British Base Jumper Dies in 29-Storey Fall in Thailand
A British Base jumper has died after his parachute failed to open during a stunt in Thailand. N.O., 33, from Cambridgeshire, who had performed skydives and Base jumps around the world, illegally climbed up a 29-storey building in the coastal resort of Pattaya and jumped off on Saturday night. It appeared his mini pilot chute was caught in his harness, meaning it could not be deployed. |

Re: British Base Jumper Dies in 29-Storey Fall in Thailand
I wonder where the film from his camera ended up? That didn’t look like very much vertical space for a parachute or whatever it is to open either. No room for error.

He had his pull line INSIDE of his rig webbing. Fail.

Let’s make sure the fucking battery on this helmet cam works properly and the light is flashing so it can record my death, well worry about the pull line in the air
