Re: The Death Of Franz Reichelt From Jumping Off The Eiffel Tower
I love how he hesitates a million times before he finally jumps. He didn't seem too convinced that he would make it. But with all the press there he probably felt obligated to give it a try :D

Re: The Death Of Franz Reichelt From Jumping Off The Eiffel Tower
In 1911, French tailor Franz Reichelt decided to test his invention, a combination overcoat and parachute, by jumping off the Eiffel Tower. Actually, he told the authorities that he would use a dummy, but at the last minute decided to test it himself. It was no surprise that he fell to his death. i wasn't able to upload the file, but heres a youtube link: <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BepyTSzueno" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
