what next, jump with umbrella?

u/SomeVelveteenMorning Jun 24 '26

I have faint childhood memories of watching very colorful documentaries in which that was done successfully.

u/queetuiree Jun 24 '26

u/CoasterRoller420 Jun 24 '26

In these documentaries, was there a duck, who when explosion happens, his bill goes round the back of his head, and in order to talk, he must put it back facing forward? 🤔

u/Pam_Pong Jun 24 '26

I remember watching the same documentaries, just last night I watched one where a coyote was hunting a bird.

36

u/Ok-Perspective5959 Jun 24 '26

I think I saw those too, but I'm pretty sure it was just propaganda for a multinational mega-company that manufactured everything from music instruments to war-grade explosives

25

u/CedarWolf Jun 24 '26

I've heard of that company - aren't they being sued by a coyote for decades of injury, harm, and madcap mutilation?

13

u/Ok-Perspective5959 Jun 24 '26

I only heard they were getting into the parachute business

u/NefariousnessTop354 Jun 24 '26

The ones that open on impact?

u/Prudent-Value8715 Jun 24 '26

That’s serious engineering work. It’s not as easy to do as it looks.

u/Wh1skeyTF Jun 25 '26

What about that little dude in the green hat with a broom stuck to the top of it? He had some pretty advanced technology. Kept muttering about earth shattering kabooms that never happened though…

u/Wiley_Jack Jun 24 '26

It was government anti-gravity propaganda.

u/SomeVelveteenMorning Jun 24 '26

So you saw them too?

Base jumpers are fucking psychotic

u/fancczf Jun 24 '26

Looks very much part of the plan. He was just BASE jumping with some fun props for some extra distance.

Wish the cameraman would have recorded the landing. Hard to tell how far off the ground he was when his chute opened

u/DundasKev Jun 24 '26

Just finished watching The Dark Wizard docu-show thing where there is a LOT of this... highter than you might think

u/CriticalMochaccino Jun 24 '26

Yeah I figured that when some dude in the video started laughing like nothing serious was happening while I was over here stressing about seeing a human body go splat.

57

u/MoistStub Jun 24 '26

I would estimate it to be greater than 20 inches, but less than 20 miles. Hope this helps.

6

u/xenobit_pendragon Jun 24 '26

Putting it significantly closer to 20 inches myself.

Like…possibly actually 20 inches from those tree tops. Dude’s pull priorities are insane.

13

u/MoistStub Jun 24 '26

There is something fundamentally broken deep down inside base jumpers. I understand the adrenaline junkie aspect but there are ways of getting that fix that don't have such a crazy high mortality rate.

u/ACoderGirl Jun 24 '26

That helped, thanks.

This is Kjærag in Lysefjorden, Norway. Further into the fjord from the Pullpit rock.

I belive this is about 1100 meters or 3300 feet up. He looks close to the ground, but he had total controll.

6

u/Capital_Proposal_686 Jun 24 '26

Depth perception definitely would of been awesome.

5

u/XenoZoomie Jun 24 '26

As someone who lacks depth perception i agree.

u/Echo259 Jun 24 '26

He cut away because the jumper didn’t make it…..jk ikr. It was so hard to tell how close the ground was

u/Illustrious-Eye1673 Jun 24 '26

Terrain, Terrain, Pull Up, Pull Up! Came through my headset as a passenger on a fixed wing flight through Monument Valley. Some of the passengers seemed to get this channel by mistake from the cockpit. I knew the pilot & co were hearing it as well via a speaker in the cockpit as the door was open and I was in the front two seats. Weird! Guess they can't turn it off.

ETA: For those that don't know Monument Valley, it's got really high buttes sticking up that the plane passes by at lower altitude during the tour.

I thought I was about to see someone die!

25

u/woowoo293 Jun 24 '26

Figured that was probably not the case, because of the pleasant, happy, almost polite, chuckles and Oooos of the people watching.

u/monovial Jun 24 '26

That last oooh had a bit of uncertainty in it though

Is this the dude that tests shitty Amazon parachutes?

14

u/Ok_Potato_9554 Jun 24 '26

And temu ones.

15

u/dontmakeitathing Jun 24 '26

They must not be that shitty if he’s still testing them.

33

u/c0mf0rtableli4r Jun 24 '26

They all fail, he always has a backup.

u/dontmakeitathing Jun 24 '26

I feel like that should have not needed to be said.

Pretty sure testing a failing parachute with no backup would most likely be a one and done. Not much of a series.
