iBASEjump
Nitro Circus on MTV has really motivated me to learn how to BASE jump, and I found this game called iBASEjump and it's pretty fun, and it simulates how BASE jumping would work I think.

But it doesn't go into any detail of how to actually pack the parachute, you just tap the screen to open the parachute. there are a lot of realistic levels to jump off at least. I can't find any other BASE jumping games out there. Does anyone know of more games?

The only good object to BASE jump in my area is the Chesapeake Bay Bridge outside of Washington DC which is 200ft tall at the apex. This bridge isn't in the game, but I wanted to know if anyone else has jumped this bridge? it is a very highly used bridge with traffic almost 24 hours a day.

I think this would be very illegal to jump off of too, but I was thinking some of my buddies could meet me in the water with a Bayliner and get me out of there in time.

Throw a goat off, if it lives, its not high enough to BASE jump.

Re: [saveourgoats] iBASEjump
i have fished under that bridge for years. PM me when you jump it, fishing is always better in that area with a little chum!

Get an iPhone I beleive it has an App for packing.

Once you learn to pack go to the old Lesner Bridge and jump that, its about 70' so you have go slider up.

yeah...but it'll probobly drown in the Bay...making the results inaccurate, I suggest dropping a sea lion...if you can aquire such a creature.

Re: [saveourgoats] iBASEjump
I think there are some younger jumpers in New York, not too far from you, that learned how to BASE jump using video games. Rumor has it they have been practicing off apartment buildings.

Try contacting them for some training.

Wow those Nitro Circus dudes are so cool huh.

I think there was a game that had a baby crying and you would shake the phone to get it to stop crying! Then some no good do gooders came in and made them get rid of the game....... Frown
Thats how I'm going to learn to be a parent!

Owning a Bayliner is like wearing wranglers to high school. You're just plain gay if you do either one!

Besides, the goat would definitely be dead. What you'd have to do is autopsy the goat after pull it from the drink. If it has water in it's lungs, it drown; if not, it died on impact. It's a lot of work and I'm about sick of cutting goats open.

Re: [saveourgoats] iBASEjump
You should leave the goat saving to someone who is actually smarter than the goats. Or do they have an app for that too?
