• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Birdmen - "60 Minutes" Episode In Case You Missed It This Last Week.

I just happened to be channel flipping the other day and caught this story right as it started.
http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=6816775n&tag=mg;60minutes

When the one jumper at the start of the segment makes the close fly-by and it sounded like a jet fly-by at an airshow I was just in awe.

The fellows themselves seem like some pretty cool dudes.

I heard a news/sports article that someone was trying to designing a landing "slide" for these type of jumpers and hoping to devise a way to safely glide onto it on the ground and land without a parachute.?? Didn't pick up any more detail than that but.
