How Much Fun Would This Be?
Oh man! What a way to get a monster ram off of the mountain. Too much fun, and yet another addition to the 'Bucket List'!

On the surface, the two sports have a lot of similarities, but they are also 'very' different in some aspects. As an example, in Sky Diving, you generally don't get quite that close to the wall !!!
Please let us know when you decide to go for a fly in a wing suit.

What a rush that would be..... Not many mountains here big enough to do that... Absolutely would be an amazing rush.

That looks really fun, also a really good way to paint the mountain. I wonder if loading your pants would affect your arrow dynamics?

Awesome, not sure if you will find a suit to fit your monster ram though.

This video is filmed in the flight control tower of a massive Russian cargo aircraft attempting to take off with a one million pound payload. The running commentary by the Aussie's filming this event is hilarious.

Yeah, I've added a few. We are still trying to film more, but the weather isn't cooperating.

Wow baticus.....nice vid.
On a dark side......just heard about a young feller from Hay River that does that kind of stuff on a snowmobile. He was competing down in the States somewhere and came up short doing a backflip ........end result was a broken back. Still too early to tell for sure but paralyzed from the waist down is what the news said

Well bates you should be getting some dry weather this weekend. It is looking like low twentys for temp with not alot of wind. I would come down to the park but I will be out on a lake tommorow and a river on sunday. Hopefully you can get some more filming done and post it on the net.
