[rrr1sportrider]

Quang ching chan ming gunhg hi chow chie

[gohansan5001]

[Domexpo]

I did fake sky diving, where a fan propels you up.

[say12thebear]

[russellmac1]

i wouldnt do this if some one tryd to kill me and i was in a plane and it was the onley way out wait yes i would lol

[killaofvinila99]

he reminds me of jim from the office for some reason

[KenwoodKlown]

We did a couple of jumps, exactly like this too, it was unbelievable, wouldn't ever ever do it again tho hehehe.

[nevertoolate90]

...no freaking way you would EVER get me to do that... 0.o. My brother and sister-in-law did that once. Crazy. Hope u had fun though.

[jfcw]

wut song is this????????? i want to do this so bad but im scared because i might die in a freak non opening parachute accident

[ChibbiYumi]

daft punk - around the world?

[slowdive922]

wut song is this? are you... slow?

[shandling]

you wont

[TigerNF]

You should try HALO 8Km free fall. now thats awesome

[CampbellX]

(late comment) you should try Tandem (spelling?) where you are strapped 2 a professional, it is A LOT higher and you get to free fall for MINIMUM 10secs, now thats awesome

[tsandre]

awsome shit!

[bopzgenerator]

I'd like to think that I could do that, but....jury is out. You guys are freakin awesome to do that

[jumpacliff2]

wow that must have been fun. wonder what it felt like when you hit the ground. me i'am would shit my pants being that high. you got guts. I clap to that

[rottenlemons]

good stuff man!! you make me wanna do it!

[verycrazypsychofreak]

AMAZING

[0neTwoThree]

i pissed myself just watching..

[kezza596]

I want to do this when I'm older!! =D

[Kyaoh]

Scott eats dirt! Yay. Sweet video. I'd personally shit my pants. ;D

[EnemyNo1]

why can you jump out there all alone? i think in germany you have to do a tandemjump. you have to take practice lessons to jump on your own...

[stankinlincoln]

yeah I think that's how it's here today, one of my friends went skydiving and on his first jump he had a choice of either a tandem or he could dive himself but 4 experienced people had to basically hold onto him and kept him stablized. his was video taped too and that shits crazy

[MAPCHE]

I LOVE IT

[SAMEASTHEM]

Go back and free fall. If you like this, you'll freek at the freefall.

[alannax97]

Hell noooooo :)

[tsummerlee]

I think I need surgery to get my stomach back in place. Hangin' offa that beam thing before ya'll let go was terrifying to watch.

[thedisturbedave]

wow thats fucking awesome. ur my hero

[Rabownsyou]

Makes me dizzy from just wathcing this video :P

[DontShootSam]

That's one hell of a gift. Looks like great fun..

[BobLogan]

you are not mark zukerberg!!

[utnow]

exactly... I'm Scott! (and Mark is the fool who turned down 1.6billion from yahoo. *slaps mark*)

[hnnguyen]

cuz i dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up parachute?

[scottklaw]

Merry Christmas cool one.

[ckuttruff]

Scott, all I have to say is you are fucking excellent--a true renaissance man through and through. Enjoy your holiday season.

Peace,

-Chris

[goose1077]

So we're UTNow now

[BobLogan]

cool vid, dawg

[bushisatweeker]

that was a cool vid. you should see if you can get one of those helmet cameras.

[dasilva94]

last entry directed by Lars Von Trier in 1989

[dasilva94]

Your jump was great, perhaps the next time you will wait of your falling down before you pull the cord!

[tlg847]

Only time I ever wanted to do that was in the six months immediately following my divorce. Then, I must have gone into another phase, 'cause now it scares the shit out of me! Nice vid, Scott.

[slothstew]

Damn!! I've always wanted to do that!!! Now I want to again...

[bestmariel]

that was cool vid! awesome!

[wledoux]

I didn't know that DaftPunk was known outside of France.

Great video by the way

[mynamesdan]

i went to bristol in the back of a van on an old man's comfy chair and all i had on my ipod shuffle was that song about twenty times or so. didn't matter what i pressed. satisfaction guaranteed. took about four hours. mint.

[thebomp]

omg i got adrenaline just watching that lol, ive always wanted to do that though it's amazing

[jaredcheeda]

scott, that's not flying. that's falling (with style)

[JuMpThEcOuCh]

omg cool man

[gunterd16]

That was a kick ass gift man!! Looks like it was a blast!! SWEET!!

[Syd1940]

Why any sane person jumps out of a perfectly serviceable aeroplane is beyond me :) Surely you had some instruction before the jump? Like how to land without breaking an ankle.

btw You've got a great girlfriend there. She's a keeper - so keep 'er :)

[Zreekee]

LOL my line would have been " I just did something involuntary...and messy." <--stolen from Sid of Ice Age 2

braver than me.

[brandonptx]

Gotta love the camera guy saying the same cheesy things he says to everybody, "Give me a thumbs up!"

[burntonion]

They let you go solo on your first time?

[bigjstokes]

hook 'em

[enq2040]

Looks fun. Go higher next time and pull the chute yourself! It has a stronger thrill effect. :) You might even pee a little.

[FaulerHund]

Actually skydiving is the part when u don't open your parachute yet. What you did is a jump with a parachute...

[utnow]

Static line. yes. But I never said skydiving. ;)  You did.

