rediculous.

don't understand how Pierre lived. In the closeups he doesn't have a helmet on either. Wonder if he did for the jump?

I used to work with Jamie. He is a nice guy. The jump that he did is the World record. He had been looking at the cliff for the past 10 years trying to read the landing. He has been doing extreme cliff hucking for years. This world record jump is in the recently released Warren Miller movie "Off the Grid". He never wears a helmet for any jumps. Since he has a wife and a 1 year daughter, he has decided not to do any future drops over 50 ft.

:roflol: A little more practice, and he'll land on his feet, not his head.

Crazy stuff, but what's with the back flop?

that just seems stupid to me.

But I guess if you have the balls to huck a cliff that big it doesn't make much difference.

maybe because he did it for jesus?
