25,000 ft jump - WITHOUT a Parachute

Blimey - The barmpot did NOT hit the middle of the net ...

- entered the net near to the side.

i had the same idea years ago. I took out a life insurance policy in case
i croaked - to pay for funeral. £8 a month. Cancelled it after a year.

But I thought if I got something like cancer - I could just go to Hawaii and parachute straight into a volcano. Just don't pull the ripcord - straight into the volcano.

He's got better aim than Rooney.

25,000ft into a net? He's lucky he didn't come out the other side like chips!

He deliberately turned over onto his back - facing the net, as planned - a few hundred yards before impact ....probably to protect his face, hands, etc on impact .....

But, it may have been so he would not know if he was going to miss the net.

Worth a watch

Wow, that's incredible. Some will say they're crazy but I say they're immensely brave.

I can't even climb a ladder without feeling dizzy.

Thanks Poppy.

this is nuts............i suppose if he misses it will be death on impact which is better than 5-10 years in a nursing home!........thats the only upside i can think of

WTF must have had an emergency parachute just incase he wasn't in line when his fellow jumpers released theirs.

i dont see any point of this

Very brave, I got giddy just looking at the link.


didn't even open it.

scary stuff

what's next - naked jumper on a horse? with a shotgun shooting weather baloons on the way down? landing in a lake of jello.

What's the point of anything then? I think it's fantastic. Pishes all over matey who sky dived from space.

Brilliant stuff, the buzz must be incredible.

If I tried that there would be a strange brown trail in the sky.
