Sport is a free magazine given out on Friday's at tube stations and train stations throughout London (may be further afield too), so reaches quite a large UK audience.

Front cover of today's is a picture of Felix, and a full article about him. As usual not completely factual, and feeds the idea (by saying it in the first sentence) that BASE is an illegal sport.

nice, that I hope this thread is going to be fun: Felix bashing is always exiting!!!
I liked this:

Hey Spacy, what was the stuff you teached Felix???
Hope to see you (and not your student) soon again at the ITW!

"When I became the Bridge Day champion back in 1997"
Was that Bridge Day in WV? wtf?

"When I became the Bridge Day champion back in 1997"

Did he get in the ring and box the bridge?!

Yes it was. He was the overall winner on his 35th BASE jump if I am not mistaken. He did a flawless acro (double backloop/half twist (IRRC)), on heading opening, and 8cm from deadcenter on the accuracy pad.
Hope this helps,
take care,

I was teaching BASE. IMHO one should meet a person and then diss them or not based on their meeting with them. One should not be a sheep and accept other's opinions. One should go into it with an open mind but not forgetting other's opinions. But it is a nice game "Felix Bashing"
See ya in the spring. Missed ya at the fest.
Take care,
