GeordieSkydiver 0 #3 March 1, 2005 I was about to flame you if it was a "new" BMW mini. Its pretty cool though. If you like that sort of thing. Homemade windtunnel. Cool. I'm always wishing I could be jumping, but I don't think I'd go that far.Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeordieSkydiver 0 #7 March 1, 2005 Quoteyou don't like the new bmw mini? It's not so much that I dont like it, it's probably an ace car. But it's not, and never will be a "Mini" Its a completely new car, much the same way as the new Beetle has nothing of the old Beetle's character, charm or cheapassness.Lee _______________________________ In a world full of people, only some want to fly, is that not crazy? http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Acensky 0 #9 March 1, 2005 ha ha, It has a snorkel !! Mini's are an ok car but I prefer trucks, something I can see over the other cars with. I can remember when I used to jump out of my treehouse with a small tarp. Really didn't work all that well. oh well HeatherGarbage bags do not make good parachutes.

BenHall 0 #10 March 1, 2005 Haha yes! I've done the exact same thing as the second pic! We used to use bedsheets, but the poncho's are ZP, so I use those now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
