Smile, It's Your Birthday!
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve surely heard of the Soul Flyers; you know, the guys behind the badass Freefly-BASE. Well today is Fred Fugen‘s birthday, so why wouldn’t he be smiling?

In Memory of Arne Aarset. Fly Free.
Midgetbase recently lost one of their brothers: Arne Aarset. He died doing what he loved most — wingsuit proximity flying — not to defy death, but to celebrate life on the edge (and what a view he had). R.I.P. Arne. You now have the best wings any soul can have. Fly free brother. Watch Video »

If you’re going to have a malfunction and cutaway, the least you could ask for is a perfectly shaped bow-tie line over. But forget about this handsome looking mal; there were some pretty interesting emergency procedures going on here — watch his hands closely (WTF??). But at the end of the day he landed safely...

Human Slingshot On First Mr. Bill Attempt
Andrew Revesz pulled off his first Mr. Bill exit to celebrate his 100th jump at Skydive Burnaby, which made for an awesome human slingshot once he “ejected” at 8,000 feet. According to my calculations, a “first” Mr. Bill + 100th jump = 2 cases of beer… and a dirty pie to the face! Fortunately this... Watch Video »

Friday Freakout: Nasty Horseshoe Malfunction Aroun...
Nothing like a nasty horseshoe malfunction wrapping around your foot and ruining your clean pair of underwear at the same time, then cutting away while upside down and landing with the main still in the bag and wrapped around your foot. Now he’ll need a reserve re-pack and a new pair of underwear. Shitty deal... Watch Video »

Paraglider Rollover at Perrine Bridge
Earlier this week I posted a video of a BASE jump off the Perrine Bridge, as well as a BASE jumping photo of Marshall Miller’s “scared face.” So it only seemed natural to combine the two: Marshall Miller + Perrine Bridge.
