bluepill 0 #1 June 4, 2003 A new TV show has been filmed in the UK over the last weekend for hard up "celebs", called 'Drop the Celebrity' http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2003251691,,00.html Damn shame they had to strap a tandem instructor on them before chucking em out!

Malev 0 #2 June 4, 2003 What a terrible excuse for a TV programme! I wonder how this will affect the public perception of skydiving over here though - its obviously equating skydiving with humiliation and punishment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nacmacfeegle 0 #4 June 4, 2003 If it gets skydiving on prime time TV its all good, right? But having a Herc circling with a load of unwanted celebrities sounds awfully expensive to me.....-------------------- He who receives an idea from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me.

mccordia 74 #5 June 4, 2003 I actualy witnessed something like this on Texel (Holland) last weekend. The whole crew and 'cast' from a dutch TV station was on the DZ to do tandemjumps...it looked more like a (great) company outing though...no fancy filming or anything :)JC FlyLikeBrick I'm an Athlete?
