    I was reading another thread here on Blinc and remembered that it's been a little over 10 years since she went in on the Yosemite protest jump. I can only imagine where BASE jumpers would be today if things had gone better back then. Regardless, Jan stood up for what she believed in (along with four others) and I'll always remember that. I'm confident that in the future, there will be larger, more organized protests that will test the NPS's will to continue the blanket prohibition of BASE jumping.

    Dieing for your beliefs is fucking awesome!

    When switching deployment method is advisable to practice until capable.

    Nice attitude, Nick. Do you make fun of every BASE jumper who died as a result of human error?

    KERNEL Harvey (that's how it's pronounced),

    It must be the Maggot in me or something! My spelling is degenerating by the minute, brain cancer in the spelling region so they call it! Now suck my cock, Emperor Maximus!

    Jason,

    Yeah, jump and DIE for all the wrong reasons and yes, I'll make fun of you until kingdom-come, feel free to do the same when I go in.

    Always touch your PC right before jumping so even if you have the attention span of a goldfish you might remember where it is at pull time.

    BASE jumping is gay by the way.

    Count me in for the big protest jump you are organizing and paying for it off El Cap in 2012 just like those UHUCK guys did, it was an awesome jump, really. Maybe I put together a few jail striped gliesuits for the event, all ROL, Abbie is going to provide the wigs.

    Waking up in the morning with the thought of DYING for your beliefs is really fucking awesome!

    Sorry guys, no protest jump is being organized by me. A few years ago, I joked in my signature line about a mass El Cap jump in a decade or two and that I'd pay fines.

    The older I get, the more times I vomit in my own mouth over some BASE jumpers' lack of respect for others....

    Jason, choking to death in your own vomit is awesome!

    The current global world does not even know how to spell mutual respect with the exemption of Japan and a few other already nationally wise countries. I guess weak nuclear radiations after nuking are correlated with the increase of national wisdom. Hot pussies help too...that woman from Tokyo!

    In a way it's great, respect has to be earned, you can't just demand respect, hear that Jason? And fuck pride too! Pride my ass. The words to remember are self-confidence and taking pride in your work.

    Also, respect should be reserved for the things one does not the words one speaks, hypocritical bitches!

    Respect the cock, assholes! And lick all the pussies, PU S s ie SSSSSSSSSSS!

    I have viewed the video of her fatel BASE jump several times including a study of her shadow on the wall. Conclusion: she never moved her arm. She did not attempt to pull.

    I've seen the video too (from the top zoomed in) and she most definitely tried to pull. Were you drunk when watching it or just trying to slander Jan?

    Disagree - from the video I saw (from the top), she attempted to pull - no question.
