Base Jumping

Base Jumping is the best application if you want to know everything about Base Jumping.

BASE jumping, also sometimes written as B.A.S.E. Jumping, is parachuting or wingsuit flying from a fixed structure or cliff. "BASE" is an acronym that stands for four categories of fixed objects from which one can jump: building, antenna, span, and earth (cliff). Due to the lower altitudes of the jumps, BASE jumping is more dangerous than skydiving from a plane. In the U.S., BASE jumping is currently being watched by many as a fringe extreme sport or stunt.

In some jurisdictions or locations, BASE jumping is prohibited or illegal; In some places, however, it is allowed, like Perrine Bridge, in Twin Falls, Idaho, USA. Sunshine Superman "," Sunshine Superman "," Sunshine Superman "," Sunshine Superman "and" Sunshine Superman ".

BASE jumping grew out of skydiving. BASE jump to the bottom of the jump platform. Because BASE jumps generally entails slower airspeeds than typical skydives (due to the limited altitude), a BASE jumper does not always reach terminal velocity.

As the airspeeds enable jumpers more aerodynamic control of their bodies, as well as more positive and quick parachute openings, the longer the delay, the better. BASE jumping is more than just like sports.

Skydivers use the air flow to stabilize their position, allowing the parachute to deploy cleanly. BASE jumpers, falling at lower speeds, have less aerodynamic control, and may tumble.

The attitude of the body at the moment of jumping determines the stability of the air in the first few seconds, before sufficient airspeed has built up to enable aerodynamic stability. On low BASE jumps, parachute deployment takes place during this early phase of flight, so if a poor "launch" leads into a tumble, the jumper may not be able to correct this before the opening.

If the parachute is deployed while the jumper is tumbling, there is a high risk of entanglement or malfunction. The jumper may also not be facing the right direction. Such an off-heading is not a problem in skydiving, but an off-heading which results in serious injuries and deaths in BASE jumping.

BASE jumping as of 2006 has an overall fatality per sixty participants. A study of 20,850 BASE jumps from the same site (the Kjerag Massif in Norway) reported 9 fatalities over the 11-year period from 1995 to 2005, or 1 in every 2,317 jumps. However, at this site, 1 in every 254 jumps over that period resulted in a nonfatal accident. BASE jumping is one of the most dangerous recreational activities in the world, with a fatality and injury rate 43 times as high as parachuting from a plane.


As of 20 June 2016, the 'BASE Fatality List' maintained by Blincmagazine.com records 285 deaths for BASE jumping since April 1981.

American BASE jumper Ian Flanders died in Kemaliye, Turkey on 21 July 2015, after his parachute was tangled into his feet causing him to fall into the Karasu river at high speed. The jump was aired live on a local television station.
