This post is about me.

I wish the guy posted his source so I could read if that person lived or if it was recovered footage after he gets caught up in his own torn parachute and run over on that road down there!

This is the source video, he did live but was pretty injured.

You can see at the beginning, though, he pulled the handle in his right hand way down, that's why he turned into the wall.

Actually it was due to a lovely opening that turned him around, he didn't even seem to have authority with his chute yet. Started holding left, and when that didn't do poo poo he then pulled right

Edit: Derp, or he pulled both toggles.

Holy poo poo that real time at the end. Reasons I don't base jump #652, noted.

The most hosed up part about the entire thing is all the comments from other base jumpers who are all "oh, rotten luck; try again"

The Raptors mascot has balance issues.



Even in non-inflated mode:



Of course, he's not the only one. Baseball mascots have problems too.





God help me, but the Red Thing's sudden realization that his friend is about to fall makes me giggle every time.

This is my fear every morning. Not being a drunk jackass on an escalator (mostly), but having said jackass barreling down on my back and knocking me over unto the sharp metal steps of slicing.

I used to commute using a similar long, steep escalator and saw people sliding down it all the time despite the little knobs that are supposed to stop that. It was insane and I always thought they'd end up like that guy.
