Base Jumping

Nice.

I was really expecting Newman to be hurling himself off the tower of Dubai.

I would make a jump wearing a turban, I could probably fit in.

Also had my picture on the front page of two newspapers. Sorta funny.

What was that tower you guys were jumping from? The CN tower looking thing?

Just stumbled on that last pic on Reddit. lol. Did a double take and was like… shit, that’s Newman!

The Menara KL tower is what we jumped from. Something like 950’ to the exit point. I think overall it is 1400 or so.

Here are a few more pics… I didn’t take very many. There are tons of videos floating around out there too. This one was made by the event staff. I’m in it briefly doing my first triple gainer (yellow and grey magic backpack). And also deploying the chute for my buddy in the wheelchair. Had a great time there and did 85 jumps over 2 weeks.

Nice video. Did you get any night jumps?

Also, there looks to be a waste treatment facility near the tower… anyone land in the funk? :slight_smile:

Yes I did several night jumps, just not any good vid.

Here’s a tracking jump with Jason. You can see me really start to fly AWAY at about 4 seconds into the fall.

Sweet :tup:

Nice work on the landing here:

I thought there was going to be a different update in this thread :snky:

No way. :{ :{ :{

And the guy landing on the boat does have excellent canopy control. He dives it in with his front risers. Good work.

Bridge day was this weekend. This was one of the highlights. I was a little nervous, but it was totally awesome.
