Gators1240 9 #1 August 25, 2010 Ok so they probably don't actually do that but so far this morning I have seen 4 videos on CNN that were posted here a within the last few days including the rubiks cube solved during free fall and the Indian pole gymnastics thing.

Jumpdude 0 #2 August 25, 2010 I can tell that they do for sure. Now, I can't say for sure if it's CNN looking for stories or if it's someone who works there that is a jumper or a whuffo looking to jump, but the reason I know, is that multiple times, I have hits to my sLyride Consumer Alerts that show up as the CNN IP, host name and server. The hits have come from a variety of threads/posts. The most have come from the sLyride threads, but some have come from Billy's NSFW thread and other threads where I have posted stuff. The click thru's most likely came from my sig at the bottom of my posts since in those other threads, the sLyride subject may or may not come up. Also, I get quite a few hits from Turner News, AP, CNBC, CBS, FOXnews, various local news stations and various government departments. Most come from Google, but they often come from DZ.com. The good thing is that they usually spend at least a few minutes on the site, and check multiple links, so at least they are getting the message. The most recent was from MyFOX Atlanta, so I'd expect that Randy is getting ready to run another sLyride story. Refuse to Lose!!!
