    Until I stop seeing waste like this on a daily basis I will know there is still too much money in the economy.

    I wanted the guy to splat so bad.

    Now this was just silly. Doing this just tempts the fates to play their cards. Oh well.

    Travis is no joke. First to do a back flip in the Xgames and first in the double back. He’s been extreme all his life and What he does with his money is his choosing.

    Besides, been done by others many times. Anything for the free adrenal buzz i guess.

    Paul22 needs a lesson in economics.

    Rich people will always have money.

    Mobutu had billions to do things like this while his people starved.

    The measure of an economy is just like the measure of a Christian, how do they treat those on the bottom of the economic scale.

    As for the skydiver, he doesn’t look very manly with that butt boy strapped to his ass.

    Ambiguously Gay Duo anyone?

    I didn’t think that was possible. I’d heard that you couldn’t just hold onto someone and then open your chute because the forces would rip the falling person out of your arms (or break your arms).

    Oh, well.

    When the other person grabs him from behind they’re attaching themselves to him.

    @ the lord

    Please, for the love of god, learn how to spell, punctuate and never, ever write in all caps.

    But if you wanted to look like a complete jackass and/or moron, you succeeded beyond your wildest dreams

    Sheesh, what a buncha killjoys.

    Guy risks his life and learns who his friends are by doing so, and all he gets is flack.
