very cool....
zero margin for error though. Lots of these guys get hurt bad hitting the stuff they jump off of...
Jumping out of an airplane was enough for me...
makes me want to do that again though...

I wonder what the accidental (?) death rate of those guys is? Talk about having a death wish. One wrong move or parachute malfunction and you're toast.
Way back in my skydiving days (mid 70s), at least you had a reserve chute and over 3000' below you with no nearby obsticles in the event that the main chute failed to open correctly and yes, that happens and once happened to me.
Some of those guys look very close to the rocks at times and the last one where the guy's jumping off the building over freeway traffic is disturbing.
