    when I froze the video right when he contacts the net/mesh, looks like he was 35-50 feet from nets edge, at his speed, that's a flash of a second movement, and it's all over, splat, no 2nd chances...

    I'll be seeing this in my sleep..

    ^^^ here's the story on this great jump. Done out here in the hills (close by the Pacific) of Simi Valley.

    (**)^^^ yeah, that's it. Dozens of constantly changing variables to consider for a jump of this caliber/type. NTM- the jump was outside Simi Valley, Ca. too close by and near; within miles of the Pacific. Onshore air flow, with constantly changing shifting winds, moisture being inconsistent allows for unexpected downdrafts, updrafts, cross winds, constant shifting barometric pressures, all then dozens of other variables

    Here's a different, non-legit spoof pos video, that pisses me off, as it's this type of bs unchecked info, that leads to problems with legit news. This went utterly viral with millions of views within 2/3 days. The video is unavailable for comments, due to being a bullshit fraud, guess they don't want their system to be blitzed by angry folks. The deserve worse- (Luckily this video was exposed 3 months after its inception).
