quade 4 #28 June 10, 2003 Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Did I miss it or what!?!? Where the heck was the DEMO jump? I mean, the SkyRay thing was cool and all, but come on, I have a feeling that all it really took for Felix to pull that off was getting the funding from Red Bull. However, the DEMO would have proved some real chops and I was looking forward to seeing that. I had gotten such a wonderful description of it and I was SOOOooo looking forward to it. Was I out of the room when that happened or did they just not show that at all? I can't find it scanning the TiVo.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought he actually flipped through his lines on opening. It just didn't look right or safe for that matter.

mjosparky 4 #32 June 10, 2003 Kate, I saw most of it and some of those people are nuts. Kinda got a lump in my throat when Harry got the award for best stunt. He too will be missed. MichaelMy idea of a fair fight is clubbing baby seals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cpoxon 0 #33 October 28, 2003 QuoteUSA network, Monday, 9 June (don't know what time in your area). It's supposedly being shown in 65 countries, so check your local networks. This aired in the UK on the satellite channel, Sky One, on Friday the 24th of October, 2003. I captured it, and edited it for the skydiving/BASE stunts, awards and the tribute to Harry. The running time is just under 20 minutes and the file size is 46 MB. You'll need Windows Media Player to view it and you can find it on SkydivingMovies.com It's a shame they didn't show the demo. Especially since the the preparation and rehersal were shown in the Xtremists programme aired on British TV not long ago. They featured the "race" in the programme so the actual demo is curious by it's absence.Skydiving Fatalities - Cease not to learn 'til thou cease to live Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I've heard of the dude, and his quotes around that event, he kinda had it coming. "I want to be known as a God of the sky." What's that shit? Not bashing, just giving my $.02.
