At least there was a rescue team...
Darwin...
I laughed 😳
Sry Gnar dude, hope you're OK.
Seems to have made a bollox of his run in? Lost significant speed when he turns toward the ramp.
Pushing the boundaries of stupidity.
why bother? might have hurt less if he had stayed on the bike
Was that ever enough of a drop for a 'chute to properly inflate? As Garry says above, he needed to be going a heck of a lot faster...
y'can't teach stupid. y'gotta learned it.
Nature's way of culling the stupid; just think of it as Evolution in action.
Doomed to failure, having to cut across onto the ramp shed an awful lot of speed, which should have been patently obvious even to that dimwit. 🙄
Think of the bragging points if he'd succeeded.
That was never going to work..
Not enough of a run up to get speed, looks like the front end of the bike looses traction as he makes the turn for the ramp aswell, I doubt it was high enough for the parachute to work properly anyway, if he had come down a ramp to gain momentum then hit a higher peaked ramp it may have worked.. But he didn't.. So EPIC FAIL!
What tyres for BASE jumping then?
Should he run a double and bash or 1x9.. If 1x9 what does he need to do?
Probably a stupid headset question....
i like how one of the rescue guys had a bike helmet on.
whole thing just looks lame and half-arsed.

agree - they seem to have spent more time getting the camera angles right than considering the actual jump.
