Speaker 1: in wrestling and he's like.
Speaker 2: What the fuck is going on?
Speaker 3: I could imagine that because he kept pointing out to me.

Speaker 2: and that's why they get a lot. Oh they want
Speaker 2: kids to like Dan Housen because he gets along with

Speaker 1: his podcast.
Speaker 2: Florida thousand that Dan Houston is now the number one
Speaker 2: merchandise person. W w E. So no, we're tiny. Well,

Speaker 1: in the Macy's Day parade.
Speaker 2: You know, it's all like they were like, all right,

Speaker 4: I just heard the TG and I was like, okay,
Speaker 4: I also parently can't spell.
Speaker 2: But there's a serialized version of that one. Been scrolling
Speaker 2: scrif ale every day. Can't go to scriphle and just
Speaker 2: type dury of the top. Fuck.
Speaker 3: At this point, I was looking to see if there's
Speaker 3: any listings. O.
Speaker 2: There has it been since it fucking came out? TCG
Speaker 2: players never handled one. Really, Yeah, that's what's hard about
Speaker 2: it starts the games is a place to look. I'm
Speaker 2: hoping to not have embraded one, but I will fucking
Speaker 2: buyegraded one and crack it open.
Speaker 1: So what if I can just find what if we
Speaker 1: should just crack open some uh march of the machine.
Speaker 2: If you can give them, I'd only get him from
Speaker 2: distributor and I will. I will buy in hard as fuck.
Speaker 2: You can get it reasonably priced. Just tcg's all over
Speaker 2: the place, buy insect hands. Kind of weird. It's lower
Speaker 2: to buy new specs than it is. Oh, Okay, it's
Speaker 2: kind of a in a weird fucking price range, but.
Speaker 3: That's the closest thing I said, notify me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you got any distributors with extra boxes lainground,
Speaker 2: I mean, now a little fucking works up now, but
Speaker 2: I will chase to find one for Marching Machines. I
Speaker 2: need to make sure it's I don't know if it's
Speaker 2: Aftermath or the or reap with us set. It looked
Speaker 2: like it was.
Speaker 3: It's the specifically on TCG players in the multi verse legends.
Speaker 2: Subjects anyway, they had Multiverse Legends was also in the Aftermath.
Speaker 2: Oh was it?
Speaker 3: I've just had don't have anything.
Speaker 2: On mar maybe not. I might be wrong, but either way,
Speaker 2: I'm looking for specific the three sixteen. If we can
Speaker 2: find it, that would be even better. Yeah, they had
Speaker 2: three sixteen for sure, for sure. And I have a
Speaker 2: limit on advice, but.
Speaker 5: It's pretty uh I'll sell go.
Speaker 2: I don't care what exactly that's it's worth two hundred
Speaker 2: thousand dollars. Like TCGA, this the serialized uh oh.
Speaker 3: Oh bosh is busted out of March of the Machines.
Speaker 2: That's what it's a cerealize it's probably number one. They
Speaker 2: don't even have a picture of that. Normally they post
Speaker 2: a picture with that. That's gonna be the most there.
Speaker 2: There were so many serialized cards in that set that
Speaker 2: people walked into their binders. Ah, so people are sitting
Speaker 2: on these cars with not really want to get rid
Speaker 2: of them because not many people have serialized. They like
Speaker 2: to hold onto them, so it it kind of god. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so it's tough, but yes, I would love to chase
Speaker 2: after that, and then I do. If we can't fucking
Speaker 2: get it, we take any other cereal lies we get
Speaker 2: to trade for adah or something on to fucking we'll
Speaker 2: do a log on tracking down the three sixteen daisousands. Yeah,
Speaker 2: gold Steve, what that is awesome? That's awesome. We'm trying
Speaker 2: to buy all it to the two. You're a lot
Speaker 2: easier to the team. I have two of them. I
Speaker 2: understood little Google searches, but from what it looks like,
Speaker 2: it's just marching the machine. Okay, And there are sixty
Speaker 2: five different ones. You can get sixty five different Cereal
Speaker 2: life so that's a lot. Yeah, that's the fight. That's
Speaker 2: quite a few. Yeah, that seems some of the expensive
Speaker 2: ones are at least on TCG player I guess it's
Speaker 2: not gonna be right, but the tracks, see, and that's
Speaker 2: the ship we ended up pulling, like some super cool
Speaker 2: ones and not the cheap one, not the one we
Speaker 2: cared about. And it's like way too many serialized cards
Speaker 2: in this set, you know.
Speaker 1: But if we did pull a couple of three or
Speaker 1: four dollar dollar ones, we might be able to get.
Speaker 2: Well, I'll be honest, it would depend on which ones,
Speaker 2: because some of those I would keep, uh right, yeah,
Speaker 2: like yeah, I keep sollow.
Speaker 3: There is it bleeds into three pages of I would
Speaker 3: probably keep because.
Speaker 2: I have that one in and the Wolverine as an
Speaker 2: artist proof, so it'd just be nice to have another
Speaker 2: super fucking high end version of it. Finn wouldn't get
Speaker 2: Finn any of the is Lewis serialized, because Lauris would
Speaker 2: be one to keep. I see all the other companions.
Speaker 2: Let's see you page for Nim of course for Agavan.
Speaker 2: You know fucking that right, you just about a bitch
Speaker 2: for life on your showf yes, Oh come on, what
Speaker 2: about sweet Sweet? And you just you fucking throw that
Speaker 2: one in the trash. He's two thousand dollars, everybody, He'll
Speaker 2: come back, because that's what he does. You throw him
Speaker 2: in the trash and he just comes back on his own.
Speaker 3: At least listed I'll be on TCG.
Speaker 2: I'm not seeing earse. Yeah, see, that would be hard.
Speaker 2: There's so many good ones to keep. He'd fuck how far.
Speaker 2: I can't remember how words in that one. There's Lewis
Speaker 2: forty buds first. Oh, that's just a halo foil where
Speaker 2: uh mouse was just over them all the way to
Speaker 2: the right. Oh there he is. Oh I know which
Speaker 2: one this one isle of Lewis.
Speaker 1: There's a new and and I'll take this shortcut before
Speaker 1: we start with our main subject.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, I was just keep on talking
Speaker 2: about yeah this ship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well I saw the cat. I saw the cat.
Speaker 1: You know my name me because my distributor just jumped.
Speaker 1: My distributor just released and announced that they're they've got
Speaker 1: a it's not a TCG. It is legitimately just a
Speaker 1: set up. Er deck made a cat made cat cart.
Speaker 1: Well see here cards with all cats on them. And
Speaker 1: they made them like they made like parallels and special
Speaker 1: borders and like it's like and and I was waiting
Speaker 1: for them to say we even have autographed cat cards,
Speaker 1: Like I was waiting for something ridiculous, but well, it's
Speaker 1: like basically just all cats.
Speaker 2: I'm like, well, okay, I have a weird vibe with cats.
Speaker 2: I generally fucking can't cats. I do, but but you
Speaker 2: don't hear that. Some cats and chills. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: I don't like everybody's cats, but like, I don't know,
Speaker 2: I don't like them as a whole. It's like there's
Speaker 2: some good ones, and there's a lot of fucking bats. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, we got one good one that hangs
Speaker 2: out on a porch and I feed it and make
Speaker 2: sure it don't die. It doesn't lived my motherfucking house,
Speaker 2: And like, nothing against people who like cats, like I
Speaker 2: get it, but I just that's that trust something about them.
Speaker 3: For us. I've always been more of a dog person,
Speaker 3: but having a growing up we had the fucking eleven
Speaker 3: different cats, and then being with Kyla, it's like I
Speaker 3: enjoyed them. I don't mind them. I've told her, if
Speaker 3: I had my way, I just have one dog and
Speaker 3: that's it.
Speaker 2: Well, and you've you've got like chill cats. Yeah, like
Speaker 2: except for one, which is the one that's always around us,
Speaker 2: making her press it. So yeah, and she's chilling the
Speaker 2: same regard. Yeah, the best.
Speaker 1: Part of her is that like she is like you,
Speaker 1: she really doesn't fuck with you. And if you fuck
Speaker 1: with her and then but it's fun to fuck with
Speaker 1: her because she gets so irritating and she's so fat
Speaker 1: that she has trouble getting her around that.
Speaker 3: That one's gonna become fucking fat.
Speaker 2: But yeah, but they they the one we got our reports.
Speaker 2: Rolls in the dirt like a dog and it comes up.
Speaker 2: It doesn't really play. It just allows just next to
Speaker 2: you and I'll let you a pet it. And it's
Speaker 2: not like it doesn't fucking do anything other than just hey,
Speaker 2: I exist outside. I can move and say I didn't
Speaker 2: sit with you, and then you get up and go
Speaker 2: inside and it's just fine and goes off an adventures around.
Speaker 2: I'm all right cool.
Speaker 1: He named it didn't take it with you, so.
Speaker 2: Like I said, it rolls in the dirt. His favorite
Speaker 2: spot is to roll in all the fucking dust underneath
Speaker 2: on the truck, so we named it Dusty Roads. Nice,
Speaker 2: not quite as boisterous, but does talk a lot for
Speaker 2: the cat. As soon as you come out there and
Speaker 2: start petting, and it's fucking lays down and gets its
Speaker 2: belly rooms nice. Yes, it's now dusty Roads and it's
Speaker 2: an all black cat, so there's lots of all black
Speaker 2: cats running around lately.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's got two little white spots on two toes
Speaker 3: and then another that he's like pitch black and that's black.
Speaker 2: That is Boba. Yeah, Boba, I insist it's Boba fett.
Speaker 2: But no, don't let leave by life. He just really
Speaker 2: enjoys ween milk tea from the middle of them all.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kyla loves his Boba tea.
Speaker 2: I enjoy. He can take the balls out and fucking balls,
Speaker 2: but milk and tea is a fantastic guy.
Speaker 3: I deal without the tapioca balls.
Speaker 2: Yeah, balls in my mouth. I'm trying to take a
Speaker 2: dream have Do you even know what Boba is? What?
Speaker 2: I don't even Yeah, he's from Star Wars and he's
Speaker 2: a fucking he's a quarter.
Speaker 3: In the first three movies, his all of his voice
Speaker 3: lines could be added up into the original tweet amount,
Speaker 3: which was only one hundred and forty four characters, So
Speaker 3: three movies of screen time and having voice slides, they
Speaker 3: can probably summed up in one hundred and forty four characters.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I admit some of it's like automotipio sounds he
Speaker 2: made well.
