  • Um it says he didn't bring cameras so that's just one of his other jumps, no? So that makes this just a video of his good dude and Chris Collinsworth talking about what happened right? Very boo.

  • died on my birthday , but not the same year

  • "He was found in piecesfully on the canyon floor."

  • holy shit i gotta see what this Northern Pacific rattlesnake is about.

  • I miss dan :(

  • i so wanted the rope to snap. he even looks like he has an extra 21st chromosome

  • Is this fucking Chris Collinsworth?

  • Who is narrating this video?

  • Aww fuck BRAH, just a semi-swish BRAH!!! YOU NEVER WANNA GO SEMI-SWISH BRAH!!!!

  • rumour has it Dan's life story is being sponsored by Spam. And Ketchup.

  • @mickdel Yeah, and your moms face is sponsored by my dick.

  • Wow. 

  • Does anyone else notice chris collingsworth doing play by play? lol wtf.

  • I hate it when my good bro dies...

  • ROGAN

  • what an Idiot...WHAT A LOSER!!!.....MA'AH THE MEATLOAF!!!

  • pretty brutal

  • I bet his friend pushed him. Lol

  • @jesserai well put.

  • @PackerBronco if thats what you have to tell yourself....

  • Fuck all that...

  • @junkyardjay fag.

  • Im not one to judge anybody but, after your children are born things like freefalling off a cliff should cease to exist in your life.

  • i wouldnt use peaceful to describe the way they found him laying on the rocks from a fall that far... pieces maybe.

  • Is that Chris Collinsworth commenting?

  • do you get any real money for breaking records?

  • Comment removed

  • "I know that my good bro is dead". Quite an epitaph. Pushing the envelope, having a "life wish" or whatever other dumbass name you want to give it is fine when you are 23 and don't have responsibilities, very Hemingwaysian. This self-centered twat had a child to love and raise. I guess its up to the "village" to do that now. Nice.

  • "...that I know, my good bro is dead." LOL what a dood.

  • he must have grown tired of Cris collinsworth talking like everyone eles

  • Guy must have hated himself for some reason.

  • Ooops. Guardian Angels must've taken the day off, eh? Explain that to your daughter, 'hero'. Oh, you're dead, so you can't.

  • The announcer sounds like Cris Collinsworth from Sunday Night Football.

  • Lying peacefully on the floor...as opposed to flopping on the ground like a Replicant from BladeRunner

  • Who cares....Whitney Houston is dead!!!

  • Joe Rogan sent me here!

  • @TheMetallicaGods And your the only dick'ed who let everyone know what a cunt you are!!

  • @rizla88  your a dumb fuck and Joe Rogan is the shit!

  • @rizla88 Oh yeah, almost forgot!

  • His good bro cut the rope!

  • If you want an adrenaline rush, have sex without a condom in Amsterdam. Wait two weeks, then get a blood test. Then we'll see who is heroic.

  • @tedwilli9 thats not a rush thats a good weekend!

  • @tedwilli9 PMSL

  • He became ignorant to nature, we adventurers should know always respect the mountain. Never become ignorant towards the dangers they possess.

  • Heroic? Jumping off a cliff just to experience the adernaline rush is heroic? Okay, whatever trips your trigger. I think most people have a bit higher standard for heroism other than being an adrenaline junky and self sacrifice for the sake of others is a mandatory requirement.

  • Last fatal jump? You mean he's had fatal jumps previous to this one?

  • @genenco1 Hahaha i realized that too

  • @genenco1 uh, yea. dumbass. 

  • Are you kidding me? 21 people liked the comment implying that this guy is not a real man? Of course he didnt want to die. He was following his passion in life.

    More power to the ones Chasing Their Dreams. Stay true to yourself and let the haters hate.

  • Rest In Peace !

  • At least he died doing something he loved. Me, I'd rather die doing something I loved than sitting on my ass at home when im 90 years old on the couch.

  • what a waste,too bad for his little girl,that should of been,his concern,sometimes we push the envelope to far.

  • RIP Dan

  • is he dead!?

  • @Xboxskaterlass He has been for some time now.

  • @Xboxskaterlass

    let's just say, he won't be making any more jumps.

  • hahahaha i read osama LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

  • I met Dan many times in the early 80's and he was lucky to live as long as he did. I think there is something missing mentally in people who completely trust their lives on rock holds or do or die equipment. I have fallen dozens of times even on easy routes from rocks breaking that I had used a 100 times. So many great guys push their luck till it fails. Basically they are killing themselves every time but the gun lands on an empty chamber and they spin the cylinder and go again.

  • Good flying there Goober.

  • Now cracks a noble heart: good night my good bro,

    And Flights of angels herald thee to thy rest

  • You play with the dead ....

  • Darwinism at it's most blatant. If he cared so much about his daughter, then why continue such a risky lifestyle? Do it for the high? Then hes no better then crack parents who put their owns needs in front of those who actually need them.

