I thought he jumped out from a Helicopter just above the cave. So is that actually BASE, or a REALLY low pull?

Patrick and his cameraman did several basejumps in the Mexico cave.
Looks like Both used skydiving rigs and occasionally a base velcro rig.

If you see the movie again on 24min and 53 sec he basejump the cave using his ATOM skydiving rig with the pull out system.
And I found something new today when I watched carefully the footage.
His pilotchute was colapsible...

Yes he jump also from hellicopter to the cave.
I never found if it was on terminal velocity.
My french are horrible, but Patrick says that the hellicopter pilot was very nervus and he tried to calm him before the exit.
there is a movie in youtube:

YouTube- Patrick de Gayardon - SÃ²tano de Las Golondrinas

In this jump looks like he use the same rig but with normal pilotchute.
