PhreeZone 20 #26 October 17, 2002 Did any one see the minor mistake the person that chopped did? And the WFFC video shows hes not that polite after all...

Snowbird 0 #28 October 17, 2002 According to the TLC website, it's on again on October 20, at 3pm ET. Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea. -Robert A. Heinlein Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #29 October 17, 2002 I turned it on just about the time they were showing the Dana Bowman collision. I thought it was decent coverage for a whuffo show. Like Ice-T says "I'm a Pussy!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weegegirl 2 #30 October 17, 2002 Decent coverage... true. But Ice-T is pretty laughable. I wanted to smack him a few times. sorry. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnny1488 1 #31 October 17, 2002 You should have seen him walking around the DZ like he had no clue what was going on. People were going up to him and ragging him and stuff. He even made an appearance on snow disc snow the paraski video. Johnny --"This ain't no book club, we're all gonna die!" Mike Rome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was down in Miami when they did the "Road Rules/Real World Challenge".They got the first jump course and then jumped over a big bulls-eye.Accuracy, no kidding. What a bunch of idiots. One guy kept trying to pick up dz chickies with the "hey baby, I can get you on tv" crap. One girl told him "Look bud, I deal with a bunch of hopped-up adrenaline junkies all day long. You aren't in the running". One girl nicknamed "Princess (something)" walked around with a tiara on her head all day. Puleeeeze. When she didn't win, she complained about her ankle. The mtv people said she did that every time. They live in a weird world and it makes them weird people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slotperfect 7 #33 October 17, 2002 I turned it off when the preview from 1994's GK diamond track collision came on. I saw it in person, and it is forever etched in my memory. I don't need to see it any more. I want to point out that rarely does the other jumper involved, who died later that night from internal injuries, get mentioned at all. His name was Jose Aguillon. He and I went through GK tryouts together, and traveled by ourselves to England in 1993 to do a joint demo with the Red Devils. Jose was an incredible human being, a professional soldier, and it is an honor to have called him my friend. The footage was taken by a spectator in the bleachers with a video camera. It originally aired on "A Current Affair" in June of 1994. I hope the seller is continually reminded about Jose's family flipping channels and seeing their boy die over and over again. More on this incident later, in another post, as there is much to learn from what happened so many years ago. *End of Rant*Arrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tigra 0 #34 October 17, 2002 Thank you for the reminder, SP. It is too easy to forget that there were real people involved in that accident and one of them is no longer with us. maura Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
