    Tomorrow morning at 4 am a base jumper is gonna try to jump from England to France from a plane at 30,000ft. He has a 6 foot wing on his back and expected to take just 6 minutes to cross the channel. Looks cool!!! and good luck to him.

    It's not a base jump if he jumps from a plane.

    He made it in under 10 minutes. The amount of RED-BULL stickers on him was a laugh, tho.

    Base means

    Buildings antennas Structures and Earth

    this guy jumped from a Plane technically he was skydiving / Flying

    And I sent the Sky thing and he Flew

    And its not Much Different from the SAS HALO jumps.

    Except he wasnt map reading with loads of ammo and a aim to kill Iraqis