Speaker 3: One of them is say, one of the longest ones
Speaker 3: because people just use it.
Speaker 2: It's his last voice, like ah, and he falls into
Speaker 2: the sarlac. They have good to Me Dead.
Speaker 1: That's the only reason they filled up the last forty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like a couple of stranges.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's no good to me dead. That's the one
Speaker 2: I remember. Does he have any others? I don't know.
Speaker 1: That's I mean, that's the faintest one. He's no good
Speaker 1: with me dead.
Speaker 3: Because he tells four lines of dialogue.
Speaker 1: He tells, as you wish, he's no good to me dead.
Speaker 1: What if he doesn't surride? It's weared a lot to
Speaker 1: me but Captain solo.
Speaker 2: In the cargo hold.
Speaker 1: It's funny that like his first two lines, as you
Speaker 1: wish and he's no good to me Dead sound like
Speaker 1: to line spoken by characters from fritzss Bridem So it does.
Speaker 2: It doesn't pop if you think it was. Why do
Speaker 2: you think both of those movies have so good they
Speaker 2: had Well, I don't think you.
Speaker 3: I don't think I've told Brad I didn't sit down
Speaker 3: and watch here.
Speaker 2: And I finally said don Well. I thoroughly enjoyed that movie. Yeah.
Speaker 2: It's one of those times where you're like, wow, those
Speaker 2: old fucks aren't lying. Yeah, and also you can very
Speaker 2: much tell Andres in a horrible fucking condition. Yeah, I know, yeah,
Speaker 2: from just all the behind the scenes ship but even
Speaker 2: watching it, I was like, oh, you look rough, buddy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the behind the scenes stuff is just funny, you know,
Speaker 1: to watch like Rob Royner telling the story of him. Uh,
Speaker 1: you know, they were they they had to bring Robin
Speaker 1: right down on on streams like and hold her like
Speaker 1: with a hoist because he couldn't actually hold her. He
Speaker 1: wasn't strong, he had lost all this drek, so he
Speaker 1: literally or his back was in such a shake he
Speaker 1: couldn't hold her. So they had to hold her up
Speaker 1: with strings and act like he was holder. And he
Speaker 1: said they were standing there waiting to drop her down,
Speaker 1: and he said, andre out.
Speaker 2: Like like a like.
Speaker 1: Five and a half minute far just stood there and
Speaker 1: just like just like this giant, fucking massive fart that
Speaker 1: just like took forever. And he said, everybody is like
Speaker 1: sitting like just kind of waiting for it to finish.
Speaker 2: And then it ended, and Reiner was like Andre, are
Speaker 2: you okay? And all Andre did was go, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It was like it was like that was.
Speaker 1: But it was like, yeah, I'm mean, that was one
Speaker 1: of those things where it's.
Speaker 2: Just like, Dan, there is somebody that left the fucking
Speaker 2: room to go to the bathroom and came back and
Speaker 2: it was still cooling.
Speaker 1: Dan Zuger and Will Sasso told that story like Dan
Speaker 1: Suger told that story of.
Speaker 2: Hearing Rob Ryder tell it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then it led into them having a conversation
Speaker 1: about the fact that they had just wished that they
Speaker 1: hadn't been Like Will Sasso was like, I would have
Speaker 1: just loved to have met Andre so that I could
Speaker 1: hear one of his parts, like he goes. I know,
Speaker 1: it's the weirdest thing that Like when people talk about Andre,
Speaker 1: they talk about his gas, they talk about him playing cards,
Speaker 1: and they talk about how much he could drink, and
Speaker 1: he is like, I just want like.
Speaker 2: Those are the those would be the three things.
Speaker 1: I would just want to sit with him with a
Speaker 1: bottle of whisky, playing cards, and I just at least
Speaker 1: once I want to hear and smell his fart.
Speaker 2: I don't want to smell it. But yeah, that was
Speaker 2: a little flat. I was like, if I could have
Speaker 2: been in the room for the four or five minutes far,
Speaker 2: you would have probably thought of paramedic because I would
Speaker 2: have like started seizing it a point, like laughing minute
Speaker 2: three and I've lost all function of my on that
Speaker 2: floor and I'm gonna it's gonna be torture at a point, yeah,
Speaker 2: like I'm gonna be. It's one of those ones when
Speaker 2: you get stuck in the you can't stop to laugh. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and now you're crying and the inside is terror.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know why you stop. Oh man.
Speaker 1: So okay, well enough about Dan Housen and Andre giant
Speaker 1: man fart. We'll get into the main attraction.
Speaker 2: Twenty four minutes and we'll get.
Speaker 1: Into the main attraction of what we were gonna discuss today,
Speaker 1: and that was.
Speaker 2: Brad's going to.
Speaker 1: Fill us in on one of his hobbies that we
Speaker 1: don't talk about very often.
Speaker 2: I don't do it anymore, but and that is a
Speaker 2: skyw yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So so I obviously have never been real or fake.
Speaker 2: He hasn't done one of those. Summary's going. He's gonna train,
Speaker 2: He's gonna do that. My the lose wanting too. Yeah.
Speaker 1: When we had talked about bringing this up. It was
Speaker 1: funny because I do you remember when you were eighteen
Speaker 1: and Pat Paul was gonna like get flying lessons.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I wanted to jump out of a plane
Speaker 3: and he took it as I wanted flying lessons.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he offered me the same thing. And Brad
Speaker 1: was like, you mean, in a different universe we were
Speaker 1: all friends because you guys knew how to fly planes
Speaker 1: and I jumped out of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was like, he's like, well, because of the comic
Speaker 1: book store we meet, because you guys have.
Speaker 2: A plane and you fly and I jump out of them.
Speaker 3: And I was like, you're probably an alternate universe that
Speaker 3: that that you are making me realize could have spawned
Speaker 3: is just outrageous.
Speaker 2: Yeah. It's the thing is like I know pretty much
Speaker 2: every islet in town in some aspect, either I know
Speaker 2: who they are or I know the personally, like they're
Speaker 2: ain't a whole fucking lot. But yeah, it's like I
Speaker 2: would have done it in some capacity. We would have
Speaker 2: cross bats at some point, Yeah, I would. You probably
Speaker 2: could have met Morty because he was causing you to
Speaker 2: not be able to take off across Tarment. I did
Speaker 2: that a couple of times. That's awesome, but no it yeah,
Speaker 2: we could have totally fucking met somewhere else. So how
Speaker 2: did you get into Skydemming? Well, it's kind of weird.
Speaker 2: It's a a sad story. My grandpa had passed away
Speaker 2: and like me and him were very, very close, And
Speaker 2: the earliest memory I can recall to in the life
Speaker 2: in general is he took me on a plane ride
Speaker 2: out at the airport. It was like an open one
Speaker 2: of their open houses, but it was like fucking early nineties.
Speaker 2: I was like four or five. My mom's got the
Speaker 2: it written down somewhere on baby book type things at home,
Speaker 2: but no, he took me on this fight and I
Speaker 2: remember being inside the plane and like riding with him,
Speaker 2: and it was like the coolest fucking thing in my life.
Speaker 2: So when he passed away, I was trying to think
Speaker 2: of something to kind of go back to that memory,
Speaker 2: and I had just read in the newspaper the skydivers
Speaker 2: had settled in out at the airport, and so as
Speaker 2: I could call him up, I scheduled they were doing
Speaker 2: classes to where they teach you this sky so you
Speaker 2: can do it on your own as well. Because I
Speaker 2: was like, fucking if I'm gonna do it, let's at
Speaker 2: least try to start so I can do it on
Speaker 2: my own instead of doing it once right. Plus I
Speaker 2: was afraid of like I didn't have a good proclivity
Speaker 2: for heading out a good path and in rough times,
Speaker 2: so I was like I needed something constructive, and I
Speaker 2: was like, we'll try this, and uh no, it was
Speaker 2: a I think it was sometime around uh September. No,
Speaker 2: and sept it was like around real baby, he'll get share. Oh,
Speaker 2: you have your fucking book. That's awesome. So I got
Speaker 2: my long book. First jump was six twenty eight, twenty fifteen,
Speaker 2: so oh this month year, yeah, only one days now
Speaker 2: three weeks.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and uh yeah, yeah Jesus, that's uh but no,
Speaker 6: what what the interesting worry about this was I show
Speaker 6: up and they're one of the few drop zones left
Speaker 6: in the United States that.
Speaker 2: Still did a student progression with what is called ID
Speaker 2: and structor assisted deployment, And basically, you get out of
Speaker 2: the plane, they have your pilot shoot and they stand
Speaker 2: in place of the static on it, which if you've
Speaker 2: ever seen military troopers jump out, they all jump out
Speaker 2: and the lion pulls their parachute and then they just
Speaker 2: all fall to go and that's kind of how they taught,
Speaker 2: except the stand in was the instructor. You just hold
Speaker 2: your pilot shoot and when you fall he keeps up
Speaker 2: ultimate it pulls your shoot, so there's no free fall
Speaker 2: in between, and it's to make sure you can learn
Speaker 2: and you can't be still some land to damn thing.
Speaker 2: And then once you're good to land, they go up
Speaker 2: higher and you start free fall and you get structure
Speaker 2: gets out with you, and it's kind of like it's
Speaker 2: an old school way. A lot of places don't do
Speaker 2: it because insurance is a little weird, and like higher
Speaker 2: populated areas they can't, like it's just not feasible or
Speaker 2: Trup's worthy enough to make sure all the students are
Speaker 2: gonna be able to do it. It's like backwoods Indiana works,
Speaker 2: you know, where fucking crazy dude has done nothing but
Speaker 2: extreme sports his whole wife, Like he's going to be
Speaker 2: fine out here in elite stuff, doing a whole lot
Speaker 2: of damage, but no I show up. We go through
Speaker 2: the class. It's an eight hour class, and the day
Speaker 2: we were supposed to jump got rained out, but we
Speaker 2: still did the class. And then it was show up
Speaker 2: the next day, and that's when they had an open house,
Speaker 2: or maybe maybe it was for like some kind of
Speaker 2: I can't remember exactly what it was, but I think
Speaker 2: it was an open house, and that means there's an
Speaker 2: assulent people there. There was food vendors, like I don't
Speaker 2: know if you've ever been to an open house at
Speaker 2: the airport, but they do, and they have people riding
Speaker 2: airplanes and you can pay to ride, and then like
Speaker 2: they've just got wild families shit out there. Well, my
Speaker 2: family comes out to watch. I get the plane and
Speaker 2: we take off, and the next thing I hear is
Speaker 2: this filass buzzer going off. I've never been in assessin,
Speaker 2: so I'm just like, oh, that's you know, maybe that's
Speaker 2: a buzzer that goes off when it says you're off
Speaker 2: the fucking ground. Because that's when it happened. No, I
Speaker 2: turn around in the entire one shield. It's now covered
Speaker 2: in fucking oil and a pilot can't see out the
Speaker 2: one shield. So I'm looked over at my instructor. I'm like,
Speaker 2: what's going on and he's like, oh, hold on, just
Speaker 2: don't worry about it. And then there is a fun
Speaker 2: jumper who was on there, and she was a nice lady,
Speaker 2: but she's like, just kind of put your put your
Speaker 2: vat down and you know, kind of sit back. And
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, I looked at beause I'm not putting
Speaker 2: my fucking head down. I'm looking out the window, I'm
Speaker 2: looking around. I'll be cool and call don't worry, but
Speaker 2: i am not putting my head in between my fucking knees.
