The most realistic BASE jump into dancing scene. ever.

you don't need to

A) watch the whole thing
B) turn the volume on.

Wow.

Fastforward to -2:30, and do not turn the sound up.

yeah...take me away. away to a place where i never have to watch that video or hear that song again!

I'm thinking the song and video are a tribute to Nick D G and his generation. The last time anyone jumped gear like that out of a building had to be early/mid eighties.

that was fucking painful. except that hot blonde in the white shirt. that was nice.

those looked like surplus SAR rigs...

MC-XX Military Freefall (HALO) rig - old school. With nothing in it apparently.

Ask DaveO - he wore one for quite some time.

Natasha Bedingfield learns to sky-dive

(What's this?)Natasha Bedingfield has just learned to sky-dive.

The singer told me: "I've done a few base jumps and I'm planning a bigger stunt near Everest in September to raise money for my mother's charity, Global Angels. I'm also going to sell some clothes on eBay to raise cash for it."

So you can all laugh, but that shit's real. I read it in the papers.

Oh, excuse me...I didn't know it was printed. That changes everything! Anything printed in a paper or posted on the internet has got to be true.

Shit man. You're right. I never really thought of it like that.

Man I feel fucking stupid now. This is really embarrassing for me.

If only I could learn to think before I open my big mouth.

Gutted.

Typing with your mouth is armless, not gutted...
Unless of course your are armless and gutted.
Kind of a medieval thought...

Be careful what you write, people might think you are trying to make use of what they call a sense of humour. Like you, I believe what I read and bugger those who tell us any different. Don't feel stupid, they just don't understand that we are part of an exclusive group of people and in time they will come to realize that everything that is written down is proof of its reality and then they will feel stupid.

...Bet you can't lick your elbow!

Here's to those who wear tights and pull with their toes!
