Oh, why did they spoil that shot by focusing on the parachute when I could have gazed at the wonderful shot of someone's FOOT!

Where the heck did he land? If only we had more footage of that shoe...

From the live leak discription: "Ballsy base jumping leap from an extremely high suspended rope swing. ("Hanging Rock" in the Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia)"

IIRC, a suspended rope swing is attached out in the middle of a high tension cable stretched across the valley/gorge/fjord.


(edit) Actually, after viewing again, Ghostly is completely correct.

Contrary to the title, I have seen several things like the "death swing."
examples:
1: Rope swings
2: Base jumps

THUNDER CATS HOOOOOO!!!!
