nearly 200,000 spectators are expected to attend “Bridge Day” this year, on Saturday, October 20, 2007. Bridge Day is the largest extreme sports event in the world and is held on the third Saturday in October every year in Fayette County, West Virginia (WV), USA. Hundreds of BASE jumpers attend. Anybody can watch this exciting feat, but not just anybody can jump. Jumpers must first skydive numerous times from aircraft before attempting to BASE jump. Jumpers must also register in advance. Jumper registration begins on July 1, 2007 at www.bridgeday.info, a website dedicated to Bridge Day BASE jumping. For questions regarding Bridge Day BASE jumping, please visit www.bridgeday.info.
I guess I got to start putting in some “regular” jumps. So far I only got one :-(.
