Base jumping, epic fail and the guy lives.....
Doesn't need any words. I've jumped from 26,250 for a purpose, base jumping has no purpose. This moron lived to tell his tale.

weird.
you'd think the guy holding the camera would have a stronger initial response. Guess it took him a bit longer to realize what happened.

It was a long way down - no sense killing himself getting down to see what he surely thought was a body.

The parachute must be annoyed. It is accused of not opening when this fool threw his pilot chute out when he was upside down. He looked very nervous before the jump too.
