red bull base jump in Turkey
Thanks to Mr. Ueli Gegenschatz and Red Bull for their efforts on burning an object in Turkey. It was even in the prime time News on TV.
When doing it for sponsors all the rules&ethics shit seem to get out of the way. I should better be working on some sponsorship arrangements now.

Re: [bes] red bull base jump in Turkey
Any more details?

How did the Red Bull Air Force burn it? Did you jump it on a consistent basis? Can you jump it now? If no, what stops you from doing it? Are you mad the RBAF didn't invite you?

Blanket accusations shouldn't fly here, or anywhere. People have thier own opinions about the RBAF, but I need to have more details to understand what you mean.

I said "EFFORTS to burn" and upon a phone call, cops can easily be there in 10 minutes. It's THAT kinda middle of nowhere. Jumps done on the object is not the only way to measure its value. What about future jumps? Yeah, we should be jumping more before someone makes it harder to. Is that it?

Isn't turkey where they filmed that movie about the dude who smuggled smack or hash and got buttfucked in some dungeon from hell??? Hell, burn that bridge, literally, let's get the army corp of engineers to do it, c4 style!!!
Shortcut
Midnight Express
Fan-fucking-tastic film!!!

Yeah, a guy gets busted with
hash and is sent to a Turkish
prison where stabbing people
below the waist is acceptable.

No, he does not get buggard
but he does freak out and go
ape shit on a jerk in that bad
dungeon who deserved it!!

Really powerful scene, ranks
right up their with
Deer Hunter,
Deliverance, Apocolyspe Now,
and Requiem for a Dream.

Re: [robibird] red bull base jump in Turkey
Robi,

Red Bull jumpers don't enjoy the jump. To them it is just work. Maybe they enjoy burning stuff?
