Just happened to see a documentary on base jumping called Twenty Seconds of Joy. If you get a chance to see it, it's very interesting. In looking up someone listed at the end of the film, I ran into the Base Fatality List ... no idea so many have died doing this. The list has the reason(s) why the jump(s) failed (if known) which gives a real insight into base jumping.

Thanks. Very informative and a very nice write up by his fellow jumper. Sounds as though he died doing what he loved with good friends.
