- jp2535, on 11/16/2009, -15/+356They did have parachutes on their backs.
- SanAhn, on 11/17/2009, -0/+184Collegehumor's Assassin's Creed has nothing on our Dragon Age
- aquapete, on 11/17/2009, -1/+176not for nothing, im more impressed with the other pilot whose doing a nose dive for a whole minute. and if thats normal its news to me.
- mikejafo, on 11/17/2009, -1/+121Travis didn't:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDBrdl2sZWs&fea ... - AnalogAssassin, on 11/17/2009, -11/+126It would be misleading if it said "without parachutes"
This said "not using parachutes."
NOT misleading. - sbcea, on 11/16/2009, -3/+116Didn't I see that in a James Bond movie?
- orehitna, on 11/17/2009, -2/+103how would you try that at home?
pretty intense jump - killrrabit, on 11/17/2009, -1/+99Actually, if you can pull this off at your home, feel free to do so.
- ISellSigals, on 11/16/2009, -2/+81Holy *****.
- fingerrockets4, on 11/17/2009, -21/+94but they did not use them.
I agree misleading - firesights, on 11/17/2009, -3/+64I saw this in the "other videos" tab, and thought it was worth a mention.

I mean, wow. - mikejafo, on 11/17/2009, -0/+56Sure, but it takes a monster set to jump out of a plane with no parachute - lots can go wrong.
- fingerrockets4, on 11/17/2009, -0/+50what you never tried jumping out your window and sailing into you neighbors window across the street.
give it a go. - Jakeman21co, on 11/16/2009, -1/+43Goldeneye: opening scene.
- dystra, on 11/17/2009, -0/+33damn you. the last time someone posted this it took me days to get that song out of my head.
- unic0rn, on 11/17/2009, -2/+33I would say the most impressive thing is not getting sliced by the propeller. That's ridiculously scary.
- Vinsher, on 11/17/2009, -0/+28Awesome, but who come's up with these ideas? I mean how crazy do you have to be that jumping out of a plane isn't badass enough that you have to find new ways of almost killing yourself... Crazy or awesome.
- Johnagain, on 11/17/2009, -2/+29Travis got mounted on the way down.
- snowcrazy, on 11/17/2009, -3/+28"don't try this at home".....hhrrrmmmm
- Atario, on 11/17/2009, -0/+22@AnalogAssassin:
You are technically correct. Which is the best kind of correct. - tadsexington69, on 11/17/2009, -2/+23Best skydiving video this week (including prank war)
- xkorbin, on 11/17/2009, -2/+21FAA regulation. Jumping without = violation.
Google a "Mr Bill" for more fun. - Larsonal777, on 11/17/2009, -0/+15maybe you live in a hot air balloon?
- jakeremington, on 11/17/2009, -2/+16New to physics?
- nctarheel7, on 11/17/2009, -0/+14you gotta do the cooking by the book, bitch!
- Rodik, on 11/17/2009, -0/+13*****. Me. Sideways.
The balls on this one... - elk1, on 11/17/2009, -0/+13He littered too. That is like a $1000 fine.
- Fizzbits, on 11/17/2009, -4/+17 No, this may be the closest thing I have seen in a while, this is not epic. But since everything my generation called 'neat', 'nifty' or the over used 'cool' your generation has replaced with the word epic. Nothing you guys call epic is epic. The word epic has been strapped down and repeatedly been pounded in the ass until you have taken away any meaning from the word.
Epic used to be an epic word, but now it's just bloody ass meat. - Stavrosian, on 11/17/2009, -0/+13Racing cars, doing double backflips on a ***** motorbike, jumping out of planes without a parachute...this kid's mother must be a nervous wreck!
- BattleChimp, on 11/17/2009, -10/+23are you somehow suggesting one could USE a parachute while going from one plane to another?
misleading. buried for title. - dvsbastard, on 11/17/2009, -0/+13Looks like the plane has a drogue chute slowing down its dive too...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drogue_parachute
A heap of info about the jump can be found here:
http://www.joejennings.com/planeto.htm - Chalks777, on 11/17/2009, -1/+14huh. I didn't realize gravity worked on planes too. CRAZY.
- jmontes, on 11/17/2009, -0/+13It was better without the explanation.
- kalleanka, on 11/17/2009, -0/+13My home consist of 14000 ft long walls, so I usually do parachute jumps from my top floor down to the bottom floor.
- jordanlgta, on 11/17/2009, -2/+14Why does it look like a gas pump in the picture?
- rblancarte, on 11/17/2009, -1/+12Happily they had parachutes.
- samson7842, on 11/17/2009, -0/+11I had an argument about this stunt when Golden Eye came out. I said this could be done. My friend said this was in no way possible and way over the top. Because of that, he couldn't enjoy the rest of the movie.
I just emailed him this link.
I win. - bfogarty27, on 11/17/2009, -0/+10one of the best vids on CH for sure. always give it a watch when im feelin down
- aquapete, on 11/17/2009, -2/+12title never said they didnt.
- FreckleEars, on 11/17/2009, -0/+9Really? I can't see one.
I would just assume the pilot has the engine running very little and is stabilizing the plane in a free-fall. - 0260, on 11/17/2009, -0/+9lil jon is a genius at what he does
- inactive, on 11/17/2009, -0/+9That looks easy enough
- MAGZine, on 11/17/2009, -0/+9(where did those bricks come from)
- groo68, on 11/17/2009, -1/+9More like bags to hold their balls.
- Igrift, on 11/17/2009, -3/+11And sadly, the plane ran out of gas shortly after.
- Jerryskid02, on 11/17/2009, -0/+8Crawesome
- orangefly, on 11/17/2009, -2/+10with a parachute would have been harder....
- jessemoya, on 11/17/2009, -0/+8Yeah, I agree. Me and my supermodel girlfriend (well, one of them!) were talking about this when we were in our limo to the gym. I was like, "Psh. That's the total pussy way of doing it." Then I benched my personal record, 800 lbs. One handed, of course.
- thechr0nic, on 11/17/2009, -0/+7yes, the other plane has a 'droge' parachute (a small parachute designed to simply 'slow the fall rate')
This is the reason it is able to point straight down, and not rocket all the way to the ground. - ceruleanocte, on 11/17/2009, -0/+7aww skeet skeet
