Try that on ROXs 42Bb.

Two things
1. At that height hitting the water is like slapping concrete.
2. The rotation of the earth DOESNT play a factor in his landing.

Those braces on his knees are there for a damn good reason.
ChromePlatedEquator
That's a hard NO for me, dawg.

I'm allowed to fly my drone to a maximum of 30 meters in many places. Never really bothered me to much cause that IS indeed pretty high.

Ordinarily fatal above 95 feet without training and conditioning.
HypnagogicHallucinations
Occasionally fatal above 95 feet with training and conditioning.

For a moment I thought he was jumping into the river, then I realized that was just the background.
rezpawner
Big deal. Bugs Bunny did the same thing, and landed in a teacup.

This ultra high diving was big on TV in the early 80s but haven't seen it much since
RecurringNightmare
because safety concerns and insurance rules got stricter, while the challenge to one-up any given record got more difficult and risky every time it got beaten...in general, doesnt apply to high diving alone, lots of weird challenges and extreme sports in the 80s and 90s that went back to obscurity while now other stuff happens, because of this...
cgt9803
I figured it was something like that. Athletes dying or being crippled doesn't make good TV entertainment.
SirRealOfTheShire
Still not as high is Elon Musk
GSH116
With my luck I would have landed about an 8th of a rotation less - perfectly front down - head to toe - a belly flop to Hell with the complimentary nut tap that I'd still be feeling to this day / I'd realize the second I jumped that they goofed on construction and I'm above the shallow end / Or it would be like the scene in Jurassic World when the Pterosaur enclosure busted.
ICanStopScrollingAnyTime
Pshaw. I can dive 5 feet into my own snot.
FellaWithUmbrella
I could probably climb that tower about five feet…
HypnagogicHallucinations
It kept zooming out. I thought I was seeing the bottom and it just kept going.
whisker99
Why do when you can don't?
Jaqdakloun
I'm just as high right now

Emilio Estevez sure was in top physical form back in the 1980's. 😏😉
Saitama4589
most based comment I've seen all day aha
TheMellowPeril
Too much splash. Mark it zero.
TurnsOut42WasASlightMiscalculation
Oh, now, let's not be harsh. That was a lot of splash but there are other elements to a dive. Give him a two

Nobody can do that dive. It’s too dangerous!

Entertainment. We didn't have the Internet back then. Remember that competitive walking was a thing
QuantumInc
High dive is prestigious world record.
ilhares
Yeah.... no. I'm not sure I've got the bravery for that. Not even if the building I was in was on fire.
magical8ball
It's not bravery, it's just.. the end.
ilhares
It was going to be the end either way.
nik282000
Rookie numbers. I can dive 90 meters into a damp sponge.
SilverPossum
Pshaw. I can do 900 meters into a dry sponge. Exactly once.
hyperchondriac
The sponge will not be dry after.
firlefranz
Yes, you can. /s
RatOnnaStick
Aaaand that’s how damp sponge is made.
SOLARvsFACISM
That sentence sounds familiar, like some deep memory trying to reveal itself. What is that from?
SirWeakLink
When I read it I pictured Bugs Bunny doing it, so maybe that?
georgejimmydoodle
Same!