Speaker 2: And sure enough, the oil cap had blown off of
Speaker 2: the engine and when it did, it shot a bunch
Speaker 2: of oil up, so he had to make the impossible
Speaker 2: turn and immediately turn around to try to land back
Speaker 2: on the runway with another like actual pattern, which is
Speaker 2: very difficult to do. Plus he can't see. And when
Speaker 2: managed to land just fine, the plane is fine. Put
Speaker 2: oil and then a clean the windshield off and then
Speaker 2: coming back in at the dog again the same poe
Speaker 2: and yeah, so quick cluestioning why didn't he turn on
Speaker 2: his wainst wipers. I don't feel like we're going. Everybody
Speaker 2: that is usually.
Speaker 1: All fast enough that water just falls off a bunch
Speaker 1: of rain eggs. They bring meler and helps blow it off.
Speaker 2: The oil tastes to stick a little bit in its back,
Speaker 2: but that would give up and I had a successful jump.
Speaker 2: I wind and just fine. But it was so nerve
Speaker 2: wracking because it was in front of a lot of
Speaker 2: fucking people and they had that problem, and everybody's like
Speaker 2: my I told them, mom, like, are gonna get back
Speaker 2: in and go up? And it's like you can instantly
Speaker 2: see on people's faces when they're like, oh, so you're
Speaker 2: gonna go die.
Speaker 1: Like we almost just saw your certain death and you're
Speaker 1: like running to go I want to do that. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I saw the people I was with made it comfortable.
Speaker 2: The pilot, uh would later I would get enough of
Speaker 2: a friendship with it. He became like one of my
Speaker 2: ultime favorite pilots, the most trustworthy guy I'd ever fucking
Speaker 2: been an airplane with. And he was like a few
Speaker 2: years younger. This kid is at eighteen when he did this.
Speaker 2: What he was getting from loading he was from Uh
Speaker 2: he was a student at Purdue and they're licensed to
Speaker 2: fly and all that. It was a way of helping
Speaker 2: him get at certain ratings they could not get from school. Ah.
Speaker 2: So that when you're training to be a pilot, you
Speaker 2: have to go in a private world to get some
Speaker 2: of your training in order to get all the degrees
Speaker 2: and stuff. It's for the commercial side, very fucking confusing,
Speaker 2: and that's why I just decided to jump out instead
Speaker 2: of why you know that's fair, But yeah, I know.
Speaker 2: I took off from there and then I continued doing
Speaker 2: it all the way. Let's see. Last last recorded jump
Speaker 2: was twenty one. That was in Frankfurt. Yeah, I was
Speaker 2: in a while. I'd like to get back to it.
Speaker 2: But I got up to seventy two jumps. But some
Speaker 2: of them will not necessarily counted. No, find some good.
Speaker 2: Some of them won't necessarily some of them aren't all
Speaker 2: up to code. Yeah, here, here we go. This is
Speaker 2: a good one. This was in twenty twenty during COVID
Speaker 2: skyagging over Niaga Falls. Essentially, Oh and there's a drops out.
Speaker 2: When we went camping, we did a whole fucking tour
Speaker 2: of Upstaby or me and Alex and uh yeah, we
Speaker 2: got to walk to Niagara Falls and get a picture
Speaker 2: of the falls in the background with no other fucking people.
Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome, it's coming. Everybody was COVID shy and
Speaker 2: they weren't going to places and it was one of
Speaker 2: those public areas that technically couldn't be shut down, like
Speaker 2: some of the attractions could be or you know, social
Speaker 2: distancing things or implemented, and it was like any other
Speaker 2: fucking like it was. There was nothing fucking wrong. And
Speaker 2: then it was like a few months later on a
Speaker 2: border right where we were staying and got that fucking
Speaker 2: trunk fit was set on fire. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: I think it went long after that, but that was
Speaker 2: a fun one. I don't know if you's got any questions.
Speaker 3: I d We've talked about it a little bit before
Speaker 3: when we went to I think it was Elkhart for
Speaker 3: the one convention we did for you. Would you ever
Speaker 3: think about doing the squirrels?
Speaker 2: I don't know what they actually call them, but yeah,
Speaker 2: do you know what I mean by the squirrel suit's
Speaker 2: dad wing suits? Wing suits? Like the batants? Yeah? Yeah.
Speaker 2: So essentially like with those, is you want to be
Speaker 2: very well experienced jumping. Does it have a does it
Speaker 2: have a parachute? Do you have one? All of this? Okay,
Speaker 2: do you pull it or do you just use your lad?
Speaker 2: It the same way. The only difference is is everything
Speaker 2: that has to be symmetrical, so when you pull parachute,
Speaker 2: you bring a handback. If you do that in a
Speaker 2: wing suit, you're rolling over instantly because you have to
Speaker 2: pull like you're pulling with both hands and throwing out
Speaker 2: like you have to give a flat inclosurely you try
Speaker 2: to slow down, catches a little nut of air, so
Speaker 2: they usually like, do one of those, and you gotta
Speaker 2: do its wild, And there's so many different aspects to
Speaker 2: it that are really fucking This is what I wanted
Speaker 2: to work my way out to. Yeah, this is what
Speaker 2: I saw. The halo jumper.
Speaker 1: Is this like is this a jump that you do
Speaker 1: after you've done X amount of jumps with the okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like this is a progressive if you were the
Speaker 1: most perfect skydiver and naturally talented individual of all time,
Speaker 1: that no one's probably ever done it unless they're like
Speaker 1: they're prest into the fucking meals with some money or something,
Speaker 1: because it's got to be near possible.
Speaker 2: But you could in fact do one hundred and fifty jumps.
Speaker 2: I believe it used to be when I was still active.
Speaker 2: That's been six fucking years or seven thouts, seven years ago,
Speaker 2: like five years ago, so there's a lot of changes
Speaker 2: that could be made to the regulations, but you need it.
Speaker 2: I think it was a C license and you needed
Speaker 2: a recommendation from an instructor to proceed with the course.
Speaker 2: And then you take a course and I don't know
Speaker 2: how long that takes before you're actually able to do
Speaker 2: it or how they go about that, but yeah, there's
Speaker 2: a lot of progression to.
Speaker 3: It because, as you imagine, that's stupid, fucking danger.
Speaker 2: And generally speaking, you'll only get to learn those classes
Speaker 2: by traveling to specific drump zones where they hold like
Speaker 2: a supposium burden bent or something like that, where they're
Speaker 2: doing it as a group for multiple people, like all week,
Speaker 2: and it's like everybody kind of meets up, get their certifications,
Speaker 2: start learning, and then you jump with instructors of water
Speaker 2: levels to hone your skills. Then you're off jumping on
Speaker 2: your own, probably after a certain amount, but I'm not
Speaker 2: too privy on it. Once I got into it, and
Speaker 2: then once I got to skydiving, it was more of
Speaker 2: a I no longer want to work towards this because
Speaker 2: this is enough for me that it was enough that
Speaker 2: I wanted. It was more of a casual environment for me.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to chase too many thrills. I'd just
Speaker 2: like to get the fuck out, get me an air bath,
Speaker 2: shave off all the bad ship from the day, and
Speaker 2: fun to have fun. Like did so you've done Niagara
Speaker 2: Falls most of your jons? Yeah, all of them. That's
Speaker 2: the only time I jumped out of state. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: and it was It was kind of a weird situation.
Speaker 2: I collected hats and there was a big event going
Speaker 2: on in a drop zone, and there was a guy
Speaker 2: there that also collected hats, and their drop zone had
Speaker 2: released an emin edition in this brand with their logo
Speaker 2: and ship on it. And then there were other people
Speaker 2: that lived in the area that also collected so they
Speaker 2: some of them had went there just to buy the
Speaker 2: half but weren't skydivers. And I kind of tried me
Speaker 2: to cry as many people as I could to go,
Speaker 2: and I ended up it was like me and a
Speaker 2: couple other guys made on the ones that show up,
Speaker 2: but I actually sky died with them that you know,
Speaker 2: made a couple of jumps that day. I have videos
Speaker 2: in those jumps as well. Yeah, because I got in
Speaker 2: trouble from when I go for it before I had
Speaker 2: the proper number. Oh well, there was I have to
Speaker 2: get question when I call them out. But when you're
Speaker 2: trying to get someone to read a h the instruction book,
Speaker 2: the Skuy Diving sim you may want to be correct.
Speaker 2: And then when he shows you the page where he
Speaker 2: is in fact correct, you don't double down and half
Speaker 2: like he's wrong, because it was They tried to say
Speaker 2: there were these strict requirements, these strict things, and like
Speaker 2: all this shit, and I had actually operated a camera
Speaker 2: with my previous instructors, and I may have overstepped because
Speaker 2: of the drup sone like I didn't ask nobody, I
Speaker 2: just did it. But he tried to make a big deal.
Speaker 2: They got all huffy. And then I got an old
Speaker 2: guy plus someone else and he's like, no, he's right,
Speaker 2: it's just a recommendation. Did he do anything at all? No,
Speaker 2: he just wore a camera, made him on a fucking jump.
Speaker 2: I'm like, do you get tangled? Do you have any azors?
