Wow...yeah...I'm nowhere near that adventurous.

Holy sh*t!!!!!

In my younger days, I was a skydiver, but I never did the base jumping thing. Airplanes...I loved me some airplanes for jumping out of.

My dive buddy is one of the pioneers of basejumping. Also used to race downhill, his personal best is, I think, 221kph on skis. The stories are great when we are away and I'm board. Scuba really slowed him down.

I would hate to be flying behind a buddy and have him scare up a bird for me to run into.

LOVE IT!!!

I have a few jumps in a wing suit, but like Vercingetorix all from airplanes. I had a few opportunities to do some base jumping but never had the b***s to do it. That looks so damn awesome, talk about no room for error. I love it how regular base jumping became boring to these guys, so "Lets see how close to the ground we can get!"

Nothing makes you feel so alive, as fresh skin (covering the scraped knuckles).
