Apparently this guy just tweeted that's he's now 100% recovered from this after a year. :shock:

    Never saw this angle before but this is a protest at Yosemite. If I remember right the woman was using a borrowed chute. Her jump is near the end of the video.

    Nucking futs.

    I'm not quite sure how to feel about these people when they bite it. Of course there is the initial human compassion ... but that is quickly followed by wtf did you expect sooner or later? I guess I put them in the same category of those that lose "the choking game".

    Same here. I've done a lot of stupid shit and taken risks, but I just don't jump off high places.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)
