Hmmm, let me host it on youtube then. BRB
Vid works for me. Also thanks for the call ya homo.
I don’t have any software to ratate the video. Try this FB link?
Wow, works now. That is crazy. The same gene that doesn’t allow me to be truly fast on a motorcycle I think would prohibit me from trusting my life to knots I tied myself… I call it the “gotta go to work on Monday” gene.
The vids make you appreciate the height (and lunacy)
:tup:
Yeah. I use 2 dynamic ropes rated at 4500 lb MBS and one safety rope rated at 8500 lb MBS. All the anchors are double or triple reinforced. We’re pretty careful about everything, and I have very nice gear.
Vids are uploading now, but taking forever. I’ll probably post them in the morning.
And I must say that although I didn’t jump this time, it’s fairly impressive to see how much Newman sets this stuff up. Definitely inspires some confidence. Jumping off a 200’ bridge confidence? Debatable, but still. lol He seems to know what he’s doing and doesn’t take any chances with the set up. :tup:
I got some vid of newman from the top.For some reason it wont embed the vid so use the link
Was a fun time.I got a short rappeling lesson and jumped 2nd.Im going to buy my own harness tomorrow
So sweet. Love it.

Brent buy a full body harness… it’ll probably prove to be worth it.
Paulo showed me the vid on his camera…made my palms sweaty. You guys are nuts, in a good way:)
Anyone know of any other tall/wide bridges? Arches would be ideal. The new 219 bridge is going to need to get done. But that’s gonna need to be a stealthy operation…
As promised. This shit is no joke.
Whats the jolt feel like when you finally hit the bottom of the jump? Looks like it hurt from the first vid paulo just posted. I don’t know if those ropes have any give to them that would help cushion the blow before the swing? Looks like a good time :tup:
So dope.
So crazy. :tup:
The ropes are actually very stretchy. The main ropes are a pair of dynamic ropes which can stretch up to 30%. The jolt looks violent, but it’s really not bad at all.
Did he find his hat?
Paulo retrieved it for me with a stick. Haha. 
Yea, I had been in the water like 4 times by that point so what was one more trip lol.
yes!!!
i had such an insane boner on the way down.
paulo ftw that day, got the rope,hats and footage
Holy Fuck. Rappelling is one thing, but that rope swing is beyond crazy.
