anyways thanks again

========================

im surprised they didnt make a bigger deal of her hitting the flag...

i mean, life was over when she had a 180 on a bridge.

2) Please do not stand on top of the handrail.

The transportation department, which owns the bridge, has asked that jumpers not stand on top of the handrail because it distracts motorists, and they are concerned that it may cause motor vehicle accidents on the bridge. The bridge is the main entry to town from the interstate, and accidents on the bridge back traffic up all the way through town.

I saw them jumpin from the rail many times during the show. WTF?

Maybe the rule should read "Don't jump from the rail unless you have acquired a film permit from the proper authorities."

Which, I would bet dollars to donuts that they did have.

Thanks for the tip!

and at 1am for those of us that were out doing something "productive"

Nice jump

Let's see what it would take to get the NPS and the Discovery Channel to allow us to do an episode from El Cap!

Those shots of jumping off the top of the handrail were from like 6 years ago. Man, those were the days...

All I have to say is, Marta you kick ass! You are such a cutie . They seemed excited to "...have a girl on the show." Thanks for making us look so good!

Sweetness. Can't wait to see it.

nice jump marta....I'll have to agree she is quite the hottie....jimmies one lucky dude....

keep up the great work

Damn,
Nice job Marta.
We (ATL crew)got a similar call from a well know energy drink a couple of years back to perform the exact same jump. It was for the sales and marketing staff at a conference in WV. They found themselfs at a very well know take out area after a rafting trip....When all of the sudden two jumpers on top of a truck fell off... some 850+, only to be saved by their parachutes. Only exception was it was not exactly approved or the traffic stopped. Cant forget the peoples eyes seeing two guys surfing the truck.

Pretty damn cool seeing the frist jumper look back at me a ask....was that the 7th or 8th expansion joint??? and then dissapear off the truck...only to be reunited back again in free fall.

Love those moving truck jumps.

Seem to remember another Zoo load off a camper (allthough stopped )

AAHHHH

Glad to see you do it right.

Hope you all are doin well.
