Get him to the Greek?
I has been about 2 years now and I have been waiting for some info to come out. I did a pretty week search of the forums to no avail so I will just ask.

Who did the jump for Get him to the Greek?

Thanks,

Nate

Honestly I have no idea....but that excuse doesnt stop others from posting here so I might as well answer too ;)

I havent seen the movie but I saw a clip of it in the previews and the outfit and rig looks pretty damn close to what Douggs is wearing on the cover of his book. Not to mention I think Douggs could prob get away with being a stunt double for Russell Brand pretty easily.

Cowboy nick from NY. He did a rad job, apparently it was a small landing area and he nailed it everytime. Been meaning to see the film.

Re: [jtholmes] Get him to the Greek?
Thanks. I will sleep better tonight. I was just there and it is intimidating to say the least. The shot didnt make the movie and it isnt even in the special features on the dvd. I thought that was some BS after he risked his life for that shot. Nice jump! He didnt even have to sweat the Pork.

I wonder how hard it would be to get a permit for that?

Funny movie, well worth the time, has lots of great lines,
and the famous economist Paul Krugman does a cameo.

didnt queen latifahs fat ass base jump in that movie where shes dying and goes haywire with her pre-death to do list? I think she did a death camp course and did her own stunts, that one under a troll 390 mdv

I doubt you're serious but you do know that her stunt double is not alive anymore right?

It was a Troll MDV 265, mine actually.

...and the jumper is no longer with us.

Re: [SafetyNate] Get him to the Greek?
Just watched the movie last night and as the credits were rolling saw BASE JUMPERS: Nicholas (sp) Something and ALEX Somethingelse. My wife and I both wondered how we had missed BASE jumps in the movie. Glad to know I am not losing my mind.
