It seems fair. I wish FOX would of had Jeb reply (which they might have and he might have declined) to Buchanan's statements. Or at least another source. But we all know how media does its thing.Unsure

BASE Jumping: Not Suicide, But Sure Looks Like It

It's actually not that bad an article.

I'll agree and ratchet the praise up a notch.
I think that TB spoke cogently when quoted as
"Some accept the risks and treat BASE jumping as a wild game of Russian roulette. Some are intrigued by the illegal side of the sport and enjoy the cat-and-mouse aspect of getting away with jumps. Some are ego-focused and groove on the notoriety of their involvement. Some are very normal people who simply take skydiving up a level, and appreciate the thrill of meeting an exceptional challenge"

that covers some of us.
Since he did not mention anyhting about; enjoying the wilderness, solitude, watching sunrises /sunsets, climbing, exercise, camraderie ........... etc. should we start a poll to see where we outliers fall?

be safe
