ParaBear, The BASE Jumping Teddy Bear
“ParaBear” is one badass teddy bear! He jumps both a 5-cell ram-air and round canopy. He can do PCA (pilot chute assist) jumps from 30 feet and freefall from 50 feet – with a 6 second delay, depending on how his pilot chute is folded/rolled. Thanks to Nick Burden for sharing this great pic. View Photo »

Pre-Super Bowl BASE Jump
Nothing like a quick BASE jump before Super Bowl XLV. I love how he brings his dog up for the hike, then tells her to head back down to the truck before he jumps. Keep your eyes peeled for the deer running away at 1:55 (appears just above his left foot). What were your pre-Super... Watch Video »

Paraglider Cutaway With BASE Rig
This adds new meaning to “ParaBASE.” Instead of jumping from a tandem paraglider, Benjamin Zenhäusern thought he’d have a little fun by cutting away his own paraglider while wearing a BASE rig. As if that weren’t fun enough, Ben adds a long delay too! Watch Video »
BASE Jumper Almost Collides With Building
X Games gold medalist and Red Bull-sponsored Valery Rozov BASE jumps off a 380-foot (116 meters) commercial bank in Karachi, Pakistan. Unfortunately, due to high cross-winds, the jump didn’t quite go according to plan. Luckily Valery avoids a collision with the building; it could’ve been much worse. Watch Video »
BASE Jumping Float at Swiss Parade
This is too funny. Only in Switzerland would you find a BASE jumping float at a parade or carnival. The wingsuit flying ‘track’ at 0:49 is my fave part. I guess this was the next best idea to doing a real wingsuit fly-by over the crowd. Watch Video »

Paraglider + BASE Jumper = ParaBASE
A guy wearing a BASE rig jumps from a tandem paraglider in Banja Luka, Bosnia/Herzegovina. Whatever you want to call this – skydive, BASE jump, para-BASE – it looks like a pile of fun! This jump is ‘slightly’ higher than this skydive off a paraglider from 900 feet! Lol. Watch Video »
