Travis Pastrana Skydives WITHOUT a parachute

By Gary King on 08 March 2010 14:59:56

So what he's basically doing here is jumping out of the plane without a parachute, having a bit of a fly around and then being strapped into a tandem rig with another skydiver. Technically there are many skydivers who could do this as it's basically about manoeuvrability in the sky. But you're putting a lot of faith in a lot of people. Bonkers. Truly bonkers.
