Jump! “I saw the most awesome film last week at the Denver Film Festival. It was called "Jump". Basically it was about various folks in Czechoslovakia who participate in this exterme sport called jumping. These people climb to the top of rocky crags and jump from crag to crag while hundreds of feet up. I have never seen anything like it! Anyone in the states participate in this sport? According to the producer of jump, there is only 1 known jump in the US and it is at the Garden of the Gods here in CO. I think it would be cool to try. The bummer about this movie is that they don't anticipate it being released in the US. Too bad. I bet if it was released, the idea might catch.” 10:17:20 AM 10/25/01 RE: Jump! “Damn! I thought this thread was about sensible people yelling to Radagast and Bacpac as they (Beavis and Butthead) stand at the edge of the Grand Canyon.” 2:32:07 PM 10/25/01 RE: Jump! “I could have thought the same ting about you Spock, but then I realized the thread would read "PUSH!"” 10:06:40 AM 10/26/01 RE: Jump! “PUSH! That's how I get sh!t like you and Rad out of my system.” 2:50:30 PM 10/26/01 RE: Jump! “Spock, does your old lady get mad when you call her the Grand Canyon?” 4:26:06 PM 10/26/01 RE: Jump! “Mtnchick, that sounds like a pretty cool flick. I like foriegn films. As far as doing that, not a chance in hell.” 4:56:12 PM 10/26/01 RE: Jump! “Mountainchick, I think there was a similar club in the States a few years back...but all the idiots died. Just kidding...why would you want to do that? A mis-step or slip, and your life is forever changed...for the worst. Rock climbing and parachuting etc., I can understand...there's still protection.” 11:58:00 PM 10/27/01 RE: Jump! “Hey Stanlee. In the movie the jumpers were tied into and the person on the other tower was also the belayer. Yeah, it looks pretty dangerous and I'm not so sure I would get hooked on something like that but I WOULD try it once on an easy jump, maybe. . .Hell, I don't know.” 10:36:18 AM 10/29/01 RE: Jump! “That would leave a mark. I don't need any more marks. The film would be cool.” 10:45:08 AM 10/29/01 RE: Jump! “Why is Van Halen running through my head now?!?” 10:50:37 AM 10/29/01 RE: Jump! “Thanks for the heads-up MtnChick. You didn't mention they were tied up in your previous post....so it's almost like bungee jumping, only they get to hit the cliffs if they miss a jump. hee hee” 9:33:48 PM 10/29/01 RE: Jump! “BaSO4, when you speak of women and Grand Canyon in the same sentence, yer referring to black or white women. Mine is neither.” 2:47:52 PM 10/30/01 10:50:48 AM 2/02/06
