BASE inside a church
I'm not sure how to embed this. If someone can it would be great.

Wow. The wiki says the building is 89m (292ft) tall. His jump had to be less than that. What is the minimum height needed to base jump.

For a hand held deploy you'd be looking at something around 50m. Maybe a bit less if you don't really like yourself.

sounds about right. mcconkey did it off the front of beck's, which was probably less than 150'. I was there the first time (i think he did it again) and it looked like to me like the canopy popped like 15-20' off the deck, maybe less Originally Posted by jerr

If things seem in control, Your just not going fast enough.
