  Speaking of BASE jumping, we have a guy in town, Geyer is his name (
spelling).  He is 70+ and goes all over the world base jumping, and gets his
name in mags and newspaper regarding records for the oldest to jump here and
there.  He spoke at our local museum, interesting  fella.  Our town is
Hendersonville, NC ( a retirement world  type town).

He also has the disputed picture (disputed on this list) of hanging from an
inverted Pitts and jumping.

BTW, I didn't see any of those slider things or twisty do's in his pictures.
