Had me spell bound from start to finish

The new Batman trailer does look good, I admit.

Like that, it is amazing!

Based on my record at riding a bike I wouldn’t want to take up a sport where you only get one chance to make a mistake

thepurist – if at first you don’t succeed base jumping’s probably not your sort of thing.

Wow that is amazing. Imagine the rush they must feel.

Right it will be a couple of weeks till my fingernails grow back .
Chuffing awesome through those canyons wow.

landing could be tricky

At work at the mo but, if it’s the one I think it is then definitely an awesome bit of footage. Great backing track too 🙂

Your right though – at least the crash I had at the weekend (poor tyre choice) left me with a grazed knee, not mushed on the side of a rock face!

I’ve tandem-jumped from 15k feet, but this makes me want to brown-trouser myself just looking at it. Phenomenal indeed.

Extraordinary.

The bit where they go through the canyon, with no possibility of slowing or pulling up …… I honestly felt a little sick. There’s no way on this earth I’d do it. I’m just not that brave.

Why do they bother wearing a helmet? Must be just for the camera.

Reminds me of the channel 4 doc where the guy never quite missed the bridge – not pretty.

I wonder if I could make one of those suits?

Make? Yes.
Use? No.

Make? Yes.
Use? Yes*.

*Once

It would be loads more impressive if they had ironing boards strapped to their backs. Or perhaps a life size replica of Gandhi strapped to their knees.

Truly awe inspiring stuff.

It would be loads more impressive if they had icebergs strapped to their backs. Or perhaps a life size replica of an ironing board strapped to Gandhi’s knees.

Now you’re just being silly.

Jebus!, that was incredible, I’ve seem some of the flying before but there are picking lines though valleys and trees, I can’t do that on Memory map never mind travelling at that speed

Make? Yes.
Use? Yes*.

*Once

..and the result would indeed be WorldClass

Wish I had the bottle for that

Phenomenal.

Wow.

Cor. That looks like a lot of fun.

😯

stunning.

I bet when things go wrong, they go very wrong very fast…

Tabernac! Wow, that was jaw dropping, utterly amazing. What a total rush that must be, and can you just imagine the reaction of the people standing at that viewpoint on the switchback when those guys shot past? One massed chorus of “what the Fu..? Thank you for posting that, I’ve bookmarked it, and I’ll be watching it lots.

Unfortunately at least one of them has got it wrong since I believe. Bet no-one tells them to MTFU.
I’m going to show this to my sixth form assembly tomorrow – beats a ‘revise or die’ rant….

Brilliant and nicely filmed. It looks like they are so close to crashing on ridges etc. Of course though, if they came down on bikes the fun would last longer.
