base jump

Any jump off the Perrine Bridge is insane to me. I've seen people take the plunge on skateboards, in costumes, from the top of passing trucks, and even on fire, but this raises the bar really high.

Since the announcement was made on the Southern Idaho Tourism website in May, locals are growing more and more excited about the opportunity to host jumpers from across the globe in this first ever organized competition in Twin Falls.

A well executed backflip, followed by a textbook landing by one of the day's jumpers, provides a unique angle of both the bridge and the activity itself, and at the same time is a stark reminder of how tiny human beings are compared to nature.

It blows my mind that there are people who not only willingly BASE jump from the bridge, but they enjoy it.

A BASE jumper was flown to the hospital after a hard landing Monday evening in the Snake River Canyon.

This latest post gives viewers a little different perspective of what it's like standing on that ledge, and taking that beautiful leap above the Snake River.

These brave soles make this look ridiculously easy.

When Danny Weiland attempted to set the record for most BASE jumps in a day at the Perrine, something special happened at the end and it was captured in an amazing Instagram pic.

There are some things that can only happen in Twin Falls. Here's an example. A guy on top of a truck going 45 mph across the Perrine Bridge jumps off. Yep, that happened and I have the picture to prove it.

I live in Twin Falls yet I'm terrified of heights. Makes perfect sense, right? With that fact in mind, I have created a playlist of what I would love to have in my headphones if I were to ever BASE jump off the Perrine. This will never happen, but let's play pretend.

The Twin Falls Visitor Center construction is looking good and there has been a lot of buzz about the Canyon Park West Shopping Center. This weekend you can see it all for yourself!

I dunno... the Perrine Bridge suddenly seems less intimidating, but on the other hand, since you don't need a license to do this in Twin Falls, maybe it still is the more dangerous of the two!
