Absolutely amazing video. My wife and I were there that night. Everyone should see the Bristol race at least once. You will never forget the experience.
@sixtiesforever1966 He's jumping from between 4,500 and 5,000 AGL. I can't quite make out his altimeter but it looks like when he looks it's saying 4.6 or 4.8 which would be 4,600 or 4,800 feet.
he hit his mark perfect. great job. what a blessing this was for me to watch this. i felt touched for some reason. dont watch to many time though. make you kinda dizzy
@nebulousband Sorry, no lie. He was the brother of my son's stepdad. Mark had a wonderful celebration of his life here in his hometown of Indianapolis in June.
I'm going to that race in a few weeks. It will be my fourth visit there in five years and my third visit in a row. We did the world's biggest wave there last year. I can't wait to see what they're going to have us do this year.
I was at the August race in 2003 and there was a guy who did this. Not sure if it was the same guy, but it was cool to see. I got lots of good pictures.
I've never seen a race at Bristol but I have had the experience to walk the banks and Dang those banks are fricken steep. I crawled down because i was afraid i was gonna trip and ram my head into the wall.. lol
A fantasy to do a jump of a life time and experience just once !!! What if the shute malfunctions??? I will take my chances on the Bristol track . THATS MY FANATASY
Man, this is about the very best video i've seen out there in a long time. First, it has no music. Second, it has live ambient sound, well recorded. It seems you can hear the breath of the jumper. Jumping to the oval target. The roar of the crowd which you hear from reasonably far. Soft, surreal landing.
This must be one experience in life. It's good to see the right video of it.
my family and i go to bristol spring and fall race every year for about 12 years now and this is awesome pre race activities they play god bless the usa and this guy comes out of the sky with a huge american flag tears come to my eyes every year when i see this
WOW! Great video!! As a NASCAR fan I can't think of a better race track that I would like to attend for a race. As a fellow skydiver, I can't think of a better venue to do an exhibition jump. Blue skies!!!
a mi me parece extraordinario esta pista no es gran cosa pero la capasidad de publico q tiene es impresionante, porq son mas 200.000 mil persona bordeando toda la pista... apesar de q la pista como tal se usa 2 o 3 fines de semana al año... se hacen millonarios los dueños con tal magnitud de entradas q venden impresionante
