1. killing yourself doing something patently stupid: OK tieing yourself to a bunch of uncontrollable ballons while not knowing how to use your safety equipement to replicate another patently stupid act,Check!
2. Doing so before you pass your "Stupid" genes onto another generation thus improving the species: Lets see, Catholic Priest, no distraught female parishiners coming forward with a paternity claim, OK check!
even though it may seem stupid, his cause is very noble. so i applaud this priest for attempting to break a world record and raising money for a church.
@photodrift sorry but the church itself (the catholic) does not provide monetary assistance to a certain parish u tool. Hence there are congregations that are inspired by simple lifestyle of its saints.
I live here near, in Joinville - Brasil (sorry my English). What he mades was stupid because in certain time he ask for help because he didnt know how to operate the GPS device with him in fly. But the most awesome was he didint know the direction of the winds. I dont understand it till now. Some comments here indicates he was unpolite in the parapents courses months ago. In this region there are many dangerous places and inhospitable and he will need help. God save him.
I love the Darwin awards. Nice job, preachy boy.

No point in being 'equipped' with a GPS device if your not smart enough to learn to use it BEFORE you need it.
'Where are you?'
'Over some water.'
'Whats it say on the GPS?'
'Garmin, I think thats the manufacturer'.
'No, I mean, Where are you?'
'OVER WATER!!! HALP'

@ronulus1 It's called a shadow. Sometimes made by helicopters as they film their search rescues for missing priests.

When you're a priest, you can only meet with your boss once. This priest met his boss.

he was stupid enough to believe in an imaginary friend to begin with, he totally deserved it.

He had faith, but faith without intellegence and understanding is fatal. This time it took one life, too often it takes thousands upon thousands.