Speaker 2: Did he worry? But no, none of it? Like I think,
Speaker 2: then he's fine to fucking jump with it. That's like
Speaker 2: what the old guy to tell him? The stuff that
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's like, it's okay, I'll make him more jumps. Dad,
Speaker 2: Me and Alex left and this was the kid that
Speaker 2: SUPs to me up about the hats, and it was
Speaker 2: kind of it was. It left a real shitty fucking
Speaker 2: taste in my mouth. But I had two awesome jumps.
Speaker 2: I got cool ass video. I only did it on
Speaker 2: one of the jumps. Well. Also, my brain goes to
Speaker 2: it's a go pro there.
Speaker 3: I mean, you can literally see it on this fucker's due.
Speaker 2: That can fuck your life all that, right.
Speaker 3: But I mean, like it's not a full camera equipment
Speaker 3: like you saw like you actually, yeah, obviously, I know
Speaker 3: it can still get tagled up. You have the harness
Speaker 3: and everything. You got to be smart about it. But
Speaker 3: of all the cameras that someone could bring to record
Speaker 3: a go bro, I feel like it's probably.
Speaker 2: And I had it on my helmet, which I was
Speaker 2: going to bring my home until I realized it was
Speaker 2: too far fucking dug out. I was at like sixty
Speaker 2: some jumps at this time, and like I said, I
Speaker 2: already jumped with it. Uh, he didn't know that I
Speaker 2: had made flag jumps at approximately four hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: jumps before he ever even thought about stripping a flag
Speaker 2: to his fucking feet, Like It was kind of in
Speaker 2: a position where I couldn't really like, yeah, I have
Speaker 2: experienced doing this, or they're gonna be like, why the
Speaker 2: fuck do you have experience doing this? And it was
Speaker 2: just I had people to trust me and knew I
Speaker 2: was good at what I was doing, and it was
Speaker 2: one of the first things I ever completely excelled at.
Speaker 2: Like third jump, my radio cut out and I landed
Speaker 2: and did everything dead target properly with no communication, and
Speaker 2: that was like, it looks like you're off radio now,
Speaker 2: it's supposed to be on it for like five more
Speaker 2: jumps after that, like the natural progression. So everything came
Speaker 2: up really good for me. It was kind of hard
Speaker 2: to fit in into other places because they looked at
Speaker 2: your law with such little numbers, and then they don't
Speaker 2: trust your tall tales because is anybody killing Yeah, And
Speaker 2: when you're in this sky and knowed, everything sounds extravagant
Speaker 2: and I'm like, you had to have been there, you
Speaker 2: had to see, you know, fa air bosses tell me
Speaker 2: that I can do something waiver that nobody in the
Speaker 2: United States ever got fucked dude, like jumping in front
Speaker 2: of a crowd of like sixty five thousand people and
Speaker 2: during the national anthem, because he had controlled the airspace,
Speaker 2: every name was control and he had the authority to
Speaker 2: ride a waiver on any fucking skid out of restrictions.
Speaker 2: That's awesome. And he had people with collectively twenty thousand
Speaker 2: jumps telling him that I was all right. He had
Speaker 2: an entire squad of five guys been like, no, he's fine.
Speaker 2: He does everything with us, and it's like it'll be fine,
Speaker 2: And it's like, okay, moon dollar fucking aircraft business owners
Speaker 2: are saying, let's let's give him in mind specifically and
Speaker 2: let's take him up. But you go tell that story
Speaker 2: to the same guy. You know, I just cooked on
Speaker 2: fucking camera, dolledge. He's just gonna be like, you've never
Speaker 2: even jumped. You sold this long, but you know you're
Speaker 2: not gonna fucking dig you at all. Yeah, So where
Speaker 2: do you jump? When? For about sixty five thousand people,
Speaker 2: was it at Ghoshen and I was doing ground through
Speaker 2: that day. But yeah, they had they had went to
Speaker 2: the air and Boss and they were getting set up
Speaker 2: to do a helicopter jump, and they had changed the
Speaker 2: point because initially it was supposed to be in our
Speaker 2: assessin we use. So the guy sponsoring the day owns
Speaker 2: a helicopter company. You had a Brandon helicopter. He's like, here,
Speaker 2: I want you guys to jump out on this, and
Speaker 2: I advertise for the business. You guys get to make
Speaker 2: a fun helicopter jump. They're actually hard few and far
Speaker 2: between for stat aversually get the opportunity for a helicopter
Speaker 2: because there's so much more that goes into it. Yes, also,
Speaker 2: you can't really jump off of them, you get Yeah,
Speaker 2: you have to be okay, you can't jump. You don't
Speaker 2: jump out of anything. You fall out of it precisely.
Speaker 2: I just little man.
Speaker 3: I've heard many times people be like our helicopter pilots specifically,
Speaker 3: if you jump, your hat's taken off because that fucking
Speaker 3: it'll ten and the propeller were just doctor to hate.
Speaker 2: Yet. Yeah, So what we did was there were yeah,
Speaker 2: there was I think there was four or five with
Speaker 2: us that ended up. I think one of the guys
Speaker 2: actually I'm trying to remember who all was there. Either way,
Speaker 2: we had to get out on the helicopter when it
Speaker 2: was hovering above of her target. Evenly, one person gets
Speaker 2: out from each side, walks down the the thing and
Speaker 2: the next person out, next person out, and doors stay
Speaker 2: open and they're walked open, so the pilot didn't have
Speaker 2: to worry about Chiley mother fucking ride. By the way,
Speaker 2: I'm in shorts and a T shirt. These guys are
Speaker 2: in their normal gear for jumping, and it was like
Speaker 2: last minute and I was like grab the parachute or
Speaker 2: it on my back, and so I'm like fucking cheer
Speaker 2: run the whole time to finally get out. And it
Speaker 2: was the weirdest feeling because you're touching the helicopter and
Speaker 2: usually when you get out of a plane it's like yeah,
Speaker 2: all he keeps going, but you're like watching the hell
Speaker 2: like it was just you're watching it. It was so
Speaker 2: slow starting off your fall, and the guys in front
Speaker 2: of you and we're all just like it was like
Speaker 2: a weightless kind of feeling at first, and we kind
Speaker 2: of just you're upright until you get enough speed that
Speaker 2: you can control your body, but for a moment you
Speaker 2: can't really do anything, and it was like the spookiest feeling.
Speaker 2: And then uh yeah, I ended up being the only
Speaker 2: one that landed on target out of that junk too
Speaker 2: right good center with Alex fucking big guy, not knowing
Speaker 2: what the hell she's doing with the radio and ALLOONI
Speaker 2: age in your hand. I'm just like, go out, stand
Speaker 2: by the target and tell us if anything's in it.
Speaker 2: Fucking get our, you know, And it is fine I
Speaker 2: about that, but yeah, I got a land. And there
Speaker 2: was two two Uye helicopters at hover and then a
Speaker 2: Cobra in the metal and they were just hovered during
Speaker 2: the national anthem bit. It was so nitty motherfucking people
Speaker 2: at the Gasher Airport, Like the whole area where usually
Speaker 2: the aircraft's driving in between the hangars is nuts. The
Speaker 2: us fucking people, and then the entire fence around the
Speaker 2: outside that's anywhere in your residential area is just completely
Speaker 2: covered with people sitting area launch air washing, freeing out,
Speaker 2: attending like shit, and it was so packed people. Well, yeah,
Speaker 2: got a land out there. It's a really good day.
Speaker 2: We did that air show a few times and anytime
Speaker 2: they did demo jumps, I ran along with them. You gause, George,
Speaker 2: throw a few bucks on the books and they made
Speaker 2: the jumps, which we're already cheaping up because of your license.
Speaker 2: You pay like it was like twenty bucks for me
Speaker 2: to make a sky dive every time. I as just
Speaker 2: like a twenty bucks really yeah, once your license and
Speaker 2: riding ghetto got your own shit? Does like pay for gas?
Speaker 2: Does Logan Sport have like somebody on standby or do
Speaker 2: you have like call make an appointment or no, it's done.
Speaker 2: We shortly after COVID we kind of ended.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, well if you were so so if you
Speaker 1: were to go somewhere close then the skydiving is it
Speaker 1: like do they have specific days where you have to
Speaker 1: go or do you call them make a play that
Speaker 1: call on schedule.
Speaker 2: Frankfurt does a lot of uha. I have been at Frankfort.
Speaker 2: They do a lot of tandems. I've jumped there a
Speaker 2: few times. That's usually where I can even go catch
Speaker 2: my old buddies. In fact, if I wouldn't have done
Speaker 2: the podcast today, I could have went down and met
Speaker 2: up to him because when what they were, well we
Speaker 2: were talking last last Friday. Yeah I had an old
Speaker 2: buddy call me and they were going down this weekend
Speaker 2: and do it. Yeah, you just if you're a normal
Speaker 2: regular fun jumper, you show fuss up and you don't
Speaker 2: know what's But if you're doing a tandem, you would
Speaker 2: probably have to definitely call ahead, and who knows what
Speaker 2: they're scheduling. It's like, I don't know if this is
Speaker 2: like Dobby right now, but it's usually pretty moving. They
Speaker 2: get a lot of people, and uh, it's a fun time,
Speaker 2: I think down there, but it's not. It's too busy
Speaker 2: for me, Like I'm more of a like we got
Speaker 2: a small plane and a handful of guys and we
Speaker 2: sit there and crack jokes to tandem people all day,
Speaker 2: and then we get on funk jumps in between, because
Speaker 2: like you can have two tandems in an airplane and
Speaker 2: one fun jumper. So I'd usually just get in and
Speaker 2: I'd be in the back to the plane. They get
Speaker 2: their tandems out, and then I'm like, I'll wait a
Speaker 2: little bit, let them get flown, and then get out
Speaker 2: after him and go fucking have fun. Zoom down rettle
Speaker 2: fast and then they get to see me over here
Speaker 2: playing around. But I diagon too, and it was always fun, like, Uh,
Speaker 2: there's a video of Alex's tandem that she did, and
Speaker 2: you can hear George go, hey, here's Brad, and then
Speaker 2: he takes the camera and you just see me go
Speaker 2: right around in the background. But I'm like a few
Speaker 2: hundred yards off. You know, it's just pretty nice having.
Speaker 3: The experience with knowing the parachutes and how to jump
Speaker 3: and all of that. Have you ever considered base jumping?
