Just saw this on the news, these guys can land on a sixpence, still it takes a lot of bottle.

That net must have been reinforced to catch his balls.
What a buzz.
He'll be on smack within a year trying to recapture that.

Easily the best thing I have ever witnessed on Youtube and I have seen a lot of stuff, he looked like he caught the edge of the net too which made it even more death defying.
Thanks for that steve I was going to watch that on the news but forgot.

Some bloke did that from the arse end of a Lancaster during WWII.
What I dont get is - at what point does this seem to be a good idea?

There's something truely uplifting about this. Its definitely do or die but get it right and you're a super hero.
Insanity or pure brilliance. Either way its one of my favourite stories this year.

Fair play though.

I remembered the story from the "Victor" but I knew nothing of his post war 'career'.
I think, if I found out I was working with him, I'd get a job somewhere (anywhere) else.
Was his middle name Job?

There's always a safety wire - they just tell you there isn't one. It's made of really thin strong transparent nylon.

OK OK I shouldnt really be telling you this as I could be in trouble with the ''Inner Circle'' - there's not 25,000 ft of it, as that would be ridiculous. It's only long enough to reach the net
