by man



    That may well be since religion is ritualized behavior. A personal spiritual relationship with Jesus Christ is something else altogether. Would that be of interest to you?



    no because i quit believing in imaginary friends when i was kid

    40 Days of Prayer is a call to fervent prayer for our elections. We are in desperate days as a nation as the spiritual, moral and financial fabric of our nation is disintegrating around us. Believers need to pray as never before. America's National Prayer Committee and its member organizations are putting out a call to pray 40 days prior to the elections (September 28 - November 6).

    Its a shame Obama is on tape saying he will have more flexibility to get in bed with Russia once re elected.

    Its a shame Obama's wife was only proud of America once her husband was elected

    Its a shame Obama is on tape laughing about job ready jobs not being so job ready as he promised.

    Its a shame Obama wrote in his book that he used marijuana and cocaine ("maybe a little blow".) but writes that he didn't try heroin because -- wait for it -- he didn't like the pusher who was selling it. Which he admitted to the International Herald Tribune it was true in, October 25, 2006

    Its a shame Obama lied about if the Supreme Court throws out the federal health care law, it “would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress

    Its a shame

    Obama- “For the first time since 1990, American manufacturers are creating new jobs.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False

    Obama- “Preventive care … saves money, for families, for businesses, for government, for everybody.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact- Wrong in 2009, and wrong today)

    Obama- “Thirty million Americans, including a lot of people in Florida, are going to be able to get healthcare next year because of that law.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False

    Obama- “I made a bunch of these promises during the campaign. … We’ve got about 60 percent done in three years.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact- “In the Works” does not equal “done”)

    Obama Admin.- Under President Barack Obama, the United States has “doubled our exports.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False

    Obama Admin.- The president’s proposed budget “will help reduce the deficit by $400 billion over the next decade to the lowest level since Dwight Eisenhower was president.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-A mangled reference to a prior talking point)

    Obama- Under the White House’s budget proposal, “we will not be adding more to the national debt” by the middle of the decade.
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-Revenue would equal outlays, but he ignores growing interest on the debt)

    Obama- Twelve judges have thrown out legal challenges to the health care law because they rejected “the notion that the health care law was unconstitutional.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-Score two to two on judges’ decisions on constitionality)

    Obama- “I didn’t raise taxes once.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-We’ve tracked a few increases)

    Obama- When President Franklin D. Roosevelt started Social Security, “it only affected widows and orphans,” and when Medicare began, “it was a small program.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-A grain of truth in the big picture, far off on the details)

    Obama- The Bush administration had been “giving (auto companies) billions of dollars and just asking nothing in return.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False

    Obama- “The vast majority of the money I got was from small donors all across the country.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-Big donors bankrolled much of Obama’s campaign)

    Obama- “We’ve excluded lobbyists from policymaking jobs.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-We found at least four)

    Obama- When Obama was interviewed by American reporters in Asia, “Not one of them asked me about Asia. Not one of them asked me about the economy.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-More than one did)

    Obama- Insurers delayed an Illinois man’s treatment, “and he died because of it.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (Insurer’s decision was reversed and man lived three more years)

    Obama- Health reform will “give every American the same opportunity” to buy health insurance the way members of Congress do.
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False

    Obama- Preventive care “saves money.”
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False
    (PolitiFact-Covering preventive care for everyone is a net cost)

    Obama- (No earmarks in spending bill)
    Truth-O-Meter rating: False

    Curious how a pilot, Mike Mullins or any pilot in the business, get his airplane on the ground so fast after dropping off the jumpers?

    What does a pilot do to the plane/motors/props...that allows them to get the plane on the ground quickly? If you could compare that to a standard descent as an example, that would be helpful.

    Is this fast descent hard on the plane?



    he brings it straight down

    1. Supposed you jumped off of a building, bridge, cliff, balloon...how many feet would you have to fall before you reach 120mph?

    Answer: "A typical skydiver in a spread-eagle position will reach terminal velocity after about 12 seconds, during which time they will have fallen around 450 m (approx 1,500 ft)." Found here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_fall under Examples.


    2. People who jump from heights into pools, what are their speeds as they hit the water and how high are they jumping from? Are they reaching speed of 120mph?

    Answer: Dana Kunze, Record High Dive holder at 172 feet, tumbling type feet first entry. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uHkyMh9FW4

    Still looking for his speed at entry.



    usually about 500