Speaker 3: I would, I wouldn't write circumstances. The saying that's scary
Speaker 3: about base jumping is you've got one shoot and you
Speaker 3: better fuck back that bits right, Yeah, And I hate packing,
Speaker 3: so somebody else better pack up another fucking right, because
Speaker 3: it ain't my fault.
Speaker 2: No more base jumping.
Speaker 3: Base jumping it is you don't go in an airplane,
Speaker 3: go climb up somewhere high and jump, oh okay, And
Speaker 3: most people get arrested for it because they like, do
Speaker 3: you know, climb abandoned skyscrapers or building some construction and jump.
Speaker 2: Off of them where they're trespassing. Yeah. Yeah. I have
Speaker 2: a friend of mine that used to yah a couple
Speaker 2: buddies and they would go fight fire towers, old fire
Speaker 2: tower antennas, and they we'll do this ship at night,
Speaker 2: do a quick jump. Nobody ever see it, as long
Speaker 2: as you remember where the wires were liked shit like that. Yeah,
Speaker 2: they didn't give them a fuck. They'd go jump, get
Speaker 2: it out and then fucking go back and finish at
Speaker 2: their house. Base jumping is the one thing to me
Speaker 2: that like, I love thrill seeking, I've always wanted to skydive,
Speaker 2: like I said I want to do I would love
Speaker 2: to get to the point of being able to do
Speaker 2: that wingsuit. I could never do a base jump just
Speaker 2: the aspect of no reserve and it's all on you,
Speaker 2: and I know I fuck a lot of ship up.
Speaker 2: Basically nothing is very quick thinking. And that's where it's like, uh,
Speaker 2: you feel more inclined to do it after you've put
Speaker 2: down like quite a few skydoes that you're like, Okay,
Speaker 2: I know what to do when a turf shoot opens
Speaker 2: all wonky and like, uh, base jumping pair set's gonna
Speaker 2: open faster or reliably. But you're realn't need to know
Speaker 2: on on heading like openings where you're ones coming from,
Speaker 2: how it's whipping through against the wall, and like what
Speaker 2: it does different, Like there's so much fucking crazy shit
Speaker 2: that goes into it. But yeah, if you've got an
Speaker 2: asslo skypes first, you're gonna be a safer bass jumper.
Speaker 2: But if you just start by base jumping, you're gonna
Speaker 2: have an early crash and you're gonna learn from it,
Speaker 2: but you unfortunately have to learn the fucking hard way
Speaker 2: if you just start. And that's a personal opinion, it's
Speaker 2: not a factual based anything. But anybody I know that
Speaker 2: goes in between them, it's like the base jumpers you
Speaker 2: really got to watch out for because they don't understand
Speaker 2: how important the little details are if they don't have started.
Speaker 3: As I say, a lot of the bass jumpers, from
Speaker 3: my understanding, that delap sky diving experience are just hoodlum
Speaker 3: ree tards that found someone doing it on the internet.
Speaker 2: Way I know, the tower of my town, I can
Speaker 2: clib yeah, and I mean you can learn and you
Speaker 2: can be the greatest bass jumper out there. And there
Speaker 2: are people who are those exact types. It went on
Speaker 2: to revel revolutionized gear in sports, and their stupidity created
Speaker 2: something that's lives and it's under their own findings like
Speaker 2: oh yeah, when I jumped into this, you can't do
Speaker 2: this with this style of equipment, or it's been a
Speaker 2: fucking tangle right or you know, so what do they do?
Speaker 2: They heal me up something that makes it worse, and
Speaker 2: then it becomes a real thing because it's not just
Speaker 2: it doesn't look like a cheap fix anymore. It's like
Speaker 2: we should have been doing this a long time. Yeah,
Speaker 2: right right? But yeah, the is it just I? I
Speaker 2: this is how I picture it. I picture that you
Speaker 2: jump out of it.
Speaker 1: And even though it's probably not as long from playing
Speaker 1: the ground, Like, does it feel like when it turning, Oh,
Speaker 1: you can get a lot of shit have done in
Speaker 1: a minute? It does it feel like a lot longer
Speaker 1: than what?
Speaker 2: So there's I gotta free fall calculation chart here too,
Speaker 2: But on each of these I have calculating and it
Speaker 2: says delay and distance. So this is how long I
Speaker 2: fell before polling ten savent and you know stuff like that.
Speaker 2: You do what's called hoppipop and you get out and
Speaker 2: you get stable. So you want to give yourself like
Speaker 2: ten fifteen, twenty seconds off the step of the plane
Speaker 2: before you pull, and usually the lower seconds on that
Speaker 2: meant I was able to get more stable fast like quicker,
Speaker 2: or I were intentionally weighing. There's any number of reasons,
Speaker 2: are you counting? Yeah, So like here's a joke from
Speaker 2: twelve thousand feet ahead a forty six second delay that
Speaker 2: was me falling approximately like almost nine thousand feet nine
Speaker 2: thousand feet and forty six seconds. I was working on
Speaker 2: one eighty degree turns, so chances are was probably one
Speaker 2: of those down heavy and like just pushing a little faster,
Speaker 2: but you know the same, Like it just depends on
Speaker 2: like what I'm working on, But like, yeah, forty nine
Speaker 2: circuits forty five that's an on average fall about anywhere
Speaker 2: from seventy five hundred feet to nine hundred feet containing
Speaker 2: the altitude we got. And you always know, if I
Speaker 2: ever got twelve balliden or higher, that's because it was
Speaker 2: just me and Dairy and the plane was there fighting
Speaker 2: can't actually get to thirteen five like the sky I
Speaker 2: mean when we couldn't really get up to thirteen five
Speaker 2: because the plane wasn't it wasn't a turtal prop, just
Speaker 2: an old fucking good plane. But yeah, once I get
Speaker 2: to thirteen five, that I would have had an entire
Speaker 2: bit of a fiball. So do you have any time
Speaker 2: in that where it's just like I I would is
Speaker 2: that at yourself with extra time? Do you just like
Speaker 2: where does that sounds? You find yourself with it?
Speaker 1: And is that like do you you it's it like
Speaker 1: one of those things where it's I don't want to
Speaker 1: say out of body.
Speaker 2: That's not the right words. Is it just like is
Speaker 2: it a is it a surreal like at one at
Speaker 2: at one with oneself moment? Yeah, well everything leads your mind, right,
Speaker 2: Like little fucking thing in the world leads your mind.
Speaker 2: And like all you're focusing on it is what you're doing.
Speaker 2: And I'm not saying like you're like, oh shit, I
Speaker 2: got to do this, this this that. You know, sometimes
Speaker 2: you're like you're falling, You're like, all right, have stable.
Speaker 2: You look at your altimeter and then you're like, I
Speaker 2: look touch the house, you know. You look around and
Speaker 2: you're like trying to spot out of the skyguidevers. But
Speaker 2: it's calm. But it don't take you very long to
Speaker 2: fucking do it, like and then you will. You just
Speaker 2: notice you start to have more time than what you
Speaker 2: got that you can relax and I don't know, you
Speaker 2: just focus so fucking art because.
Speaker 1: They're I can thinkure and yeah, I can picture it
Speaker 1: being one of those moments where you could like super
Speaker 1: hyper focus on something. Yeah, yeah, and be one of
Speaker 1: those things. I also in my head liking it too.
Speaker 1: After you do the first one, it's like a it's
Speaker 1: like a child or a dog going down a slide
Speaker 1: and they run as fast as they can to get
Speaker 1: home and go back down, like like I.
Speaker 2: Can picture that being like it's like that that that adrenaline,
Speaker 2: that hot natural high of the fun that you are
Speaker 2: having where you're just your body is just like your
Speaker 2: mind and body are all at one going down that
Speaker 2: you're just like, oh fuck, I have to do this again?
Speaker 2: Like when am I going back up?
Speaker 1: Like so you just like the dog, just I could
Speaker 1: pick tore the video I'm picturing as a dog going
Speaker 1: down the slide into the pool, chomping out, running back up,
Speaker 1: going down the slide, getting the pool.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, there were definitely people that were more
Speaker 2: liketive than I was. It was for me, it was
Speaker 2: more like I get down and I could breathe, and
Speaker 2: I felt good and clear, and I just want to
Speaker 2: relax a minute. And I wasn't always in a big
Speaker 2: hurry to get backed up er hell halftime on this
Speaker 2: loads because I intentionally didn't pack, like I'm just standing
Speaker 2: next to the buildings smoking a cigarette, drinking about shoo
Speaker 2: with my old buddy, yeah, or like hey, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: run to the house real quick.
Speaker 1: And I could also see where just getting going up two, three,
Speaker 1: four would be easier after that first one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and definitely easier. That's a lot of fucking it's
Speaker 2: a good twenty minute flight up in the air if
Speaker 2: you have to get up I have to get up there,
Speaker 2: and it gets pretty exhausting. There's no seats, you're just
Speaker 2: seatbelting in with the sea belt running through your leg
Speaker 2: strap and then strap him it in and then at
Speaker 2: a certain altitude you take it off because if there's
Speaker 2: any fucking problems, sorry, pilot, we'll get the fuck out,
Speaker 2: Like yeah, oh no, the wings on fire, we love
Speaker 2: which but you can get out to but we know
Speaker 2: you're not going to because pilots never fucking get out.
Speaker 2: There was the he's got arrested. Yeah he did that,
Speaker 2: showing he had in the wrong kind of ring to
Speaker 2: be getting out the fucking he didn't have a shitty
Speaker 2: ass thin fucking pilot like, he was not wearing a
Speaker 2: pilot's perish not where a fucking mirage g two to
Speaker 2: sit comfortably in a fucking pilot chair. That guy and
Speaker 2: a high performance can ify on his back when he
Speaker 2: left that airpoint, And that is how you know he
Speaker 2: fucking lied about it, and that's you don't you shouldn't
Speaker 2: be no fucking no option. Find the jokes that no
Speaker 2: skyd I'll just say he got a bunch of legal trumps. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know if you know what we're talking about.
