This is by far one of the best Skydiving Videos, ever. Even by todays standards. It’s not Full HD, or shot on a GoPro.
It’s shot on 16mm Film!
It has some of the best footage ever, even better then a lot of the stuff we see today. I love the big ole, baggy, balloon suits and the ancient rigs.
What’s up with that dude holding on to his pilot chute for so long? Crazy!
I really love the ground to air footage and wish there was a lot more of that seen in todays videos.
Awesome old school exit on a Beech 18. That guy smacked the horizontal stabilizer too. INSANE!
Hang from a Stut? No Way? Give me a Prop!
It even has it’s own Skydiving Theme Song. You can’t get better then the Old School, Retro 70′s Disco Funk.
Too awesome! Love it!
Gotta give much props to the cats who were jumping back then.
The film ends with a great line”
“Happy are Those Who Dream Dreams and are Willing to Pay the Price to See them Come True.”
