Brazil has a significant population of new jumpers (30 or so), but almost no one has reached 100 jumps yet. They even have a logo, an association, and these hideously ugly day-glow orange jackets.

I'll get you some contact info.

As far as I know there aren't any base jumpers in Iran, but this opinion is based more on a fairly fruitless search for skydivers than any other more informed information. I do have an email for a skydiver so PM me and I'll try and find it. The email is for the head of the FIA in Iran though but whether he knows about base jumping is another matter.

Someone is constructing a lovely big building in the north of Thehran akin to the the KL Tower. Maybe someone should jump it before the Americans or Israelis knock it down.

Hi Koos,

In respect of Ethiopia we are possibly the nearest Base jumpers. I ceratinly haven't heard of any other jumpers in this part of the world.

Can we help you at all?

By the way who are you as your profile has no data in it.

Regards
