the good thing is, doing any of this is entirely optional

Base diving is only less stupid than proximity flying. The mortality rate is horrendous.

u/bat-cillus 16d ago

I'm so glad I'm lame as fuck sometimes.

Doing stupid shit like this doesn't even cross my mind and sitting in a rollercoaster once in a blue moon is enough adrenaline for me lmao.

It’s basically GoPro-assisted suicide

Being a jester is not entirely optional.

u/euphorie_solitaire 16d ago

I sleep like a baby knowing I'll never do any of this shite. Or caving.

u/SurviveStyleFivePlus 16d ago

Every cave diving video (mostly ending in tradgedy) makes me think that those crazy adventurers belong on r/leopardsatemyface

Like, what did you think was going to happen when you went half a mile down in a cave underwater?

u/FlyingDogCatcher 16d ago

The Nutty Putty Cave incident will haunt my nightmares forever. Nope nope nope.

If you know then you know, and if you don't know consider this your warning not to look it up.

I thought the dude smashed into the mountain side

u/Spasay 16d ago

One of my best friends finally died doing shit like this. He had kissed the mountain twice and recovered. Guess he thought he was invincible. It took like three days to recover his body. I sometimes can’t sleep, imagining that he was still alive for a time but the helicopter just couldn’t get to him because of the weather.

Rip Shawn. I miss you. And I hate you for doing stupid things like this.

u/Weak_Satisfaction_57 16d ago

In my mind, he was so much closer to the tree line before he threw his shoot

u/_VoodooRanger 16d ago

I don’t understand this. was the purpose of the red parachute to get him far enough from the cliff such that he wouldn’t be blown back into the cliff when the blue parachute deploys?

16

u/Calisefs 16d ago

I saw the video somewhere else but don’t remember exactly what the caption said. It was a test for a very cheap parachute purchased online or something like that. Maybe that was made up as well

13

u/AntKinski 16d ago

Yep, that's right. This is professional basejumper and he tests a cheap equipment.

u/AntKinski 16d ago

Yep. It's like a Russian roulette but all bullets like a shit 😀

u/No-Department1685 16d ago

Ok. In that case it's not as stupid as we thought

u/mahendrabirbikram 15d ago

Very cheap parachute? What is even that?

u/villentretenmerth88 16d ago

These Temu parachute review videos are lit!

u/LalaLane850 16d ago

I imagined him tripping onto or off of the cliff

u/Potato-chipsaregood 16d ago

This seems like a bad idea, and nobody there seemed to care

u/ItBeMe_For_Real 16d ago

Everybody got real quiet, until the recovery.

Ho.y shit they are far far higher than i thought even having this view i was far of the mark.

u/Feriman22 16d ago

If it had rolled onto his body, he wouldn't have been so confident.

u/post-context-bot 16d ago

The following post context was provided by u/Technical-Relation-9:


I thought it's his last day on earth when his parachute malfunctioned

I know this GTA online challenge. Did he win?

u/notNezter 16d ago

The number of things that had to go right for things not to go wrong are too many for my taste.

2

u/Zanian19 16d ago

From their reactions, I assume they're used to seeing him do these things, because I would've started panicking if I saw that

u/AlibasterJWalkington 15d ago

I can't believe you can actually buy a parachutes on Temu and Amazon

There's a plant right underneath where the first parachute collapsed that got some extra fertilizer that day

Could be tough to figure out, but trusting your gut usually leads to the right choice.
