Base jumper and the Cops

Yeah, his perfect somersault deployed the canopy perfectly. But if he'd fallen off that ledge and down into his canopy.....dead meat. Plus the wind could have pulled him off. Or it could have gotten snagged on the bridge.....

Yup! That dude is fn waaaaaaaaasted!!!! [Beer]

So I don't get the big deal on why that is illegal?

So he wants to jump off a bridge, maybe his friends did it?? [ROFL1]

When I was a skydiver, USPA was only a membership thing, wasn't any "license" involved. Kinda being in the NRA. Ya pays your money and ya gets a card. Nothing else.

Finally gotta watch it on YouTube. Badass jump[Beer]

Now you gotta have your A card to buy new gear or get on a lift. I could see getting around this BASE jumping but don't think anyone would be that stupid.

The pre deployed chute is more common than you would think. I can not find the video I am looking for.

Im pretty sure he had some beers in him. At the 2:20 mark he was wobbling a little! Definitely not his first rodeo though! Very awesome