Speaker 2: A video went viral because of a dude claimed that
Speaker 2: his airplane malfunction and he had to jump, and it
Speaker 2: was this big news story because he crashed in the
Speaker 2: middle of the field and blah blah blah. He uploaded
Speaker 2: it to the YouTube and then a bunch of people
Speaker 2: like Brad who have knowledge of it said exactly that
Speaker 2: just based off of his equipment alone, not even anything else. Also,
Speaker 2: he had a GoPro put right on the wing right
Speaker 2: word face where he'd like it'd be you'd see him,
Speaker 2: you look at everything and go oh shit, and then
Speaker 2: jump out like most people in the film them like flying,
Speaker 2: it's from inside the cockpit, not outside, Like everything was
Speaker 2: set up that this guy just won his ditch a
Speaker 2: plane and it was like engine failure or something. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's what it's like. I believe he was in a
Speaker 2: bush plant. Those things can land with no engines, like things,
Speaker 2: you can land easier in those with no engine. And
Speaker 2: some things with the fucking full engine going like like
Speaker 2: the middle of a field. Couldn't taken it down. We
Speaker 2: see the size of the fucking tires on it. It's
Speaker 2: meant for it. You can take a regular Sesson and
Speaker 2: with regular tires down a grass strip, but going into
Speaker 2: soft mud flip.
Speaker 3: If I remember correct that, I think it was like
Speaker 3: rock now, I don't want to say mountainous train, but
Speaker 3: more HELLI or like Rocky. So that was his excuse
Speaker 3: why he couldn't get.
Speaker 2: Hit because he's stupid. Well, yeah, I agree obviously. Plane.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I know this because I've been watching podcasts
Speaker 1: and that's how this kind of came up. You had
Speaker 1: had a buddy called and I had just happened to
Speaker 1: listen to a podcast and I said that we we
Speaker 1: should do this.
Speaker 2: So now you can do you can go places.
Speaker 1: You can go places and do specific Dvan Cooper jobs.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like the famous d Van Cooper.
Speaker 2: You can do like they have.
Speaker 1: I think there's a festival for him somewhere.
Speaker 2: The ocean helicopter the six seven or seven six nineteen
Speaker 2: that was the helicopter area. Yeah, I was trying to
Speaker 2: go two different aircrafts here real quick too, I can't
Speaker 2: remember that the fuck he jumped out of this DC.
Speaker 2: What was it? Well, I of c Yeah, it's the
Speaker 2: old Bird. There's this somewhat fineapple slicers in here somewhere,
Speaker 2: but I don't remember which jumps it was its UNI
Speaker 2: one Night too and MP.
Speaker 1: But you can go somewhere into the demon Cooper job. Yeah,
Speaker 1: do you know what the dB Cooper is?
Speaker 2: You know? Guess I know who fucking dB Cooper is. Listen,
Speaker 2: I didn't. I don't know.
Speaker 3: Conspiracy theories and crew TRN. You can almost guarantee I know,
Speaker 3: So you know the real things that actually happened.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Yeah, here's the This is my favorite jump.
Speaker 2: This is the jump I proposed to Alex after and
Speaker 2: my adversary each our long book for it. It was
Speaker 2: eight seventeen, twenty nineteen. I jumped a twenty four foot
Speaker 2: m K one r C from nineteen seventy four. It
Speaker 2: was a round pair of shoe that my instructor had
Speaker 2: bought brand new, and I managed to stand it up
Speaker 2: what I landed, which is near impossible. You've ever watched
Speaker 2: guy diving videos of soldiers landing and they're just like
Speaker 2: right into the ground. The part I was essentially jumping
Speaker 2: something smaller than they're very shoe and I stood the
Speaker 2: perfect and the joke was was like I didn't even
Speaker 2: see the grass. Well, he's been over when because shortly
Speaker 2: after that, like I had another buddy who weighed quite
Speaker 2: a bit more than me. He jumped the same parachute
Speaker 2: and when he landed, he accidentally straight lane laid it,
Speaker 2: get it shot all the way through his back and dude,
Speaker 2: all you hear, you see him going to land, you
Speaker 2: see him stand straight up, and you hear, and then
Speaker 2: he fell over and it was like pull the fuck
Speaker 2: He fucked his back up so bad that and good
Speaker 2: lady like he was landed nice and close, but fuck
Speaker 2: he was on all fours and the hangar sitting there
Speaker 2: and then it bos tals he's over there and day
Speaker 2: and died. I'm in the room by day. Brian No,
Speaker 2: I love Brian. He was he was such a good friend.
Speaker 2: But like the long door he did that. That's why
Speaker 2: I said. I was like if he was wearing high
Speaker 2: heels when he jumped, he'd still be stuck out.
Speaker 1: Oh shoot, so how fast is the plane going?
Speaker 2: It slows down and it's almost like I would say
Speaker 2: about seventy miles sixty mile an hour. It's like basically,
Speaker 2: when you climb out on the wing of the plane,
Speaker 2: the step is this big, not very big, don't miss
Speaker 2: it on ow it sucks, but you step out there,
Speaker 2: and then depending on how many people are getting out,
Speaker 2: I would walk off like I would all the way
Speaker 2: out on the strut of the lane, and then I
Speaker 2: would dable from it, and then the next guy would
Speaker 2: come out and they would put their feet on a
Speaker 2: step and get on the other side of the strut.
Speaker 2: So imagine this is the strut I'm dangling over here.
Speaker 2: This guy is facing this way with the propeller that way,
Speaker 2: and then another guy would get out on the step
Speaker 2: directly across from him, and then there'd be one guy
Speaker 2: in the door, and then we'd all jump in them
Speaker 2: on the group and it'd be all four of us
Speaker 2: or one at a time, like for demo gymps, and
Speaker 2: then we'd get out and then we'd do it one
Speaker 2: at a time perfectly time. And George was usually this
Speaker 2: guy and he would knock you off one way to
Speaker 2: jump and stuff like that. But yeah, you get out
Speaker 2: there and hang where the fuck was I going with this?
Speaker 2: We ask how fast the playing how fast? So yeah,
Speaker 2: it's about So when you're doing this, it's like standing
Speaker 2: in the bed of a pickup truck on about sixty
Speaker 2: mile an hour down of the hideway, except it's a
Speaker 2: lot less bumpy and there's no four. There's sense. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so you're standing through the cookup truckle with no four
Speaker 2: essentially yeah, but it's not that bad. And then when
Speaker 2: you get to falling under toty mile hour, usually heady
Speaker 2: post to grab her. The bigger you are, the faster
Speaker 2: you fall, and your body pis sul matters a lot.
Speaker 2: So I was a flutter in the sense that I
Speaker 2: was so light and at times would I didn't have
Speaker 2: the experience to get my body position right to regulate
Speaker 2: my fall rate as well as the others, so I
Speaker 2: couldn't fall faster very easily. If I needed to, I
Speaker 2: had to world weight, though a lot of times I'd
Speaker 2: put twenty pounds of my waist just to help, and
Speaker 2: I could get my fall rate as low like as
Speaker 2: some If I got big, I had the bright jumpsuit
Speaker 2: on like I was literally like I got my money's
Speaker 2: worth out of a fucking jump Yeah, and I would
Speaker 2: pull my parachute at twenty five hundred feet and I'd
Speaker 2: still be up there five minutes longer. Everybody else like
Speaker 2: just fucking hick me it out, chilling thermals riting thermals
Speaker 2: up and it's almost paragliding at that fucking point. But yeah,
Speaker 2: i'd say planes only going, you know, pretty slow relatively
Speaker 2: to like when you're getting up to speed, you're going
Speaker 2: a lot faster than that, you know, and they cut
Speaker 2: the engine so you don't have that fucking shipped air
Speaker 2: at you. You're almost in a glide. You are losing
Speaker 2: a little bit of altitude. So the longer it takes
Speaker 2: you to get out of the wing, the more altitude
Speaker 2: you kind of lose.
Speaker 1: Now on the place where you can go for the
Speaker 1: DMan Cooper jumped. They say his jump was at like
Speaker 1: twenty thousand feet and the light was going late.
Speaker 2: It's impossible unless he had suplemental oxygen. If he was
Speaker 2: sitting there the entire time with an oxygen mask down
Speaker 2: and a door deep like the whole thing. They also
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 3: And he jumped, yeah, because he made them leave the
Speaker 3: staircase in the back down the whole time, well not
Speaker 3: the whole time, after they got out.
Speaker 2: You would have to and then the cabin isn't pressurized.
Speaker 1: So oh, it wasn't twenty he wasn't. It wasn't twenty
Speaker 1: thousand feet, was it?
Speaker 2: It was? I think he made him go. I think
Speaker 2: he made them fly low ten thousand feet of thousand feet. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you can get up to fifteen thousand feet. Some people
Speaker 2: would need a little bit of opposition, but I think
Speaker 2: he's going to say, let's say, yeah, roughly around two
Speaker 2: hundred miles an hour shift. Oh got you know what
Speaker 2: you're doing? Any shit? I know from podcasts I've listened to,
Speaker 2: and they've probably mentioned on the ones that you listened to.
Speaker 2: That's why a lot of people think he had some
Speaker 2: kind of military service or previous skydiving experience. Yeah, there
Speaker 2: was a guy that he also.
Speaker 3: Understood how the boeings worked very yeah in detail.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well they've tagged people cling to be him, right,
Speaker 1: Like several people have claimed to be him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, the most freqent, like one of them did,
Speaker 2: and then everybody else started doing it, so they just
Speaker 2: quit believing every one of them. And he's like, I
Speaker 2: told him, and he's like, why there are several that
Speaker 2: have claimed and then they done it. There's one guy
Speaker 2: that that claims that his brother told him on his
Speaker 2: deathbed that he did it. But everybody knows everybody I
Speaker 2: did when I die told him, like everybody is said
Speaker 2: supposedly said that that's not true. I still love the
Speaker 2: dumb fact that he never put like on none of
Speaker 2: his ticket, none of the manifest nothing did it say
Speaker 2: dB Cooper? He signed everything Dan Cooper. Yeah, And some
Speaker 2: dumbass was like, oh it was dB, Yeah it was.
Speaker 2: It was a comic book character. Is that what it
Speaker 2: was after?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm pretty sure Dan Cooper is a uh, it's
Speaker 1: a it's a comic book.
Speaker 2: It's a comic book. Like Jumper, Plane Jumper. He looks
Speaker 2: like a pilot. Yeah, he's a pilot that jumps out
Speaker 2: a plant. So yeah, dam Cooper's a test pilot in
Speaker 2: the Royal Canadian Air Force. Early soilines featured futuristic science
Speaker 2: fiction themes, such as palating a rocket shipped the Martian Route.
Speaker 2: Everybody's so concerned with motherfucking DV Cooper. Nobody ever said
Speaker 2: the cogic book came from Canada. Did anybody fucking investigate
Speaker 2: can Canada? Probably? Probably not probably not. Does it say
Speaker 2: up there why they called him dB?
