Rdutch 0 #1 July 1, 2003 Well I haven't been on for a while but if it hasn't been said, Jari of Birdman was on CNN Saturday with a replay Sunday. It was a great interview, and I hope someone has it to put on the web. I recorded it on vhs, luckily Jari was out partying with me on my birthday and told me about it, so I knew in advance. Could you believe the non skydiving producers wanted him to be filmed waking up in his birdman suit, and eating breakfast and going to the dz, like (Jari the Birdman). It ended up a very educational, an well done peice, nothing stupid, Jari explained it all well. Jari is a class act and very well spoken, and all of us birdmen were done proud. Anytime someone from our community makes us look good to the unknowing community, we all gain something. Jari has taken one from the realtv vidiots and given one back to us skydiver's. Blue ones Ray Small and fast what every girl dreams of! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poohbeer 0 #2 July 1, 2003 you've got it on vhs, you should put it on the web! Easily done if you've got a TV card in your pc. ------- SIGNATURE BELOW ------- Complete newbie at skydiving, so be critical about what I say!!

flyhi 24 #3 July 1, 2003 I was eating pizza and drinking beer when it came on. Definitely the hat trick for a non-jumping Saturday. Very well done by all concerned. Whuffo family members were highly impressed. Great video shown, too.Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

outofit 0 #5 July 1, 2003 unfortunately i heard about the piece after the fact. my friend was watching it at two in the morning and said she thought about calling me and waking me up to watch it. i would like to see it if there is going to be a replay. It is better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
