High Diving with Air Bag

On 7 August 1997, Stig Günther of Denmark, made a fall of 104.5 m (342 ft) off a crane onto an air bag measuring 12 x 15 x 4.5 m. His impact speed was about 145 km/h (90 mph). It took a few years to design and make the bag which cost around £13,500 and was made in a parachute factory. He scouted around 20 buildings in order to find a place to jump from including La Defence Arch in Paris. When he approached a crane company a second time they finally agreed to help him.
