Bridge Day!

Have you ever been walking along a perfectly good bridge and had the urge to...

JUMP OFF!!!

Well, bridge day is an annual event in West Virginia where the some of the biggest adrenaline junkies in the world come to get their high. All the guys in Rachael's family and I went down to check it out and have a good time. Have a look. I'm the 3rd guy to jump. (I don't really support the audio, just turn down the volume, there is nothing you really need to hear)



You're right, I'm lying. I didn't jump but I would love to do it, though I'll be honest, I would be scared as anything. Talking with some of the jumpers I learned that to base jump you usually do around 250 sky dives first. I would feel much more comfortable with over a minute to fall before death. Off this bridge, it was like 10 seconds until death, AND SOME GUYS DIDN'T PULL THEIR SHOOTS UNTIL 6 SECONDS!!! CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!

So the take home message from this, I definitely think this is something everyone should go see live at least once in their life, just to... well, I guess get an adrenaline buzz for them?.?. (can you do that? it seemed like it to me)

Here's some more crazy jumps, not actually from the bridge day but still incredible:
