I saw weegegirl on FOX!

Recommended Posts

Cool!

I didn't see the Fox thing but I have the live Channel 12 footage from BridgeDay. I don't know weegegirl to see her. What does she look like and approx what time (12 to 3) was her jump so I can check to see if they got her.

CONGRATS!!!!!!!! That is super cool. What a great clip to show at a high school reunion (rub it in on how cool you are:D) or family function that needs spicing up.

Hope the ankle is better:)

Thanks!

It really wasn't that bad. Honestly. I hit the landing area fine, and what would have been a normal stand up landing fumbled a bit when my foot slid on a wet slick rock and I rolled my ankle. I sort of fell forward to my hands and knees and then hopped right up about 1/2 a second later. I did have a pained look in my face because, shit, it kinda hurt. :P

What do you expect honestly? Of course they threw in tons of extra drama - "Only one chance..." "8 seconds till IMPACT..." "blah blah blah..." My landing was only about a 3 second clip and in general it was a positive review. I don't think the media will ever change to a happy, safe image of our sport - whuffos wouldn't find it as interesting.

Does anybody know when the rest of the Bridge Day coverage is going to air? I searched the Base forum, but wasn't able to find it.



As far as I know the coverage was live that day and wasn't scheduled to be repeated. Is there some specific coverage you're thinking of?

So you and your man are now officially cool BASE jumping skydiver types????

2005 will be a whole new year for me...perhaps that will be another exciting thing I do. Right now I'd like to focus on trying out snowboarding somewhere fun, with perhaps a butt load of gorgeous people :)
Congrats sistah!

Dreams become reality, one choice at a time...

The following is from the last email Jason sent out to the B-day registrants:

A condensed one-hour version of the live TV broadcast will air on the Outdoor Life Network (OLN) on November 12 from 12:30-1:30pm EST and on December 9 from 12-1pm EST...
