Chris (Paramedic, Skydiving videographer), got BASE this last weekend with 5 jumpers making a downtown [somewhere] building jump within 45 seconds. Chris went second as he was most comfortable following someone and exitied beautifully without hesitation behind the first jumper. On landing, Chris was reminded by a kid on the street that what he did was "James Bond Shit!!". CONGRATS!!!!!


edited to remove city -- wwarped
p.s. congrats!

that's great, but obviously that kid is mistaken.

congrats.

Na not you, I do James Bond shit
Good Job!!!

Hell yea, Chris!!!! good to hear that you all are keeping active down there, come visit at the potato again some time soon!

Gee do you have to be so specific? Would you mind modifing your site naming?
Why don't you post the fucking video I know you took!

Jesus Christ! Why do you have to brag! Why can't you keep it to yourself? Fucking amatuers make me sick!

How about we post some shit about Your local shit?

Sounds like someone isn't getting any jumping in.

 
WHAT!!! there are buildings in hell-A to jump!?! I had no idea!

until now

o.k. per a request, I removed the name of the city from the OP.

I also removed the most, um, aggressive posts.

can we just tone it down?
I want to go back to the football game.

Congrats!

Ha thanks bro! that was the best shit ever! cant wait to jump something again soon! And thanks to everyone else that was on this jump and helped me do this!

Congrats Bro!!!

well done! and congrats!!!!

Thanks again everyone! its been one month since i completed BASE. got my number today...
BASE 1299. was hoping for 1300 or 1313 but 1299 is better...

Yawn! BASE numbers r gay! If evryone who completed BASE applyed for and recieved the number it would be around 3000?

So welcome to the dorks/nerdz club!

Wow now all the doors of the world will be opened to you! That green card and number on it will get you places!
I would hope we'd reached a time where Base don't mean shit. There so many "0ther" things that are fixed anyway!
Base numbers are fuck all!

Fuck that hater!! Enjoy your accomplishment.

I totally respect different strokes for different folks
but why should someone fucking care? I mean some
like country music, some like strawberry jelly, and
some like getting butt fucked, none of those things
interest me but it sure as shit does not bother me
in the least that someone right this moment could be
getting butt fucked, while listening to country music,
and eating a bagel smothered in strawberry jelly!

did you notice it was his first post?

with that attitude, he obviously is not a newbie.
so he created a new username.
logged on.
and posted a tirade.

it seems like a whole lot of effort. he must care about the topic something severe to do all that. sure wish he'd direct the energies to building something, not sniping and tearing down.

(granted, the effort isn't much that much, but aren't most folks here fat, lazy Americans? - wait, isn't that redundant? )

The poster's use of the term 'fuck all' & 'shite'
indicates to me he is not American, perhaps a brit?

o.k. don't call him names. the other post is borderline on the personal attack rule. surely you recognize that.

I'm cool with you expressing harsh displeasure at thoughts, opinions, attitudes, techniques, etc. but NOT people. we all screw up and do dumb shit. names and personal attacks deny that everyone has value.

harshness towards acts, opinions, helps point out poor judgment.

oh and I concur that he is more likely british than american. yanks rarely say shite. I was just going for the humor.
