How long of a static line was he doing?

Thanks.

Anyone have an e-mail for Rod F? Thanks. Scott

"although, some of those emitters i had to straddle in MD may have made me sterile." We couldn't allow freaks like you to further destroy the world with your offspring. Or as Gregor said, were just screwed.

Here is a pic looking down.

I have a picture of me on that exact spot. It is on a southern portion of the Appalachian Trail. Landing is all trees I layed on the edge and stared at it for a long time. scott

I'm a real estate agent. I can help buy that one house that always seems to be right next to that perfect "A". Then turn it into a base hostal!!

"I think you're all tough down here. This John guy might behave like a jerk. Obviously I wouldn't brag after such a rescue mission. But this could occur to anybody. I don't know him but the 911 phone call don't make me laugh at all. he's scared and did he do something to deserve what happends to him? You're all tough." I don't think that people were originally laughing at the 911 call, it was more the fact that he changed his tune when being interviewed by the news making himself sound like a cool death defying base jumper. I have not listened to any of the news reports but from what I have read here they are very Jekyll and Hyde..

I don't see anything wrong with inking yourself up with images of hobbies or sports your into. I just would have had a better artist put that ink in.

I think I remember Todd saying they were not going to make them anymore unless someone really wanted one. But I could be wrong that was a few months ago.

That picture gave me a shot of energy as I said to myself "I don't need to be sitting here on my ass in front of this computer"

I love my Morpeus gear but have to say the white loop is a little to Beefy. It has hung up or at least "snagged" a few times. scott

"What's all that fuzz about base-jumping... " Yeah really? That climbing shit is crazy!

Thanks, I will keep that in mind. scott

After climbing an urban crane I found the trap door locked by a cheesy little gold lock. There was no way to climb around the door so I had to climb down. I now keep my lock picks in my fag bag.

Yeah we got caught I don't know what he thought of us It turned out to be more of a pain in the butt than anything.

woah... good pilot! er bad... Um, not a bad pilot. A police helicopter called in by the cop on the ground who "thought he saw something"

"Don't climb down until somebody verbally asks you to. I have accumulated three hours of wait time on four different jumps, waiting completely frozen because I thought I had been spotted. After a while, they dissapear. If it's dark, and you don't move, they can't see you. They'll think it's a false alarm, or that they're too late. Patience is your friend, and I can think of few better places to use it than on a jumpable object in the middle of the night. I'm sure most jumpers here have stories of more impressive wait times. " Yeah that's what I thought. Until I looked out in front of me and at eye level there was a helicopter hovering inside the guy wires shining it's spot light up and down the tower.

I'll put in!

Last night I pulled out one of my PC's and did a quick check. It is not blown out, but the outer row of the stitching in the same spot has already come out. I'm still going to use it but watch it very closely. The thing that stinks is it hardly has any jumps on it Not sure about my other PC's, i'm going to check them now. Just wanted to share. scott P.S. It is made by one of the major manufactures.

In my log book it would be "other"

I agree with space, if it won't kill you with out your set up, then it's not a base jump. This reminds me of when a couple of buddies and I tried to make a make shift hang glider and jump from a 45' bridge to see if we could "sort of" glide into the water. Not the brightest thing to do but who cares if you have fun!

(Everybody knows how to drink and throw darts though.) That's for sure!! The dart thing was something someone told me when I started and it has always stuck with me.
