Skydiving without a parachute...

I know a lot of people on here skydive and could probably calculate the risk of this. Travis Pastrana skydives without a chute...

 
Having met Mr. Pastrana back in 97 or 98, at a practice track prior to the Southwick National, I can say he is farking nuts.
 
Not something I recommend you participate in while in flight school.

The ORM matrix for it would be quite short.
 
Nothing compares to a great rush of adrenaline.








Edit: Not saying I'm going to turn in my chute any time soon.
 
Sorry, not worth doing if no other reason then he was filmed in a position no straight guy would tolerate, even to get a parachute!!!
 
What about the poor schmuck that gets a half full can of Red Bull on his noggin??? :icon_rage
 
This isn't the first time something like that has been done. He was wearing a harness under his shorts, and the other guy goes in and clips in. not something I'd personally do... but hey... someone should push the limits.
 
If you really want to see some of the stupid stuff he does check out TP's Nitro Circus DVD's, some really retarded stuff but its pretty damn funny too.
