Wow, I'm down to 21 in the list. Could it possibly mean that I have a life? (Nah, just spending too much time browsing for porn! ) But I'll still rest easy knowing I was : The Original Addict and First Veteran!

Hi there Just another question from me. I am saving up to do the FJC this coming summer. I've got a fairly good idea of what preparation to do skydiving-wise, but was wondering about the following : how important is climbing ability in BASE jumping? I am thinking of doing an indoor climbing course during the winter. (partly also out of boredom). Apart from the fact that it'll be good for my confidence, how useful is it for BASE? Will

Does this weird job involve knee pads at Kings Cross on a Sunday night?

Hi How long a gap would you find acceptable between packing and jumping a rig? Expecially now in the winter, if you hadn't jumped for say a month, would you still be happy jumping that pack job? Apart from bungies perishing and snapping, what else is there to consider? Any feedback would great (those in Florida, Arizona, California and the Southern Hemisphere can all ignore this post... ) Will

Somehow I don't think this is his first tight nylon spandex item of *clothing*...

Yep, after I cut off the original chin-cup (which was on a regular strap with a fastex clip) I kept that as a second strap (under my chin). Both the straps are on the same cutaway assembly. Will

Like a woman : 1 Take off clothing and place it in a sectioned laundry basket according to lights, darks, whites, man-made or natural. 2 Walk to the bathroom wearing long dressing gown. If husband seen along the way cover any exposed flesh and rush to the bathroom. 3 Look at womanly physique in the mirror and stick out belly. 4 Complain and whine about getting fat. 5 Get in shower. 6 Look for facecloth, armcloth, loincloth, long loofah, wide loofah and pumice stone. 7 Wash hair once with Cucumber and Lamprey shampoo with 83 added vitamins. 8 Wash hair again with Cumumber and Lamprey shampoo with 83 added vitamins. 9 Condition hair with Cucumber and Lamprey conditioner with enhanced natural crocus oil. Leave on hair for 15 minutes. 10 Wash face with crushed apricot facial scrub for 10 minutes until red raw. 11 Wash entire rest of body with ginger nut and jaffa cake bodywash. 12 Rinse conditioner off hair taking at least 15 minutes to make sure that it's all come off. 13 Scream loudly when husband flushes toilet and water loses pressure and turns red hot. 14 Turn off shower. 15 Clean all wet shower surfaces. 16 Spray mould spots with flash bathroom spray. 17 Get out of shower. 18 Dry with towel the size of a small African country. 19 Wrap hair in super absorbent second towel 20 Check entire body for remotest sign of spots. Attack with nails or tweezers if found 21 Return to bedroom wearing long dressing gown and towel on head. 22 If husband seen, cover any exposed areas and then rush to bedroom to spend half an hour getting dressed. Like a man : 1 Take off clothes while sitting on bed and leave them in a pile on the floor. 2 Walk naked to the bathroom. If wife seen, shake knob at her making "woo" sound. 3 Look at manly physique in mirror and suck in gut to see if you have pecs. 4 Admire size of knob in mirror, scratch privates and smell fingers for one last whiff. 5 Get in shower. 6 Don't bother to look for wash cloth - don't use one. 7 Wash face. 8 Wash armpits. 9 Laugh at how loud farts sound in the shower. 10 Wash privates and the surrounding area. 11 Wash butt, leaving hair on soap. 12 Shampoo hair but do not use conditioner. 13 Make shampoo Mohican. Pull back curtain to see self in mirror. 14 Pee (in shower) 15 Rinse off and get out of shower. Fail to notice water on the floor because the shower curtain has fallen outside the bath for the whole duration of your shower. 16 Partially dry off. 17 Look at self in mirror again, flex muscles and admire size of knob (again) 18 Leave shower curtain open and wet bath mat on floor. 19 Leave bathroom light on and fan on. 20 Return to bedroom with towel around waist. If you pass wife, pull off towel, grab knob, go "yeah baby" and thrust pelvis at her. 21 Put on yesterday's clothes True!

When you pack after your last jump, do you already know the nature of your next jump? (ie slider up/down etc.) If not, how do you pack it? This was just something I am curious about, seeing as how packing for skydiving can pretty much be done exactly the same way each time. Will

Have you seen the video where his canopy is caught on something, he's dangling off some cliff. What does he do? Takes off his camera and gives a little sermon into the camera to all the boys and girls who think BASE is glamorous. Well, the Aussies are already nuts, so you'd expect their BASE jumpers to be worse. jk

I've got pretty good use out of mine. Only disappointing thing was that the chincup that came with it was a piece of shit. When you pay over £300 for a helmet you expect better than that. Ended up shelling out for a Bonehead chincup (which is great). Will

Bet that was condensed and edited rather carefully... (one day I'll tell you about this dumbass who downsized from a Cruiselite '220 to a Hornet '150 and how they had to use the golf cart to get him off the landing area at Sebastian... ) I'm glad you are OK, man!

heheheheee MILF (just substitute moderator for mother) OK, I'm going to hide away now because I've been a bad boy...

Man, thats just going to push her up another notch of sexiness..... Chicks in green....

How about combining the diet with some (not too stressful) cardio training? (fast walk, rowing machine, cycling machine etc)

What 3 whole weeks???? Shit, man didn't you know that is what the internet/pr0n is for???

Hmm, sounds like the 'Body for Life' program. Eat 6 small meals a day. Regular exercize (alternating cardio and strength). With a rest day each week when you don't work out and can eat whatever you like. Am I right?

True, I remember once reading about an instructor at Empuria Brava who was killed after he had landed. Someone else flew into him and broke his neck. Maybe a good idea to keep one eye on the sky after you have landed? Will

You might also want to tie a piece of string from the goggle strap to a label inside the neck of your jumpsuit or a T-shirt (goggle straps and nose joints *have* been know to snap).

Hi Michele Glad to hear she pulled through!

You pay a florist to decorate your house for Christmas? Isn't putting up the decorations half the fun? (at least it was for my family)

Exactly! I bet the parents are fat bastards too. So, if these kids develop Type II diabetes and heart conditions, is that Mcdonald's fault, or the parents fault for taking them there in the first place? I bet when those kids were toddlers they weren't driving themselves to fast food places.... Incredible.

No, I don't think equating this to arching in a skydive is accurate. If this was a motorbike, then of course leaning right down on the fuel tank would create a lower aerodynamic profile. But I think if you view someone swooping from the front, that leaning forward is not really going to have much (if any) of an effect on their profile. I agree with you about lifting up the legs to create more drag, but don't think that this applies to leaning forward into the chest strap. I agree with the point about moving your weight forward under the canopy, but don't quite fall for this "cutting through the air" business. Will

LMFAO I was expecting something really soppy - that was friggin hilarious!

Sure, I can understand that the clothes you wear can create drag (which is why swimmers wear speedos not baggy shorts). And I understood Bob's point about putting your weight forward. But to say that you lean forward to "cut through the air" seems like a load of bollocks to me. Will
