Darwin Award.

He shoulda used a hang glider.
The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object.

~ Thomas Jefferson, Inaugural Address, 1801


It is not only vain, but wicked, in a legislator to frame laws in opposition to the laws of nature, and to arm them with the terrors of death. This is truly creating crimes in order to punish them.

Not a lot of details in the story.....low altitude base jumps below 200 ft been done but need special equipment.....the standard chute won't work......they use a pilot chute to drag out the main canopy from the pack tray......low altitude need chute rigged and deployed from static line for fast opening.....

They've updated the story. He was a 31 year old base jumper who jumped from the 23rd floor, not the 14th as originally reported. Not that it makes much of a difference. Just a longer trip down and a bigger splat.

It might have opened if he jumped from the 20th floor.

Now he'll never know.
