ummmm.............not to sure this one is all that it seams....................there are only a hand full of people in the world that could pull that stunt off............and i don,t think travis has been jumping long enough to go down the tube for long enough for two others to get to him and then actully put a rig on and then pull and do all this in fifty seconds,with the wind coming past yea at over 120................plus the big give a way is that he has,nt even got a jump suit on,,,,,,,,so he has no stablity in free fall at all....................... :-/


sorry guys for the spoiler but hay shit happens and this did,nt..............but hay check this guys out a real skydiving spouff ...........called wally gubbins.................

Yup, though as Bob says 'not quite all it seems'....

Reading the article it turns out that he has a climbing harness hidden under his shorts which one of the skydivers (presumably wearing an adapted tandem rig) attaches to, hence no need to get him into a rig harness in mid air.

Must admit though, he's got far more faith in his fellow man than I'd ever have !

Bit puzzled as to why they were trying to find a non third world country to do it in though, I mean it's not as if he was gonna need hospital treatment if it all went wrong now is it !  :dontknow:
