Did Freetown send you that 'classified clip'?
He said his feet were getting webbed...but both arms?! I'm truly amazed that with the size of 'certain anatomy' required to take that leap (Voluntarily) that a human body would 'glide' through the air, but what the heck, a C5A defies physics..... :shock: :roll: :lol: :o :idea:

and the C5-A has a T-tail that is 70ft off the ground. I had to climb up there many times during my tour,to change the light bulb at the 'bullet' point of the T-tail. Not fun to hang over the front of the T-tail, and reach down the front, to the bulb. You always carried two spares of everything, cuz you always dropped something.

Just when you think it can't get any scarier it does.

If you're referring to the wingsuit I'm not sure what you possibly do beyond that but I'm sure someone will figure out something. I've seen a lot of crazy ass *censored* but everything else pales in comparison.

As far as fear of heights go, I have none. That's my foot in the lower right corner, the bushes are fairly large trees. Watch that first step!

North rim of the Grand Canyon. Off in the distance is the south rim where most of the tourists end up.

Fred: Politicians are living proof that the white man should never have bred with the Buffalo! Of course I mean that in the kindest way and no disrespect to the Mighty Buffalo! :!:

There is an animal genetically engineered by a power greater than us! HOWEVER Buffalo dung is an excellent fuel source, derived centuries before 'pellets'. :shock: Did you do any analytical tests on BTU output?

......I know, back to the barn.......no more keyboard for me. Did I mention I absolutely HATE political ads....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! Perhaps I WILL take that jump into the canyon.....

Note from the WH.

No guys you didn't change that bulb I did it by signing the budget to build the roads and bridges you drove from home to get there. I, Obummer, deserve all the credit.