Speaker 1: Because I see where some of the comics storylines seemingly
Speaker 1: mashed aspects.
Speaker 2: Of the of the dB Cooper Gase. I thought maybe
Speaker 2: it said maybe his.
Speaker 1: The niece of one suspect, Lynn Doyle ld Cooper said
Speaker 1: twenty Elenn that her uncle had been a fan of
Speaker 1: the Dan could work. Yeah, most of the people that
Speaker 1: have come out and said that they haven't. I don't
Speaker 1: know if there's as many people that have come out
Speaker 1: and said they were DV. Cooper, or as many people
Speaker 1: have come out and said, Hey, my uncle was D. B. Cooper,
Speaker 1: Hey my brother was D B. Cooper, Hey my my
Speaker 1: you know my third cousin, removed college roommate was dead.
Speaker 2: Was dB? Giver? Like if I had an amily member
Speaker 2: come up to me and be like, hey, I was Cooper,
Speaker 2: I would proceed to beat the fucking one of They
Speaker 2: were where's the goddamn money? Where's the money? Well they
Speaker 2: lost most of it. They've recovered a lot of destroyed.
Speaker 2: Like I'm saying, they recovered most of the moment that
Speaker 2: they've covered, they didn't recover a lot of them. Just
Speaker 2: like fifty they've recently found more. Oh, have they found more?
Speaker 2: I know that. I'm just allegedly allegedly.
Speaker 3: I'll just saying they found a bunch of destroyed buildings
Speaker 3: in the same area where he.
Speaker 2: Supposedly would have landed. What year was that, seventy two.
Speaker 1: Seventy one, one seventy one in Seattle, Washington.
Speaker 2: I just you know, my no buddy, young guy that
Speaker 2: called me the other day, it's its real nice fucking
Speaker 2: hot rod and he started jumping about the same time.
Speaker 2: I think he moved on to Indiana because he look,
Speaker 2: what's his hype suspected five ten to six foot Okay,
Speaker 2: and let's say miss judge the hype no, because he's
Speaker 2: shorter than me. He's like five five seven, five six
Speaker 2: somewhere in there, maybe born that I don't know, just
Speaker 2: jumped in it.
Speaker 1: I mean, it would make sense not to stay in
Speaker 1: the Loshton area. I just always wonder if I didn't like,
Speaker 1: hang out with this guy at some point. Well not
Speaker 1: because he's like he really did it for.
Speaker 2: The thrill and then like fucking probably didn't lose most
Speaker 2: of the money and they just ain't been found. He's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I fucking watched it all, but they never figured it
Speaker 2: out it was me and like, just keeps it a secret.
Speaker 3: He'd roughly be from based off of the descriptions everyone said.
Speaker 3: He was roughly around twenty eight or twenty nine years old,
Speaker 3: and it was fifty four years ago, so it'd be
Speaker 3: about eighty two. What is the uh the aircraft?
Speaker 2: It was a yeah is it a dash? What down for? Dash?
Speaker 2: Fifty one? Okay? They and the thing that I was
Speaker 2: watching was on a podcast.
Speaker 1: You guys aren't old enough to remember this, but back
Speaker 1: in like twenty twelve, maybe.
Speaker 2: What's his name?
Speaker 1: Brian Meltzer, which is a which is a guy that
Speaker 1: rags comic books and mystery novels had this show on.
Speaker 2: I've had this show on in the History Network called Decoded.
Speaker 3: I have a question, do you not remember my childhood?
Speaker 3: Because first off, you said in twenty twelve, motherfucker, I
Speaker 3: was born in ninety nine, and you guys may not
Speaker 3: be old enough to know this. We also we will
Speaker 3: sit at Mammon and papples and watch him this.
Speaker 2: Yeah all right, I couldn't remember if he did. Yeah,
Speaker 2: so this is what I've been watching.
Speaker 1: I've been rewatching all of this and I love his
Speaker 1: conspiracy theory shit like through the years, through the episodes,
Speaker 1: and honestly, I would love to do, like if I
Speaker 1: could find a way to get paid to go back
Speaker 1: and do all of his conspiracy theories but updated to
Speaker 1: where like did John Wilkes Booth die the night that
Speaker 1: they said he died? Like it was never did John
Speaker 1: Wan's booth really kill Lincoln? It was always did he
Speaker 1: get away?
Speaker 2: And then it was like he did? Like is there
Speaker 2: a really golden Ford Knox?
Speaker 1: And you know the TV Cooper and why the missing
Speaker 1: cornerstone of the White House.
Speaker 2: And and you know things like that check your message
Speaker 2: that was the Niagara false jump. Oh you said it
Speaker 2: on Facebook? Take all that up then, And I would
Speaker 2: love to go back and be like.
Speaker 6: Be like.
Speaker 1: This is this is what we know now, like fifteen
Speaker 1: years later, like because I feel like there's a lot
Speaker 1: more information out there.
Speaker 2: You send it on Facebook and it might take a
Speaker 2: minute both of us, the group just me and your
Speaker 2: dad death might take a minute, yeah, probably because it's
Speaker 2: is it a video I just linked to from my shoe?
Speaker 1: Sorry back to what It just might take a minute
Speaker 1: to uh to uh for him to get it the
Speaker 1: whole thing process.
Speaker 2: God damn it, Zuckerberg. But yeah, I would love to
Speaker 2: go back through and like update that. I just I
Speaker 2: just haven't been able to find a way for somebody
Speaker 2: to pay me to do that.
Speaker 3: It's hard to get paid for a lot of things.
Speaker 3: And then again, yeah, I know, right, it.
Speaker 2: Is, it is. It kind of sucks. Are we gonna
Speaker 2: watch the jump? Which one? Are you? All right? The
Speaker 2: one was a camera on his head? The one we
Speaker 2: don't see, so guess guys were all over over sixty
Speaker 2: in between seventies over all these old buddies making a
Speaker 2: jump to go. I'm sure that. Yeah. So yeah, this
Speaker 2: is me right here him a little bit of time,
Speaker 2: fleeing all the out That is the Lake Ontario. So
Speaker 2: what you're looking at is parts of Canada. I'm a
Speaker 2: but that is all King of right there across where
Speaker 2: it fuddles in and gets smaller, that's Niagara Falls right there.
Speaker 2: That's it. But it's nothing too crazy, just going around
Speaker 2: getting a view. You can see Toronto, I believe, dude.
Speaker 5: That's far too lowso hard. Yeah, that night you didn't
Speaker 5: see the lots, can't. I think Toronto is one across.
Speaker 2: Like yeah, yeah, because like the bills that threatened to
Speaker 2: move to Toronto. Only thing. Yeah, so speaking of teams moving,
Speaker 2: did you see it Indiana officially as two football teams
Speaker 2: Now the Bears are moving to him and but yeah,
Speaker 2: this was like in this area was fucking beautiful, pretty pink,
Speaker 2: purple parash. I love that parachute man all of two.
Speaker 2: It didn't be good. It's it's a saber one and
Speaker 2: most peop people steer away from him because it does
Speaker 2: what they call the saber slam, and it opens so
Speaker 2: abruptly sometimes that it'll fuck you up. It'll fuck you up.
Speaker 2: But I had a weird way of packing yet that
Speaker 2: was a little album of the normal way to pack that.
Speaker 2: You wouldn't pack a normal pair of schute the way
Speaker 2: I packed that, and it helped slow the slide. You
Speaker 2: see how slow the slider came down. That's because of
Speaker 2: the way I had. Otherwise, that ship shoots down in
Speaker 2: and it stops you more son, and I can fuck
Speaker 2: it hurt. But yeah, one of my stuladies to say
Speaker 2: it by and they read off it's it's always that
Speaker 2: the part. So there's a there's another guy coming by,
Speaker 2: that's the light in your end. Blow me. I just
Speaker 2: kind of kept her pushed into the limb. You know
Speaker 2: here and there spiral that. How do you know where
Speaker 2: you're supposed to land on this one? By luck because
Speaker 2: of what wasn't familiar with the area at our airport.
Speaker 2: It was super fucking easy because I know about it,
Speaker 2: So I literally could follow county life. You put me
Speaker 2: out anyone ahead? Wake, How do you know that you're
Speaker 2: gonna land where you need to land? Though? You you
Speaker 2: follow your altimutter pretty close? Oh okay, And there's some
Speaker 2: good guidelines for knowing when and how to approach what altitudes.
Speaker 2: So you start going to a couple of practice passes,
Speaker 2: and you always stay ahead of the target, but you
Speaker 2: go around about a few hundred feet, take a tur
Speaker 2: see how much altitude you lose, and you just kind
Speaker 2: of do a quick loop around and then turn back
Speaker 2: into the land and then see where you're at, and
Speaker 2: then you can kind of get your pattern there if
Speaker 2: you're gonna be able to if you need to go
Speaker 2: farther down to lose altitude? Are you shooting for like
Speaker 2: a field to see that? Barn? Okay, plosive right now?
Speaker 2: All right, I'm just seeing it. I'm shooting for right
Speaker 2: here in this area. This is the grass shirt where
Speaker 2: the plane lands. That's the main name here. Okay, so
Speaker 2: that's what you're figuring for it, yeah, okay for anyone
Speaker 2: looking on the computer out right there with my mouse,
Speaker 2: yeah yeah, and I do it pretty nice. Yeah, but
Speaker 2: it's a busy like it looks like it's calling and collective.
Speaker 2: But there were about twenty fucking jumpers. Oh does ship
Speaker 2: Maybe the sky was scattered. It was a twin odd
Speaker 2: first time I ever got to jump out. It's uh,
Speaker 2: I believe I can't remember if the auto of is
Speaker 2: design for sky Niner or not, but it's one of
Speaker 2: the more predominantly ones used that Like they drop zone
Speaker 2: because it can hold so many people. It has oxygen
Speaker 2: supplement to me to who's some other things? Uh, bring fruit?
Speaker 2: They run a pat which is really fun fast as
Speaker 2: fun are, like you get the altitude, so got get fast,
Speaker 2: like that would be a place to jump, go be
Speaker 2: cider jump. Yeah. Now obviously with the microphone it's horrible.
Speaker 2: How bad is that win with the helmet and everything,
Speaker 2: Like I guess the noise of it like that, it's
Speaker 2: just like standing out in the middle with you in
Speaker 2: the day. Oh see, I got nothing walking land.
