Jonathan Cox from Twin Falls is endeavoring to make this attempt official for the Guinness World Record and complete 65 jumps beginning at 7 PM on September 15th.
I'm sure of the exact age of the jumper because the video description doesn't mention it, but it's the youngest I've ever seen pull it off. I applaud whoever this kid is for having courage beyond my own.
This story is one of the saddest that I have read in a long time. A BASE jumper by the name of Austin Carey went missing after landing safely from a jump. A friend posted a tribute to Austin.
BASE jumping has become about as Idaho as potatoes. Especially living in Southern Idaho where people come from around the world to jump off the Perrine Bridge.
Southern Idaho Tourism has just announced, August 26th 2019, that the highly anticipated Wings For Love World Cup BASE Jump Competition has been cancelled.
