jumpergirl 0 #52 April 20, 2004 Hey, wait a minute... aren't you a celebrity who skydives?*** Well, yeah, but that's beside the point. We're talking about other celebrities who skydive. You and I... well, we're just the really well known ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skyminxx 0 #54 April 20, 2004 I was shown a picture from this jump by the cameraman on the way up to altitude this weekend. The picture is very cool: It has TW doing a tandem and four knights tracking off in the background...

PhreeZone 20 #58 April 20, 2004 >I also know that Bob Sinclair took Johnny Carson on a tandem... Not exactly... Bob took Johnny on a "Buddy Jump". This was in the days before AFF and the only ways to learn was via Static line. Bob did a harness hold jump with Johnny and they did a complete freefall. Jonny did the jump in the 60's and Tandems were'nt invented intill the mid 80's.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
