OR...Find the guy who's banging your girlfriend and nail him. That'll teach her! But remember - it doesn't matter which side of the dick you're on - you're still gay. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member -

I was waiting for the flames (Calvin always whines - figured that out before I ever started BASE) Trust me, it was considered long and hard, but I choose not to shelter my children from what I do. I get shot at for a living, the last thing I want is for my children to let any fear conquer them. Now she screams and shouts and BEGS me to do it again. Would it be better for me to have conceded to her fears and thus let her harbor anxiety about it forever? I think not, but I respect your opinion.

So I gotta share this picture Blondie took over the weekend. Here's the predicate: My daughter (she's 4) watched me jump this weekend for the first time. She's seen me skydive plenty, but she had a little trouble wrapping her cute little head around daddy jumping off the great big bridge. It absolutely crushed me, but she had to conquer her fear. She was fine after the first one - thought it was cool. See that face? Look forward to that all you new daddies! - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

Yes... Mammilian Diving Reflex Specifically peripheral vasoconstriction. But it takes years to master - and is independant of immersion hypothermia. Now the reason frostbite occurs in air is due to the body's natural peripheral vasocontriction in rescue mode, but again - in cold water - all bets are off. You're screwed. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

Navy Dive School - hell week swimming pool water was pumped through a chiller to stay at 53 degrees (12C). The purpose was to onset mild hypothermia to create a stress environment. Immersion hypothermia takes heat from you at 5+ times the rate of air. Unless you were actively finning (and these were some very fit young bucks) you began shivering within a minute or so. The shivering was uncontrollable within 5. At 10 you lost control of your bladder and started to see the wizard. That was with swim trunks, a t-shirt, and scuba tanks on - not a rig and layers of clothing. Mikhail, God bless him, had very little chance if any at all judging from the reports. Just some shitty circumstances. It had to be horrifying. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

Liberia, the third home of internet fraud and government corruption behind Nigeria and Ghana. Give the local honcho $20 a jumper and they'd close the bridge for the event. They might jack you at the bottom for another $50 after two regime changes during freefall and the canopy ride, but at least they're open about it...unlike our NPS goofy troopers. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

I dont know if you were serious, but the fuel used in a life flight is about 2% of the cost of the flight itself, its actualy pretty much less than 20% of all heli costs. average patient paid Life Flight-8000 USD. time used in heli for life flight (spool up, get to site, fly patient to hospital, fly back to heli base) about 1 hour. fuel drain in bell 205 in one hour-210lbs jet A (35gal) average US price for jet A- 4.20$ gallon price of fuel for one hour life flight-150 $ Damn dood - analysis paralysis. You are correct sir, but I was trying to simplify the point that insurance=good thing for newbie base jumper. I wasn't trying to attest to the weight of an unladen African swallow. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

Buy health insurance - so the TF community doesn't have to absorb your health costs in the event of an accident. That's one of the best things you can do for the locals as well as your family...imho. Helicopters suck a shitload of gas. Good luck and have fun. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

Grillin dead animal parts. Patron will be on ice. Blondie invited friends. Be at the park by noonish. Bring your pasty white asses by the Trailblazer between jumps and get some sun...please. Hugs and kisses... - Chris - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

Congrats mate. Just for perspective, while driving past a crane downtown - my 4 y.o. daughter looks up and says, "Daddy, could we jump that?" and she emphasized the WE. Try as we might - we can't keep them from getting our vision. And it's a very rewarding fright. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member

I'll submit the testosterone vote and say the element I'd rather jump first - is Milla Jovovich. LeeLoo But I'm a phreak like that. - Harvey, BASE 1232 TAN-I, IAD-I, S&TA BLiNC Magazine Team Member