  • ha yea lying peacefully in a pile of blood, bones, and flesh

  • R.I.P you are legend Dan Osman :,(

  • I wouldn't go as far as to call people like this heroes, definitely not. I would however go as far as to call him extremely brave. I admire the hell out of rock climbers, I certainly couldn't do it.

  • Reminds me of Jeb Corliss, the wingsuit flyer, he ran into a rock at 100 mph last month (Jan 2012) hope he's doing okay.

  • What would have been more heroic would be to put his selfish desires on hold for his 12 yr old daughter.

  • mysteriously snapped? He left it out to the elements for 3 weeks then decided to use it again. What type of idiot does that?

  • Did he have a first fatal jump? :s

  • Simply stupid was sky diveing not good enough for him

  • A peaceful pile of jam perhaps yeah

  • "Lying peacefully (piecefully?) at the bottom of the canyon"

  • @themathdude07 that just sounds totally moronic doesn't it, there is NOTHING peaceful about falling 1000 ft and hitting rock!!!!

  • "He died doing what he loved." Yeah - breathing!

  • What a fucking idiot

  • He didnt die in a bath or by some genetic defect. He died like a real man doing what he loved.

  • A real man understands that he must be there to raise his children.

  • @PackerBronco amen, heroes do things for others.

  • @PackerBronco Great comment PackerBronco!

  • @PackerBronco This guy lived everyday on the edge. He probably started this long before his daughter was around. Dan lived every day to the fullest. We should be so lucky to be able to chase our dreams so completely as he did. I hope his daughter never hears people like you and I hope that she chases her dreams just like her father.

  • Really? Let's say a person's dream is to be a stock broker. That's what the person really loves. Not your cup of tea, but it's his. Now, let's further speculate that he loves it so much that he works late, persues his interest and dies of an eary heart attack. No one here is going to say, "good for him, he died but he was doing what he loved." They would say "what a heartless b*st*rd". You admire the stuff this guy did, I get that; but that doesn't make it a noble death.

  • @PackerBronco Eff children, they're annoying.

  • @PackerBronco A real man free climbs you bitch

  • @PackerBronco Another reason why one needn't have children...

  • Era totalmente impresionante lo que asía, sin dudas!!!...pero como en todo deporte de riesgo se esta jugando con la vida propia cada segundo...era un fenómeno de otro planeta...el mejor escalador de todos los tiempos, murió en su ley

  • RIP Dan .

    

  • U tempt death long enough , he will get u . Its just a matter of time

  • There's nothing heroic about doing suicide jumps. Sure, the guy did things that 99.9999999% of the world population couldn't do in a million years.....but why did he have a death wish? Was he put on this eart to live a short life tempting death every day?

    Why did he have a child...knowing he had a death wish?

  • @RapIsDeadly it's not a death wish it's just a need to do something i know the feeling doing nothing will drive me insane i always have to try and do stuff that just give you a rush that make you feel good for hours afterwards. A long life spent safe is not as well lived as a short life spent at the max :D

  • @RapIsDeadly Weren't you listening? It's called a "life wish".

  • Tarzan, nice too meet you.

  • he changed the angle at the last moment and as a result jumped accidentally over the safety rope which then was cut by the friction heat.

  • Lee Corso?

  • Why the he** would you do this...

  • lying peacefully on the forest floor

  • I know what happens at the edge of death "DEATH"

  • R.I.P. Dan

  • Thats the way these guys live EVERY DAY.They are in a strange way HEROIC for doing things that make others believe anything is possible.If there is a heaven hes there.Showing angels what its really like to fly.This man will always have respect in my home.

  • @jasrogg heroic? heroic is saving lives, not jumping off cliffs for fun.

  • Comment removed

  • @jasrogg That's gay with a side of FAG!

  • if you live by the sword, you die by the sword... this man had GIGANTIC balls, unfortunately for him: ropes and mountains don't give a fuck!

  • I found this is his last jump -.-

  • What extreme sports participants do on their time is their business. More power to them. But doing this, knowing there is a high risk of death, while having a family with young children is idiotic and selfish. And any one who would support this over family first is an idiot as well. So stop with the retarded "we experience life to the fullest" comments.

  • No hero ,no brains. A record for what? No dad for a selfish goal. Very stupid thing to do. I feel bad for the little girl left behind. Let this be a wake up call to all those other selfish people pursuing aimless dreams that matter not. What a waste/

  • @lewandlo what matters then, mr. smartypants =)

  • @Ledrinker His daughter, dumbass!!

  • @lewandlo He pushed the envelope of human achievement and kept the gene pool sharp and top notch. If we left it up to couch sitters like you we would be in devolution. He lived more in 1 hour than you will in your whole life.

  • @lewandlo It was an accident man, you can't predict this kind of thing the guy loved his daughter you act like he intentionally left his family behind chill out bro.

