bobsled92 0 #7 February 5, 2003 I love it when people say"Oh I know if you fell off a skyscraper or out of a jet you would be knocked out before you hit the ground due to your neck breaking while tumbling in the air...true story, ya." I say yep! me and all my buddies with our flopping broken necks, go out at that altitude several times evey weekend...Oh! pass me my neck brace...aw never mind since I've been dead since my first jump 11years ago. _______________________________ If I could be a Super Hero, I chose to be: "GRANT-A-CLAUS". and work 365 days a Year. http://www.hangout.no/speednews/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest #22 February 5, 2003 It occasionally happens, and it's quite strange. I think, however, that there is a difference between whuffos and wannabe types. A whuffo simply questions the skydiver's rationale, perhaps denouncing him as "nuts". A wannabe is a phony, a pretender, who is readily transparent to those who are the real deal. Oddly enough, this behavior is believed to be pathological. It's called "pseudologica fantastica". Here is a Guardian (UK) report on phony vets and those who make a personal crusade out of busting them. -------------- "Larry Bailey, another former SEAL who works with Zellers, said many people who lie about being SEALs are actually successful in their jobs. "But there's a vacuum inside their egos. They lack self-esteem, so they claim to be something that sounds exciting," said Bailey, of Alexandria, Va. Young said he thinks that the fake SEALs fabricate these stories to impress women, co-workers and prospective employers. "Some of them have been lying to their wives and kids for years," he said. ------------------- Of course, being a phony-wannabe skydiver is just plain silly, but being a phony vet is downright despicable, at least to me."The mouse does not know life until it is in the mouth of the cat."
