howardwhite 6 #1 August 12, 2009 The cause of skydiving in the mass media is further enhanced this week by the inclusion of a scene in "The Goods," a new Will Ferrell movie. Note that the pilot of a King Air waves back at the jumper in the door of a Twin Otter. The jumper is wearing a back pack, which, remarkably, stays on. Among the things that falls out is a purple dildo. Def on my weekend movie list. HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

howardwhite 6 #3 August 12, 2009 From a web notice: QuoteThis is a new red-band clip from The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard, featuring Jeremy Piven, Gina Gershon, Will Ferrell, and a backpack full of dildos and lube. Also, Will Ferrell is dressed like Abe Lincoln. Though for some reason he’s sporting a mutton-chop-sideburns combo, which, although sweet, differs from Lincoln’s well-publicized preference for an Amish-style chin strap. (In case you doubted my reportage.) HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #4 August 14, 2009 The photo "goods4.jpg" reminds me of a concealed rig that Jake Brake built a few years back. It looked like a day-pack, but was only held on by Velcro. It was sewn to the main bridle, so when the stunt man tossed his main pilot chute, the (fake) day-pack tore off, revealing a regular skydiving rig.

diablopilot 2 #5 August 24, 2009 Howard, I think I've solved the aircraft discongruity for you. The shots, both door and cockpit appear to be a Cessna Caravan.---------------------------------------------- You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

howardwhite 6 #6 August 25, 2009 You might be right. It's been several years since I've jumped out of a Caravan (not that I'm sorry about that.) HW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont know if there are others that look just like that but this looks like a caravan!Nothing opens like a Deere! You ignorant fool! Checks are for workers!
