I've been there..it's a pretty wild setting.
If he was supposed to come screaming past the bridge and then pull his cord afterward, that would have been quite a show. Let me tell you there is very little room down there between those cliffs.

The only time I've been to the bridge was when I was about 10 years old. I had an inner ear infection and when dad drove across that bridge...well, I can't describe the intense vertigo I experienced.
Plus, my screaming from the backseat of the family truckster made the trip across the bridge much faster than my dad wanted...LOL!
I have to go back someday.

Awesome rafting in that area though.

I've been there..it's a pretty wild setting. Me too. Beautiful spot. One of my favorites.
Supposedly, it's hard to judge distances when you're parachuting, because there are no intervening objects to help you . . . and with more than a 1,000 feet yet to go, it's conceivable to me that it would be even harder . . . Sad.
