AggieDave 6 #1 August 2, 2006 What do you think, do these two ads from the Google banner ad go to the same place? What kind of store specializes in both? What else would be sold at that online store? Freefly videos might be more interesting and we might be able to break away from the same 5 seconds of techno music played for 90 minutes straight.

Jayruss 0 #4 August 3, 2006 QuoteAbout one in a hundred primary parachute openings is a streamer. Emergency parachutes have a better ratio, with between one in three hundred. Most skydivers believe that they can pack their primary parachutes as carefully as a professional rigger. Thus, a typical jumper can expect both parachutes to fail between once in 30,000 and once in 250,000 dives, depending on the care taken in packing the parachutes. LOL, shit if these were the odds I'd stop jumping QuoteObviously skydivers should never pack their parachutes or jump when hurried, sleepy, drunk or on drugs. With proper care, the safety of skydiving can be increased drastically. That only leaves a few hours a day to pack . . . __________________________________________________ "Beware how you take away hope from another human being." -Oliver Wendell Holmes Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
