Missed death by a few mm
Well I guess that's how close they dare go
I like the comment "if he had smaller balls he would have made it"
is that called a touch and go
that is not good, it's scary!
Reading an article by the bloke, he said that he was trying to catch the black balloon with his toe as he went past - the balloon that was fixed
directly to the rock *without* a significant length of string - at 120mph on a steep glide path...
He's very lucky to have enough brain power left after the impact to pull his chute, even though it didn't have enough time to deploy fully,
leaving him with a heavy landing. Without that chute he'd have been spread over the rocks like jam...
Another few views here.
He looks like a flying goth in that suit, lol
I would think jumping in front of a bus would be slightly more efficient. If you want fame, get someone else to film.
wonder how much the rescue cost the taxpayer? Little or no sympathy here im afraid
That happened in Cape Town - the authorities debated fining him the costs as he had been denied permission to jump but decided against it.