  • Comment removed

  • This motherfucker is nuts.

  • R.I.P.

  • I stopped the download as soon as I opened this. I just have to ask, is this really a video of a guy killing himself?

    Now ask yourselves, why do you want to watch a video of a man falling to his death?

  • @JKT84 No, It is more a video about Dan Osman and his record. His final jump wasn't taped.

  • @dyer1313

    then this is a very misleading title. I respect the guy and what he did. He balls must be as big as a bull's to do what he did.

    I just never know what sick the thing the internet is going to throw at me. I've been tricked into watching some pretty fucked up shit in my day

  • @JKT84 No he does not! :D

  • @JKT84 heard about it at the darwin awards and wanted to see it.

  • fucking redneck

  • sad part is that he left his daughter alone when he died in 1998... :S

  • Am I the only one who thought he only jumped so his buddy would have to pack out all the gear?

  • sry but this is just retarded! it makes me angry to see how easy some people throw their lives away :( and im asking myself just one question:" why?" why couldnt he atleast have a parachute ! :( :(

  • @2507ivana and what are people going to remember you for ?

  • Shit happens.

  • One more demo of Darwin's theory. @fallenskater I was going to ask the same question when I saw the title. Got to pity his daughter and all of his family.

  • clip from a tv show is "rare footage"?

  • @BrodeFinePortraiture rare footage on youtube...

  • @BrodeFinePortraiture and it's old.

  • 240p so we meet again...

  • Miles jumped before Dan that day on the same rigging. He is actually the current living record holder, but he refuses the title in honor of Dan.

  • guy with a daughter kills himself. that's not a free spirit, it's stupid.

  • It was incredibly just unutterably stupid for him to have jumped on ropes he had left out there for 3 weeks. They could have been weathered. They could have been tampered with. They could have been stressed too much from the last jump. No matter what it was, they failed and he died and it was incredibly stupid.

  • foolish risk taking (compared to calculated risk taking)

    common sucker's problem

  • and i knew my good bro was dead

  • he should have listened to his body/soul telling him that he should not do this. there are several moments in your life where you HAVE to listen.

  • @Nhordmyr maybe his body/soul told him to jump, ever think of that?

  • I'm pretty sure his mentality was " if its your time then it's your time". I admire this guy a lot. Just by listening to him speak, he seems like a down to earth guy. R.I.p brotha

  • @seeweed22

    Well, I for one don't care to encourage my time to come by doing things like this. I'm not saying others aren't free to, but safety should always be top priority and jumping with ropes that have been left up for weeks is just stupid and unsafe.

  • It may well be a deficiency in a particular brain enzyme that engages circuit breakers that keep one from taking these risks. A slight deficiency leads to roller coaster rides. A serious deficiency can lead to mountain climbing ! My circuit breakers are strong, locked ! I may live into my 90's, but that also depends on several other factors.

  • @EmmetEarwax some could also say you are boring and never did anything interesting or exciting

  • base jumping may have been safer than this JESUS

  • if you gotta die. There are worse ways to go.

  • "Dan was found dead, lying "peacefully" on the canyon floor....." yeah right..probably turned into cream.The truth is Dan was a psycho... and he fucked up.

  • @tsaki1987 hahahahahahhaha

  • @tsaki1987 and you knew him personally to conclude this

  • certainly.. better than cocaine heroine sex alcohol and most certainly more fun to die… gloomy Sunday…
  • Egocentric asshole. I feel sorry for his daughter. He had no sense of responsibility for the one he loved. Free spirit and love for live? Bullshit.

  • @shiftedrealitydotcom Certainly, you ARE NOT a free spirit, and does NOT love your life, if you believe that the ones you love put you on a leash, instead of setting you free!

    Simple minded...

  • @beronhatkdz A leash (rope) sometimes keeps you alive, whilst freedom (freefall) kills you at the end. But "Egocentric asshole" is a bit too much, I agree - true egocentric assholes don't risk their own life, they risk others'.

  • with complete respect, if your scared or nervous dont do it...

  • Now that is entertaining!

  • the man put his death-defying hobby before his family. what a lack of priority.

  • who just got goosbumps? i know i did

  • @dajbajasamja I also held my breath through the 1st jump!!!

  • He has ballz i will never achieve!

  • thumbs up if your hands are sweating

  • @Burkey817 they are - fear

  • @Burkey817 yeah but i was masturbating.

  • Some of the remarks made on Youtube are more fit for one of these gore websites where people log on to get their rocks off by looking at pics & videos of suicides, animals run over, hit & runs, and other gore ! Then they make some wise-crack ! Well, let's see you make wise-cracks if your grandmother or beloved pet becomes roadkill !

  • @Burkey817 what the heck?!? TThey just started sweating?!

  • is that Colin Cowheard commentating!?!?

  • his life, his choice what to do with it.

  • i dont think dan osman wasted his time posting on youtube videos...
