DuffMan 266 Report post Posted October 14, 2012 To be fair his visor had misted up and froze so he couldn't see the ground. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted October 14, 2012 I'm not 100% sure but I think the chute was automatic, not something he controlled (unless he had to). In anycase once he stepped off that platform he was GONE. Perfect standing landing. edit: wiki says he pulled the chute. what-evs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted October 15, 2012 I think i would have pulled the cord early if i was traveling faster than the speed of sound with less than 5% visibility through my visor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darth Sexy 316 Report post Posted October 16, 2012 Apparently jumping off Cristo Redentor wasn't enough for him. Crazy, but impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazee 204 Report post Posted October 17, 2012 That looks like fun, think i'd get bored on the way up though, so i'd have to take a crossword book or maybe a rubik's cube. Also don't like how you could spin out of control so much that you could pass out, they'd have to fix that before i'd do it. Just thought of something that would suck ass, imagine if you went to a theme park but had narcolepsy and fell asleep every time a ride started, then woke up after it had just finished and then had to wait in line for another half hour. Damn. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
