Russian Bungeejumping

russianbungee

English Russia hat Bilder einer neuen, russischen Variante des Bungee-Jumping. In der wartet ein Grüppchen Leute auf einer Bahnbrücke auf den Zug und springen kurz bevor der dann vorbeirauscht alle gemeinsam von der Brücke. WTF?!

It’s new fun in some Russian cities, to jump from the bridge with the rope in a big group, when there is no water under the bridge but raw firm ice, also they use to jump at that same moment when the train is going thru the bridge – just imagine what the machinist could think when he sees a bunch of people standing on the rails just before the moving train, so he probably starts slowing down and then all those people jump out of the bridge…

Retrogame-Remix: Jumpman is fucking back!


(Youtube Direktjumpman)

Von allen, allen Retrogames, ever, ist Jumpman mein Lieblingsspiel. Echt jetz! Ich schreibe das jetzt nicht nur deshalb, weil die Menschen/der Mensch von Mechanically Separated Meat das Game für das Jahr 2009 geremixed haben. Ich hab die 2009er Version gerade angezockt und sie ist leider nicht ganz so fantastisch, wie das Original. Aber egal: Jumpman is fucking back!

Ein Blog über Leute, die vor Kunst rumhüpfen

Genau für sowas gibt es Blogs. Allison aus Washington hat ein Blog, in dem es ausschließlich Fotos von Leuten gibt, die in Museen vor Kunst rumspringen.

I am an avid Art Jumper. Sometimes, while visiting art museums and galleries, I am so excited by what I see that I have to jump for joy.

HÜPF!

Dubai Base Jump

Zwei Jungs sind vom höchsten Gebäude der Welt, dem Burj Dubai, gesprungen. Snip von Current:

Recently it was discovered that the tallest building in the world – the Burj Dubai – had been the scene for a world record (and highly illegal) BASE jump. 1 British man attempted the jump and was successful, while a second man, a Frenchman, was caught before he could jump. They were both arrested and held in Dubai.

What is not known to either the authorities or the world in general, is that 2 men had already succeeded in climbing the tower and base jumping from it without being caught: another Brit and the same Frenchman who was later caught attempting a second jump. They were the first and have gone down as legends in their sport, for claiming the latest jewel in the crown of the sport. This is the story of that jump.

Okay, sorry für dieses Video. Aber ich musste eben in mein Kissen beissen, um nicht allzulaut zu lachen.

‘Kaptain’ Knievel Jumps 24 Trucks at Ohio Theme Park

Robbie “Kaptain” Knievel, son of the late Evel Knievel, jumped his motorcycle over a record-setting 24 delivery trucks Saturday night at Kings Island amusement park in Mason, Ohio. And he made it look easy.

“Hopefully I’ll see you after the jump,” Knievel told the crowd before the stunt. He said he’d need to hit 95 mph to pull off the 200-foot jump. You can see the stunt, performed with the requisite pillars of flame in the background, in the clip at right.
