He was fortunate to stay alive at last
I wonder if he undertakes another attempt once he has recovered?

[Shambles]

You take the risk, you suffer the consequence when it goes wrong.

Gotta take the spills with the thrills (I just made that one up).

He'll be back, a broken leg is nothing to these guys....

Without adrenaline junkies, You tube would be pretty boring.... 

As for you Daz, haven't you ever done anything dangerous in your life?

Oh, of course you have, I just remembered, you're on your third marriage.....  

[asathorny]

  But not a lot of Sympathy I'm afraid .. 

Oh no, me neither, I just thought it'd be good fun watching the loone crash into the trees and rocks.....   Oh and his parachute must have opened to a certain extent or he would have just been a pound of strawberry jam on the rocks, yes, no ??????
