I think I'll just stick to being a framer, thank you very much!

One of his fellow flying squirrels died when he misjudged a bridge they were trying to fly under.

..........which makes Tudor Rose's comment bang on the money.

I prefer to stick to water borne pursuits

A list at the link below says that 180 people have been killed by base jumping. I'll stick to framing, that's dangerous enough...got a paper cut yesterday.

That is truly amazing and the photography stunning as well but he has had a collision with a mountiain since then, but lives to tell the tale!

I was wondering why they call it BASE jumpers...

The acronym BASE evolved from the object jumped from; "B" for Building, "A" for Antenna, "S" for Span and "E" for Earth.

Still think Flying Squirrels is a better name

But having read that 180 have died already, am inclined to cross BASE jumping off my wish list. It must surely rank as the world's most dangerous sport.

That and cave diving though I think the survival rate is better than it used to be. who in their right mind would go under water in a confined space with a finite supply of air

Eek! It makes me cringe, although there's quite a few climbers who cross over to base jumping. I went and saw a talk with a great climber, Tim Emmett, and he showed us a couple of his base jumping films too.

I don't think I'd ever be inclined to jump off tall buildings, only climb up them!!

Definitely! Looks like there's a couple of routes (probably to various ledges and not the top) that are around my grade.
