Re: when BASE jumping becomes boring

Well, I'd like a 1up if I'm gonna try that, because I'm pretty sure I'd smash my face into that mountain.

Re: when BASE jumping becomes boring

Jeez... off-topic, but check out this base jumping (well... bungee jumping in this particular video, which is actually a bit cooler) video. It's from the Royal Gorge suspension bridge here in Colorado. I've been there, so it provides a bit of "I've-seen-how-high-it-is" pucker factor-ness to seeing these guys dive off the bridge:

Re: when BASE jumping becomes boring

All I can say about those 'extreem base jumpers' (since it now seems regular base jumping is too pansy for them) is OMFG. The guy was just a few feet off the ground, falling at 100 miles an hour. If he farted he could have smashed into the earth.

Re: when BASE jumping becomes boring

Adrenalin Junkies, the good thing with that drug is you can do it legally. And for most people easier than extreme base jumping.
