ok 76'. Just wait until the water level drops and then it will be 80'. The second kid jumping got knocked out. The only person I can remember their name in this video is the last guy and it was A-Dubs.
That is f'king awesome. I am surprized the authorities have not shut that place down. Seems like every other cool place for doing fun shit has been since I was young. F'king sucks. I can't wait to move back north so I can go to places like that.
That bridge sign is absolutely correct. Before I read that it was 76 feet in the comments, I timed this guy's live-motion jump 14 times and averaged the middle 10 values, giving 2.2 seconds. Using h=1/2gt^2, that equals 77 feet. Using the free fall with air resistance formula for a 75 kg person, you get 76 feet on the nose!
The lake looks like a satellite image from that high.
The highest amateur jump I have found is a legitimate 110 feet. Search: "Devil's Diving Board." It is SICK.
naah not really just dont have enough time to sit making calculations on youtube. but if thats how you like to spend your free time, then fair game. and my names not mike, dickhead.
im from colchester and going back home this weekend. never been there but have heard a lot about the place. i really wanna go but dont know how to get there. i need directions. what would be the best way or a good landmark i would know to find it?
I am seriously thinking about going deep water soloing at red rocks ( rock climbing) I need to know if that cliff is easily accessable or if only the locals know how to get there
its at the very end of the trail in side the park and its goes off to a little path you can try askin around there but doubt they will want to tell u cause so many people get hurt every year
My son goes to UVM and I had heard about this cliff from him. I was a jumper in HS, but I'm 50 now. Anyways, I kept yacking about how I'd jump it if I ever went out there. Then I stood on the top looking down. Man, was I sorry I had run my big mouth! But there was no backing down or I'd NEVER hear the end of it. So I jumped. My wife tells me I need to have a life insurance policy if I ever want to try it again.
I did the 76r a few times while I was at UVM, it's super scary the first few times, but then I got more comfortable doing it. After I hit the water sideways that was it for me though...I climbed out of the water and my the skin on my side where I hit was cherry red and stung for the rest of the day, and my ribs were sore for like a week. Ouch!
I jumped the 76er twice when I was in H.S. Around 5 of us went there and all of us jumped it. I was surprised to find videos of it on Youtube, as I figured it wasn't all that well known.
Has anyone actually ever measured this with a tape measure? I know everyone just says it's 76 feet, because that is what is spray painted on the ledge.
There is a 65 foot jump at High Falls park in Chateaugay, NY. It requires climbing up the side of a bridge, so I haven't done it yet.
Red Rocks park South Burlington Vt. It is 76 feet. The water is plenty deep if you get out a little ways, dangerously shallow in close. I grew up here and my jump is in my profile.
As far as the water---be sure to "get out" with a good spring---it is plenty deep if you get out a little ways, but shallow in short. I watched the video---I wouldn't advise adjusting your foot, as one did, as you start your leap---keep your foot position stable, it's an awkward edge to be on compared to other jumps. Moving your foot at the last second can make you loose footing/traction and you could come up short.
yeah i live here and didnt get out far enough and hit the bottom. i didnt hit to hard though thankfully but yeah its like 8 feet deep then drop to like 60.
The best way to get distance is to put one foot in front, one back. Keep both feet still, but roll your lead foot over the edge as you exit and then push once your foot has rotated over and can push off the front surface of the edge. I've never hit bottom doing it that way, but one of my friends had 17 stiches in his foot from not springing out.
This is Redrocks Park in South Burlington. I grew up in this area and used to jump this all the time in high school. In the early 80's, I was the only person who jumped it, practically. Since then, Vermont has become a visitor destination and people and boats fill the lake, and I've seen many others do it in the past 15 years. I live in Colorado now, but when I visit each Summer, I always make this jump!! It's a rush!
How deep was the water? The 3rd guy gave me a good idea for the next time I jump: throw something small and then focus on it on the way down. The distance and speed messed with my head last time (was my first time ever).
