What happened? What did you fall or jump from, and what did you land on?

I fell from heaven and ended up in hell....oh wait a minute wrong page........I once did a free fall..well actually I was getting paid to jump from a 36 floor window, and landed on an air bag that was 3 stories high...So I guess you can say it was a 33 story fall.
I must say thank you to Dar Robinson for showing me a way to make good money.....but it has a high price.
Stunt work is great...the rides are wonderful...the stunts are such a thrill to do.....but when you watch a friend do a stunt that you just did...and miss the bag.....you loose all thrill seeking.
That is why I no longer do stunts.....thanks for the memories....see you in the movies.

Hi. I made 13 jumps with a parachute, but once jumped from a loft in a barn into a pile of sawdust. Maybe 25-30 feet. Knocked the wind out of me and it wasn't until after I landed that I saw the pitchfork. Learned to look first!

About 14 feet when I was a paratrooper. You had to learn how to fall before jumping out an airplane.

I jumped from a roof and tree on a dare. The roof is maybe over 10 ft and the tree is a little higher.

25 feet. Was doing pole climbing at a Boy Scout lumber themed camp. Had two friends on a safety line. They tripped in a hole and dropped the line. They caught it with my butt 2 ft off the ground. My feet swung under me. I stumbled back and landed on by butt, got up caught the two guys, tackled them and rubbed their face in the mud.

Dude its a movie...that scene makes maximum persons of the plot. All equipment is qualified via the UIAA and CE. Even the scores imprinted on the equipment is on the conservative factor. my acquaintances and that i like observing those video clips...Cliff Hanger and Vertical shrink merely so we are in a position to locate each and all of the hiking blunders or impossibilities. Like in Vert shrink whilst he lunges from one mountain to the different and makes use of his ice axes to stick the touchdown....by no potential happen you`ll bounce precise off. How approximately this one- contained in the Matrix (I cant keep in mind which one it substitute into) whilst somebody jumps from a helicopter to capture Neo whilst they are on a roof appropriate..or perhaps it substitute into whilst they have been going to keep that Black dude in that development. Eitherway, whilst they "rappell" out of the helicopter the carabiner anchoring the rope to the interior the Copter is loaded on its gate. Its in an odd place to the bolt and that they bounce out ask your self loading the gate. all of us caught it as we communicate and werent even finding for it. you decide on a real outdoors movie watch "Touching the Void" Its extra rock hiking than hiking and its a real tale. I dont think of two times whilst i pass hiking.

Why do you ask such silly questions? It is better to keep your eye open for more important things, like world politics and religion, both of which has a direct impact on your life. Investigating the aftermath of someone's fall will in most cases turn out no benefit to you at all.
Listen to advice when you hear it, please.
