Antti Pendikäinen (known from Stunt Freaks Team), Lassi-Pekka Ruuskanen and Anna-Maria Pekkanen are the first Finns to have done a succesful base jump to a moving car. Only two of the previous attempts have succeeded. This time it was the Finns’ time to try.
Check the video to see what happened when both friends, Antti & Lassi-Pekka, tried to do the stunt. Who succeeded, who failed?
The second installment of the Euroland canopy adventures takes place mainly in the Bernese Alps in Switzerland. Sloppy aerials, wingsuit flights, waterfall speedflights, and (dis)tasteful male nudity all occurred in spades. I’m forever thankful to my “special” friends for helping me seem normalish. Also, a shout out to Freeboern Air Sports and EraThr3 for enabling my summer silliness.

We recently received an anonymous video from two London BASE jumpers who had just completed a pretty cloak and dagger stunt from a classy London rooftop bar. Their mission was to find an un-jumped exit within London city limits. Finding a tall building to BASE jump from wasn’t hard but finding one they could get access to… well, that was another story. Eventually they found a swanky rooftop bar near Canary Wharf which fit the bill perfectly. They did the proper reconnaissance, then they marched in and jumped out the window. Maybe not quite as peaceful and contemplative as opening a new exit in nature, but it makes for one helluva story.
