OrangeJumper 0 #1 February 8, 2005 thing you have ever seen around the bonfire? I'm new so my stories are limited. The craziest thing I've seen so far is someone put a primer can into the fire without most people noticing. Needless to say, about 10 minutes later, the can explodes. I probably jumped high enough to fully deployed a base canopy on the way down. I don't think I have ever seen that many people jump/scream in complete unison. I know, mine sucks but it's all I got. Well, there is that toe licking story, right Addie.....hmmm hmmm The Original Cabana Boy! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brains 2 #6 February 8, 2005 I watched as our DZO was pouring avgas onto the pile of wood for the bonfire and here comes dz.commer christoofar with a lighter. Yup, flash and the dzo is running away with his fleece smoking, no hair left on his hands or face and very pissed off. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

Kris 0 #9 February 8, 2005 I was at an unnamed DZ a few years back, taking the BIC course. Someone had a car there that they were pissed off at and didn't want to pay to repair again. So, into the bonfire it went. Man, that was impressive. It had a full tank of gas, too. Luckily, they were smart enough to take off the gas cap so pressure wouldn't build. The gas would still boil, then shoot out the opening, and then the flame-thrower was going. They dropped it off at a salvage yard before dawn. Heh...good stuff.Sky, Muff Bro, Rodriguez Bro, and Bastion of Purity and Innocence!™ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

livendive 8 #12 February 8, 2005 Had a friend of mine do that...ended up bumping him out of the tent that night and made him sleep in the truck because we couldn't sleep with all of his crying. Saw another guy try to do a cartwheel through the bonfire, with the obvious results...burned palms and missing eyebrows, eyelashes, and bangs. Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"

livendive 8 #13 February 8, 2005 Besides an unbelievably large bonfire (the year we burned the remainder of Lodi's old hangar), I'm only coming up with one off the top of my head. Was visiting another DZ, to which a jumper had his new main shipped. Well he was out of town when it came in, so a certain jumper hooked it up in his own rig just so he could razz the guy about having put the first jump on it. He hooked it and swooped the bonfire, but had to lay out for one reason or another and the brand new canopy fell into it. If I remember correctly, it was repairable, but can you imagine trying to explain what happened to the owner? LOL Blues, Dave"I AM A PROFESSIONAL EXTREME ATHLETE!"
