Expedition Information Angel Falls is the tallest waterfall in the world. The 3,212 foot-tall waterfall is located in the remote Venezuelan jungle. This beautiful area is a Venezuelan National Park. This seven-day adventure is organized by Tom Sanders with the assistance of the local Venezuelan BASE jumpers. The trip to and from Angel Falls is an adventure in itself, with jet flights, helicopter flights and a jungle boat trip that will put us at the base of Angel Falls. We will have a helicopter on location to fly us to the top of Angel Falls for legal BASE jumps! Two days are set aside for jumping (weather permitting), and with the helicopter, it only takes about three to four hours for everyone to get their jump. Non-jumpers are welcome. This expedition is the Twelfth for Tom Sanders, who will be documenting the entire journey with stills, video and 16 mm movies. Each participant will be provided stills of their jump and a video of the trip. Everyone is encouraged to bring their own still and video cameras - for non commercial uses - however all commercial rights belong to Aerial Focus. The seven-day trip includes the following: - VIP attention by our Venezuelan hosts from arrival to departure thru Caracas Venezuela. This includes all travel arrangements, luggage transfers, hotel, food, soft drinks, (alcoholic beverages are extra) equipment and supplies, with everything brought to the remote jungle location by our guides.

The first parachute jumps were from hot air balloons in the early 1800s. The very first parachute was linen, but silk was soon adopted because of its strength and light weight. On March 1, 1912, US Army Captain Albert Berry made the first parachute jump from a moving airplane over Missouri. Click the link for more information. to jump from fixed objects.

Wed, 26 May 2004 About South Africa South Africa map SA web directory Site map ... Sport Cape Town Durban Johannesburg Pretoria Quick forecasts SA Weather Service Mapping the best sites in SA cyberspace: goSouthAfrica SouthAfrica.net If you're a skydiver, you'll already know how addictive adrenaline is and just how attractive gravity is, so you won't want to miss the opportunity to have a quick jump while you're here on holiday. We have clubs in the major centres and in even some unexpected little places like Grahamstown and Pietermaritzburg. The biggest club in the country is Pretoria Skydiving Club which is your best bet if you want to get involved in some big RW. They fly two Pilatus Porters, so 20-way formations are a very real possibility. And if you've never skydived, you should seriously consider doing your first jump here. Two reasons. The first is that, with our favourable exchange rate, you'll find it a lot cheaper than at home. You could choose between a standard static line jump or a tandem jump, where you are tied to an instructor who makes all the decisions for you. If you think you might get serious about skydiving you could do an accelerated free-fall course while you're here and save a bit of money, as it is the most expensive part of your skydiving career. The second reason, of course, is the scenery. Even if it's your first jump and you think you'll have your eyes closed the whole time, don't worry, you will see the view. Many drop zones are in very pretty locations and hey, this is a bonus, do a tandem (or single) jump in Cape Town and get a pic of yourself hurtling earthwards in front of Table Mountain. That would look pretty good on your desk (or desktop) when you get back to the office.

Have a platform at the top that you can jump off and computers that can track your movement down the tower. Have vents that can bleed off the air so at the top theres relatively little wind. As you get towards the bottom the updraught will be enough to keep you stable and the computers can simulate cliffs/ space voyages, anything really going past at 200km/h + just meters away. You'd probably have to be strapped into a brace to keep you in the freefall position to make sure that you didn't hit the sides but if it's done right, the acceleration forces would be almost indiscernible to the real thing. The brace could even automatically spin you around as the view on the VR glasses changes. sporn , Nov 16 2003 Freefall Simulator http://www.skydivew...freeflight/sim.html
