Boba Rhett Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 Not wtf of the week material but definitely worth a gander. He's totally off the ground. It actualy looks kinda fun. Who wants to be the test dummy brave soul who tries this and takes pictures? Also, here's a photoshopped pic of it that I found particularly amusing. Link ... This One is good too.

Darth Homer Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 I've done something very similar to that, actually...I was hiking w/ friends & came upon a bald mountain top that the wind was just whipping across...put on my poncho, spread eagle & just leaned into the wind...I got to about a 45 degree angle without falling over, it was awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JediMasterEd Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 That looks fun! I'd figure you would just go outside during a sandstorm and do it...but you'd probably be never found again...but still, looks like a blast to actually do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boba Rhett Posted April 10, 2003 Author Share Posted April 10, 2003 Uhhh..... you're kinda totally missing the point. You're telling me that expert jumpers walk around with these sheets attached to their arms and legs and wait for strong winds so that they may jump up and be cought by them and hover there? I'm sure these people are also in the military forming elite groups of people I shall deem, "hoppers" who apparently run around on the ground catching wind. I bet that they also use it as a defense mechanism when enemies larger than themselves approach. Why they just have to flair up and spook them off with their wind catching sheet. *walks off to get some asprin* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GOD, everytime you walk into a thread it turns into a flame war That was a tip, not a flame because if it was a flame I could do alot worse than that. I don't know what you have got against me but its not the kind of personality I would like to see here. So please stop flaming and stuff, it would help alot. EDIT: Brown noser? What the hell is that? If its racism then I'm reporting you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swphreak Posted April 10, 2003 Share Posted April 10, 2003 Well, telling someone not to be an idiot isn't exactly something nice to say. And I believe a brown noser is someone who gets in other peoples' business or something like that. and I think they're just goofing off or they were really bored Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Praetorian Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 For your info...a brown noser is someone who kisses up to a superior in order to get on the superior's good side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 Oh well I wouldn't know. besides... everyone kisses up to their superior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