[writer616]

hahahaha thats awesome. i want to skydive now :)

[ludwigvan888]

landing: not bad at all!

[Neotears]

Neat.

Wonder how expensive that is Oo;

[jmguzman10]

200 pounds in seville, spain ;)

[aaron67w]

the only reason i made it throught this whole video is the daft punk

[ad3543]

My wife and I went skydiving on our first date. Its a memorable experience.

[HiMyNameIsAsh]

you look thrilled!!! i wish i wasn't so afraid of heights!!

[Blunty3000]

LIES! the art of FLYING is being able to throw yourself at the ground, and miss! - You, Scott, most certainly did not miss ;)

[navyang3l]

I'd be so scared >.<

[echo0489]

this video seems very similar to the video that my bio teacher had when he went skydiving... anyways, LOOKS LIKE FUN !

[Demetrier]

wow, i REALLY want to skydive now. >.>

[patriotaction]

That's awesome stuff, Scott. Thanks for sharing it on You Tube.

[kris2pe]

So rad! U should have brought ur cam while falling down!

[iwolfy]

i would have died

}:

[Kzanderall]

Dude, you look WAY better without all that hair on your face. You have a nice, scar-free forehead... why not show it off?? Leave the hair-all-over-the-place to those who have something to hide.

You got a nice present from a really nice girl.

[xinfinity62]

ooh, looks like fun you crazy crazy person, lol

[sergio4652]

that was awesome, great video!

[alicat]

That looked like so much fun!! I can't wait to try that some day. You always make me happy for some reason.

[krajikevin]

Wow i would die of panic in thatkinda situation but you pulled it off with out so much as a flinch amazing.

[greylondonskies]

Kyaa~

You and your girlfriend are so cute together!! =D

Good video, that made my day.

Again.

[jbre5]

Iwonder if they hook up Wheel chairs ? Great Video

[tripplehelix]

lol fantastic :D I have a glider gift ticket i got for my birthday :D I'm going just after Christmas :D

[utnow]

ooh...  that, bungie from a hotairbaloon, and para sailing are still on my list. ;)

[tripplehelix]

I sooooo desperately want to go sky diving. :)

[BigBird1337]

I've always wanted to hot air ballooon. Sweet video!

[tapoe]

stop smiling ajjajajajajjajj

[n8guy]

How'd you get away with not doing it with an instructor strapped to your back? I guess everything IS bigger in Texas...

[CastG4]

You don't need an instructo to yur back when you do those kind of jumps because there is no free-fall..The shoot opens automatically when you jump

[jack3670420]

woohoooo. thats fun

[nightq]

Holy Crap! u got the coolest GF! luck u!

[philippe1985]

ahaha I did this last summer. Scott ! DONT LOOK AT THE GROUND ! that's why you hit the floor.

It's funny because my teacher told us that boys are better at getting out of the plane and girls are better for landing.

[Doodsjager]

you just upped your coolness, UTNOW

[secondstereo]

my boyfriend loves skydiving. i'm not as cool as your girlfriend though to think of that for a gift.

[pegalex]

Great show my friend!! You guys can skydive "anytime" and I'll be happy to sit right here in my recliner and watch!! What a great experience to be able to have in your life!! Thanks for sharing!!

[blkbishop112]

I've done that once, it truly is amazing.

[pppppanic]

That looked amazing! Glad you had fun.

[rdwo]

Amanda is quite adventurous and you look quite happy. Thanks for sharing.

[rdwo]

What ever you do never mention this when you go to buy life insurance.

[dorkified9]

that must have been fun! i would have been scared to death though.

[samhartopp]

u got more balls that me mate i wud never do that

[marcoseiji]

your face when you get to the ground is priceless. must've been an amazing experience.

[chipmunchie]

i wanna doooo thaat... but im afraid of heights ='(

[AlexRawlings]

Awesome vid and good to see you grinning your ass off after. Nice landing and for a first jump you did amazing.

[sibstoohy]

[PinkColoredKittyCat]

Amazing! I want to try that too! *tsk I'm jalous now...*

[cateyesTV]

[casiesilverman]

[disneyhokie]

Wow, amazing. Great job :) Looks really fun! I've been thinking of skydiving. Were you scared??

[JohnnyTico]

awesome!

[adryroseinbloom]

Wow.

[my15minutes]

Helluva cool gift there, Scott. Now all you have to do is paint a self-portrait, and write a novel.

[funkyphreakout]

Flared a bit hard? How long have you been skydiving?

[utnow]

whew... since.. err.. never?

[funkyphreakout]

hmmm, I was under the impression you were required to tandem jump a number of times before you got certified to jump by yourself...

[utnow]

nope. lol. first jump

[philxbefore9]

@funkyphreakout you can't freefall solo but you can static line solo which is what they did.

[Chamo21]

awesome

[Tsipos]

hehe

Cool

[TheAbsurdTruth]

I'm seven feet tall and I'm made of depleted uranium.

[rockhoppa]

Wicked!

[scottklaw]

Cool.

[ebaymag0t]

sWiit

[AFareWellSetsFire]

Skydiving is one of those things that I really want to do, yet don't know if I could handle the fear of the risks involved... great video though.

[thecookiestealer]

Ohmygosh. I would've pissed myself in fear... victory urine! Byaah. :)

looks fun.

[AFareWellSetsFire]

first?