Speaker 1: Yeah, imagine that it's worse for the canon because it's
Speaker 1: it's out of the helm.
Speaker 2: You know. It's not that I'll know Tatum's have right away,
Speaker 2: generally speaking, but it's always the lowest riding boy is
Speaker 2: always the person in front of you doing the lowest.
Speaker 2: If you're faster, you need to adjust and kind of
Speaker 2: be prepared. Uh, that big ring is more for us
Speaker 2: to lay by, and I think the Tamas are supposed
Speaker 2: to playing in the front, but thinks aldus like just
Speaker 2: to be safe if you can land me careful kind
Speaker 2: of thing. But I was shooting for a big shirt ball.
Speaker 2: I got pretty close. But yeah, you see this guy
Speaker 2: coming right over my shoulder. Didn't even know it was
Speaker 2: there to do. No, he' justlying up above me the
Speaker 2: whole time, up in this back corner and like as
Speaker 2: soon as I landed, he kind of came down and
Speaker 2: that was a tandem fight. I believe that was a
Speaker 2: friend of mine as well, if you keep was at
Speaker 2: the end of the y Okay, yeah, there's I kind
Speaker 2: of I have another chump somewhere where I wrote up
Speaker 2: to him and I gave him a copy of that video.
Speaker 2: So you guys, something I jumped with a little arch
Speaker 2: for footage at the end. Yeah yeah, coo cool. So
Speaker 2: that was your Niagara Falls shell? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Nice, nice, very cool, very cool. All right, that is
Speaker 1: that anything else?
Speaker 2: You know? I initially want to talk about movies in skydiving,
Speaker 2: but that another longly did fucking conversation. So what time
Speaker 2: we look at? Twenty two? I believe is what it souns. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'd say get time forgot maybe another time power twenty three? Yeah,
Speaker 2: now that the wife wanted to go out and do somethings.
Speaker 2: Otherwise I would continue on that conversation. We have a
Speaker 2: two hour podcast, easily we could. We can pick that
Speaker 2: up on on or something. Your your fucking research, Levie
Speaker 2: is you have to watch Honeymoon in Vegas. Honeymoon in Vegas.
Speaker 2: Gott it got your research freging in Vegas instead of research.
Speaker 2: And there is some very specific reasons why, one of
Speaker 2: them being in a cave yes he love, the other
Speaker 2: one being my favorite team with skydivers of all time.
Speaker 2: And this is probably the subconscious reason I ever wanted
Speaker 2: to suck skydive without knowing it, because I have been
Speaker 2: on a quest to jump with the Flying Elvis's for
Speaker 2: a long time. Is that a real fucking thing? Absolutely
Speaker 2: in this movie. Yeah, it's a really wait do you
Speaker 2: see who little Elvis is? Do you remember the movie
Speaker 2: match a little bit? Yeah?
Speaker 3: So why does it pulled the Patriots logo?
Speaker 2: Uh? They jumped for the Patriots.
Speaker 1: And there's also a wrestling video of the Flying Elvis
Speaker 1: is pro wrestling.
Speaker 2: They're a demo jump team. So basically what they knew
Speaker 2: is what my buddies used to do, except they didn't
Speaker 2: dress as Elvis. They just dressed like Breakisler guys. What
Speaker 2: the fuck? Ship third third, third, round down? Yeah, there's
Speaker 2: but that is that is a movie o guy? All right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'll watch that. They're they're flying legs are not just wigs.
Speaker 2: Those are a fact functional helmets. Really you don't actually
Speaker 2: I can see that heart plastic. You don't need much actually,
Speaker 2: And it's like I think a lot of guys were
Speaker 2: leather ads.
Speaker 1: But the there's also skydiving movies. There's honey, even in Vegas.
Speaker 1: There's point break.
Speaker 2: Trying to not given more obscure ones because I know
Speaker 2: somebody would say point break almost the immediate point break.
Speaker 2: This point breaks. The Gypsy Moss is a good one
Speaker 2: very fucking old you want to see Hackman again? Like,
Speaker 2: but no, that was rip. It was no James Ponds
Speaker 2: and the guys that all look the same Gene Hackman's
Speaker 2: and Gypsy wants. Uh. That was like, that was a
Speaker 2: very cutting edge movie for the sport at design. I
Speaker 2: had a whole fucking thing pulled up earlier to Yeah,
Speaker 2: so well absolutely picked this up on another one. Yes,
Speaker 2: but Leevill, we'll have to give Levi a list. I
Speaker 2: could do trivia and mean force you guys through stat
Speaker 2: adding trivia. You do that, yeah, and then it could
Speaker 2: be a teaser and you can rerun the questions for Wednesday,
Speaker 2: so anybody that listens has an edge up on the competition.
Speaker 2: Nice that by word. Okay, so what are you doing
Speaker 2: that right? Hey, yeah, I'm gonna make the list of
Speaker 2: best I forgot one the best trivia question. You could
Speaker 2: ask what it is the weirdest item that the local
Speaker 2: elocman sport resident Brad Titus has jumped with in his pocket,
Speaker 2: and then we just list four weird items. But the
Speaker 2: answer it is a pair of dgers. What did you
Speaker 2: have all? One of the guys ninety year old man
Speaker 2: making a sky dive as we were on the news
Speaker 2: and all kinds of shit, and he was told to
Speaker 2: take his teeth out before getting into plane. The problem
Speaker 2: is is he can't talk when he didn't go to steep,
Speaker 2: so they interviewed him and right before he got in
Speaker 2: and he forgot to take him out and we're up
Speaker 2: in the plane and he looks over his shoulder he's like, guys,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, and I'm like what. He's like, I forgot
Speaker 2: my teeth and we all start laughing. So the pilot
Speaker 2: gets in his glove box no joke to get out
Speaker 2: his like manuals and mall books and he takes him
Speaker 2: out with the plastic baggets in. He's like, here, put
Speaker 2: him in this, and then he's like, I'm going to
Speaker 2: need him to talk when we do the interview. And
Speaker 2: then they turn around and look at me, and you
Speaker 2: got a pocket and I'm like, yeah, so I just
Speaker 2: in my pocket. And I had to jump with I
Speaker 2: had to get out after them with enough time to
Speaker 2: be safe and get down to the ground the same time.
Speaker 2: So when I interviewed them, we could fucking speak.
Speaker 1: I had to run over with a bag of teeth
Speaker 1: and then dude, you already in housing on this. So
Speaker 1: you have this guy diving bag teeth in my pocket. So, okay,
Speaker 1: what movies do you have?
Speaker 2: Play Gypsy one of the Gypsy wants Jesse Moss.
Speaker 7: Without a Paddle, Say Moss, Moth, Gypsy Moths, Moth, James Spawn,
Speaker 7: Uh Moonrakers, a spy who loved me? Octopusy of you,
Speaker 7: to kill living Daylight slices to kill Golden on it
Speaker 7: tomorrow and never dies and die another.
Speaker 2: Day by James Bond Without a Paddle is a movie about. Yeah,
Speaker 2: with that, it's a movie about It's got Seth Green,
Speaker 2: Matthew Lillard and they're searching for their searching for dB
Speaker 2: Cooper's lost treasure.
Speaker 1: Like so they I think they jumped, if I'm not wrong,
Speaker 1: don't they jump? I can't remember.
Speaker 2: I thought they did.
Speaker 1: And they got like stuck in a tree and ship
Speaker 1: and fell on the streak with you, Yeah, like it
Speaker 1: something funnier I remember. But anyway, I think that I
Speaker 1: think they jumped in that movie.
Speaker 2: I can't remember any others. So there's not a lot
Speaker 2: Mega death, high speed dirt. You got Alyssa, And then
Speaker 2: I will tell you what quotes we use constantly because
Speaker 2: that's where he got most of the lyrics. It was
Speaker 2: just skydiving. No, that's funny. The lyrics is just skydiving ngo. Yeah, No,
Speaker 2: he loved the sky. It was his fucking hobbyh Yeah.
Speaker 2: So Mega Death High Speed Dirt's the only song written
Speaker 2: specifically for and about Skanda. Oh nice, Okay, all right,
Speaker 2: yeah so cool. All right, we got we gotta follow up.
Speaker 2: Then we got to follow up and Lee Bike's got homework.
Speaker 2: Well so do I because I got to refresh myself
Speaker 2: and those. So I'm going to rewatch Honeymoon in Vegas
Speaker 2: with Ale. It's because I told her about it up.
Speaker 2: You watch Nick the others. I don't think I really
Speaker 2: need to rewatch because I pulling brink is like that's it, Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: pulling break. I probably don't rewatched. I might rewatch without
Speaker 2: a paddle. Just the old ones the new one. I
Speaker 2: have to do a refresher because I can't remember. I
Speaker 2: never watched the new one. I only watched the old one.
Speaker 2: The new ones with wing suits, a lot of bank suits.
Speaker 2: The guys who were a part of it, the team
Speaker 2: that did it. It was a mix of actors and
Speaker 2: actual athlete said just like stuff performers. So there was
Speaker 2: a lot good they came from that movie for the sport.
Speaker 2: But then there was a lot mere ship too. But
Speaker 2: that's a whole nother fucking thing. First point break all
Speaker 2: you really need.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because there is a there is a there is
Speaker 1: an update in Brian. Yeah, so the original Point Bray
Speaker 1: part original Patrick Swayze's brother had an over five hundred
Speaker 1: jumps and they started doing that. Patrick Stays was also.
Speaker 2: This guy. Yeah, so it was like and there was
Speaker 2: Keanu Reeves is a lovebe too, only because Matthew Broderick
Speaker 2: said up, yeah, yeah, and Andrew Broderick would not. And
Speaker 2: Elin Dafoe failed the audition. Charlie Sheen failed the audition.
Speaker 2: There was another one, downing Robert, downing Gina. They went
Speaker 2: with cal Reas because they're like, he's the only one
Speaker 2: who could believe it be believed to be an undercover surfer.
Speaker 2: The other guy's fit the vibe, and that's why they
Speaker 2: They picked him because they didn't want him to act
Speaker 2: like he wasn't billing ted. But they picked him because
Speaker 2: they knew he could nail a part of it. Yeah
Speaker 2: that makes sense. So okay, Well that god damned that
Speaker 2: was good. That was that was fun. So yeah, so
Speaker 2: look forward to second part of this and then we'll
Speaker 2: get out of here.
