For the first few minutes of this clip, all I can think of is Kitty Corliss. Seriously. Watch it and you’ll understand. Then I’m distracted by the hectic, crazy, maddog skills of this pilot. Don’t try this at home?! Screw that, if you can pull this off, I’ll buy you TONS of beer! Respect.

The Harlem Shake (Skydive Edition)

The title says it all. Everyone and their mother is making Harlem Shake videos lately, but the Harlem Shake can no longer be topped thanks to this video from Red Bull. The only problem is someone at Red Bull let their mom do the editing just cuz she’s awesome at making home videos of her cats. A little hectic, but that’s the point… right?

Flying Donkey Shocks Beachgoers. WTF?!!

Local entrepreneurs in Russia thought it would be a brilliant idea to send a parachuting donkey into the sky as an advertising stunt to promote their parasailing business. Bad idea. Really, really bad idea. Unfortunately there’s no cure for stupid.

Friday Freakout: High Bar BASE Jump Goes Horribly Wrong

Andrew — Fri, 12 Oct 2012 11:59:13 +0000

Every time I see a BASE jump, I’m always thinking, “You know what this needs… more gymnastics. Particularly, the high bar!” It turns out Norwegian BASE jumper Richard Henriksen had the same thought and did just that. Unfortunately for him, the stunt goes horribly wrong and the high bar structure collapses at the edge of the cliff. Not only does Richard survive, but luckily he avoids being struck by the rod and chains that fall along with him. What do you think: cool concept or bad idea to begin with?

Funny “Planking” Skydive Exit

In an attempt to outdo the flying crane exit, Nasser Al Neyadi pulled off a new “planking” skydive exit over the Palm Islands at Skydive Dubai. I assume he climbed on the roof and slid off — kind of like a slip ‘n slide from 13,000 feet. How fun! You should also check out video of Nasser’s hilarious alternate boat landing to Jonathan Tagle’s badass boat landing near Skydive Dubai.
