GPS co-ordinates
I'm fooling around with Flight Simulator here, and want to check out the popular cliff in Norway.

Can anyone tell me where to find the GPS co-ordinates?

Just a word of warning. If you post GPS coordinates here, I'll delete them. Please send that kind of information via PM or email.

SIMULATED Picture Attached

I realize that I cannot post photographs, but I do not know how close to the line this comes. Please take it off if it crosses the line Tom! Also consider that it is not realistic, at all!

A good running start from tailgate AC about 500 feet higher, that is.

On a tangent from this... in Return to Castle Wolfenstein, go to the cliff next to the dam and jump off. On a big screen, it's kind of a rush. I spent an hour or so jumping off and flipping over to my back, did some in-air flamethrower stunts, etc. Try tossing a grenade and time it just right so that you explode in mid-air.

A notable one behind this is bailing out high, taking a fat delay, and pulling low in Battlefield 1942. Video games are rad.
