Damn! That was a great video! Nice Jumps!

Mahalo

you haven't learned a damn thing, have you ?

burn it all.

Seriously. If you are going to post a link, put the's on it so I dont have to copy and paste.

I'm glad I've been reminded why I screen jumpers so carefully so the objects I jump don't get posted on the all the world to see internet. An illegal jump posted for everyone to enjoy.

Im trying, one video at a time!

Oh and I hope you guys know that I post these videos of my objects just to piss you guys off. It makes me happy to know you're throwing a fit about something that doesn't even matter to you.

I withheld judgment the first time around since
the media can twist things and you are young...
but VID666 and 460 both summed up what most
of us are now thinking.

Honestly I've been pissed off enough by you folks to not care what you think, and thats why I've decided not to care, and I am going to continue to post videos of my objects. I will burn them all to the ground just watch me, and if you have a problem with it, i'll show up at your objects and post videos of where they are how I got up to the top and the jumps too. I'll probably do a news story too.

You all never offered advice, help or anything, you all just slammed me from the beginning. So this is for all you guys who love to be "BASE" jumpers. Enjoy the videos and the fire show.

Might as well call me pyro now

well, you never asked for help from me.

it doesn't bother me that you posted this. i've been around BASE nearly 20 years jumping and have seen this happen many times before. due to the diminished trust factor, what it will do for *you* though is keep you off the really, really good loads that are happening all the time, especially if do a base safari, traveling the country and world. it's generally to your benefit to gain the trust of the community so you can enjoy all the other secret BASE sites. that's all.

 

The canopy control on the 2nd and 3rd jumper seems weak at best. Lots of swinging from under the canopy and surges. Keep jumping objects like that and be sure to also upload the car strikes that result.

I'm sometimes guilty of it too. What does everyone else think?

2nd guy sucks at canopy control, BASE & skydiving we are working on him at the DZ, however, he fails to listen. I honestly think he will break his legs before he learns his lesson. Jumper #3, that was his first B. He is a really good canopy pilot, I think it was just the nervous factor.

We had a local jumper make a car strike, he decided to jump while intoxicated. No video tho, sorry I don't carry that thing with me on every jump, and I don't want to.

and about the BASE safari thing, if I miss out, well that sucks, but I guess its the price I pay right? I don't know if I would want to hang out with people who don't want to hang out with me anyway though. Seems like a lot of the community is just full of hate. I've met good guys jumping, none of them on the internet. . . I guess I'll just stick with them. We have our own 'safari's planned.

Um, were the cars at the very end of the video part of your crew? If not, the overriding impression is that your biggest concern is getting arrested, not burning objects.
Not that you give a rusty fuck, but just for common-sense's sake, i would add that you DO realize that you're increasing your own bust factor by posting shit on youtube, right? I mean, i could care less what you burn on your own island, but you're really hosing yourself. No hatefullness intended, but why screw yourself over? just sayin'...

Oh, and I would love help/mentorship i've been blindly asking for that from the beginning when I started BASE a year and a half ago at the perrine.

I will say that whenever visiting other places. I don't take my camera, I let the locals bring their own, and do what they will with the footage. I've never burnt anything down, yet.

The buildings in hawaii arn't smoking, and no matter how many videos I post, I've never seen a lock on a door, or a camera, nothing. Sure maybe we just need to give them time, but hey I did the work to open them up, so if they are burnt then in the long run its no loss to the community that hates me anyway.

I am a respectful jumper, I listen to people who are here next to me. But when I am running the show, I can do what I want. When I go elsewhere you are the boss, but here this is my home and my objects. I can do what I want, its not like you guys jump here anyway. If you did then you would probably want to talk to me first anyway, unless you are that LEGENDARY BASE JUMPER MAD SKILLS PERSON.

So I guess I have my own 'ethical code' that I abide by. If you disagree with it, then sorry don't be my friend. Honestly I didn't want to be your friend either. I have enough good people to jump with anyway.

This isn't directed at anyone in particular, but I am just sayin. I am at the point now where I am just posting these videos to get a reaction out of you all, because I like to throw it in people's faces.

I understand that, however, I know getting caught is bound to happen. The only real thing they can get us for is trespassing which causes us to be banned from a site for a year. After that we can go again until caught again.

I've never been to the Perrine. I've taught numerous students over many years with nothing asked for but friendship and beer, so I have hard time understanding your point of view.

You also have to realize that like any activity, there are assholes and other people who might become life long friends. Also though, realize the truth of this; BASE jumpers are highly opinionated and somewhat volatile. What do BASE jumpers use for birth control? ... Their personalities.

As example of a load I co-organized with a jumper I *trusted*, we got on a freight train, rode it 50 miles, climbed on top at 50 mph, and jumped in a 300 foot gorge.

I find it interesting that someone who purports to not care about our opinions addresses every one of our dumb posts.

you seem very immature, at best.
good luck!

No you are right, I am deleting my account

C'mon meow, I triple dare you to never come back here.

cmon TK, thats not very aloha my friend. live and let live!!!!!!!!!

As i think some shady Russian once said,
"harden the fuck up"

(yes, TK, if you're still reading, i did just hijack your post to pick on someone else) ha ha ha

hi pyro! in their own sick and twisted way, they are offering you advice now. it's not pretty but if it hurts too much there's the BASE BEGINNERS forum you can post to without fear of flaming.

i fantasize about burning down the sweetest of exit points...you're living the dream, and all the naysayers are just jealous mofos...

read the posts. can you find a newbie coming to these forums, expressing a desire to jump, and greeted warmly?

if you tried, and heard only crickets respond, well, that is normal.

the slamming you received from the previous video caused you to turn defensive. you could have chosen to realize they commented because they care. that could have been a wake up call. that track could have opened doors for you.

but hey, this is BASE.
make your call.
live with the consequences.

Do I read a nugget here? You don't listen but complain about somebody else not listening? Way to go!

Having read your posts, with your look at me, look at me, fuck you attitude I am reminded of this.

I'd rather be an old fart, than a young dickhead....
