* BASE jumping got us in the news again...*

in #dtube5 years ago (edited)


BASE jumping around the Seven Sisters and Beachy Head after 2 months of UK wind and rain!

VIDEO ABOVE!

Here is an article by the Telegraph Newspaper (UK Newspaper). Apparently we were 'distressing walkers'. I guess a bunch of guys wearing parachutes, helmets and cameras must have looked like a mass suicide event...

We DID call the Coast Guard before our jumps, and they were thankful for our call.

I highly doubt it was the walkers that were distressed. I think its locals who live there that have a bee in their bonnet about it.

Most walkers I have spoken with have no problem with it, they tend to stand and watch.

Hope you enjoy the edit, peace!
