lawrocket 3 #1 January 14, 2005 I saw a story about the world's largest blimp in Japan making its maiden flight. I'm wondering if anyone here has ever been able to jump from one. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

John4455 0 #3 January 18, 2005 When ever the Carolina Panthers or Charlotte Nascar race, are in town and there is a Blimp filming, they park it at our dz airport. No one has ever got to jump it, but that is not due to lack of begging..... How do ya like it Johnny? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
howardwhite 6 #4 January 18, 2005 Tom McLaughlin jumped out of the Hood blimp into the Children's Museum in Boston. Very hairy because he had to land on a small dock area a few feet from the water. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

upndownshop 0 #6 January 23, 2005 I have photos of Jerry Schrimsher jumping from the Good Year blimp, I believe it was in the early 70's, maybe the late 60's. The rig he used was a security system originally built for rounds, but when he got the first paraplane square he cut the side flaps down so the square would fit snug. So its hard to tell the date by the equipment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
