Crazy People Base Jumping Off Wind Turbines
July 29, 2008 · Print This Article
Base jumping off wind turbines – I guess it was bound to happen. While some people might think this is totally awesome – dare I say, rad – it makes me want to cling to the ground for dear life. The idea of standing on the top of a wind turbine is enough to squeeze my stomach into painful little knots, let alone the idea of actually jumping off one.
That, my friends, takes some serious balls!
