leechio

Fail quality seems to be on the up :D

Dark

Definitely… Leech, do you still own this thing?

 
theb4ssm4n

tru, but more wins need to be designated. this one is totally Jesus FTW, fail on the base jumper’s part.

 
 
kloetzchen

Well … This is Felix Baumgartner, an Austrian (no kangaroos!) who is famous for basejumping of the Jesus statue in Rio de Janeiro.

Matt

Um… This is in
Chile… or are you refering to some Rio de Janerio in Chile that I’ve never heard of… despite going there…

Leg End

Ahh yeah, Austrians cant go to Chile…
Totally forgot about that.
Thanks for reminding me!

Matt

Rio de Janerio, or at least the one i know of, is not in Chile. DEE DE DEEE

Yeah

comprehension fail - he was saying what he’s famous for, not what he’s doing in the picture

 
 
 
nelandquinten

its in Rio de Janerio, Brazil, not Chile. But if you didnt know where Rio de Janerio was, you came pretty close to saying Brazil. Good job.

 
John

Matt, RIo de Janeiro = Brazil, Type Mount Corcovado on google! You just failed!

 
Thiago

FAIL!!!! youre joking, right… this is one of the wonders of the world. its in Rio De Janeiro in Brazil… lol

 
 
 
kloetzchen

An if you speak german … you can even read the better because longer Bio at http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Baumgartner

(including: “Am 7. Dezember 1999 morgens um 7:00 Uhr Ortszeit sprang er vom rechten Arm der Christusstatue auf dem Corcovado in Rio de Janeiro aus mit dem Fallschirm ab. Zuvor ließ er sich auf dem Gelände einschließen, dann kletterte er an einem mit einer Armbrust übergeschossenen Seil hinauf.”)

The guy is Felix Baumgartner and this is one of his more known stunts.

Clara

It’s still come major fail, if that’s what he calls a stunt.

kloetzchen

Well, it’s a base jump, and he is one of _the_ base jumpers in the world.
Also, this is not an original picture, it was clearly processed, because he jumped from th arm of the statue, not the hand.
Clara - just read some background before you make up your mind about something. This actually was a big win, because it earned him the world record for lowest base jump.

1999 “World record: lowest B.A.S.E. dive from the Christ Statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (95 feet).”

Lytrigian

It’s not a processed photo, just timed in a very opportune way. He’s not in fact stuck: he’s just begun the jump and his chute is still opening.

Photo source and story here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/549947.stm

 
 
 
 
Toris

Nope, it was not a fail, the way the picture was taken just suggests that. He did not get stuck and made the jump:

Dark

It looks that way though. Let people enjoy the photographer’s perfect sense of timing.

 
 
Toris

Nope, it was not a fail, the picture just suggests that. He did not get stuck and made the jump.

Search on Youtube for Video ID b-PsviSStA8, it has the whole jump on it.

 
damnedgamer

lol it looks awesome

 
Omega

Lol, it’s like the flying priest, ^^

 
 
strictlyhetero

Jesus said to his friends, “Hey John, hey Peter! Check out my new yoyo!”

 
Igor

É do Cristo Redentor, uma das 7 novas maravilhas do mundo, fica no Rio de Janeiro. A foto é “falsa”, o cara estava pulando e a foto foi tirada no momento do pulo, ele não ficou preso!
******************************************************************
It’s Cristo Redentor, one of the 7 new wonders of the world, is in Rio de Janeiro. The photo is “fake”, the guy was leaping and the picture was taken at the leap, he was not suspended!

 
Nikki

I wonder if he was scared? Then again, he should have been really comfortable up there…

 
fail failblog

OMG, two days and two fail failblog!

 
teresa lincoln

It really doesnt matter if this photo is a fake, the point is do you have faith; and if so are you convinced that JESUS saves?

 
 
BB

This is NOT a fail. He is in mid jump from the arm, not hung up on it.

 
Vaux

I’m probably going to Hell for this (not like there aren’t a bunch of other reasons), but the first caption idea that came to mind: “Who’s your Saviour? Whooo’s your Saviour? Tell me you love me. Now quack like a duck! Louder! I can’t hear you! Who’s the good duckie? You are!”

momly

:lol:

I’m right beside you, Vaux! Nice roomy handbasket, isnt’ it?

 
Dark

Haha, just great!

And don’t worry about the joke, everyone’s going to hell anyway.

It’s a ‘Where is your god now?’, surely…

 
what's my name? i forgot it

here’s a funny bible school joke:

a kid is constantly poking a girl in the back during sunday school one day. the teacher asks these questions, and she replies ironically.

teacher: who is the best?
girl (boy pokes her): oh my God!
teacher: who’s your Savior?
girl (boy pokes her): Jesus Christ!
teacher: what did eve say to adam after they’d had 28 children?
girl (boy pokes her especially hard in the back): if you stick that in me one more time, i’ll break it in half!

:lol:

dragonkitteh_leelee

this is probably one of the funniest things ive read all day.

Jesus saves the day once again. He’ll always be there for you when you’re down.

Hey I know….We can all ride the Failboat to hell!!!!!!
Good’n Vaux!

Dark

Well, if we do, then we will probably have some problems… maybe we’ll end up in the completely wrong place.

and then the Lord said, “My son, STOP EVERY SINGLE PARACHUTER THAT COME NEAR YOU!” and that’s how we found out God’s secret grudge.

madcow

God hates parachuters eh? Never woulda’ guessed.

We need to build more statues of Satan, just to confuse the fundies who like this picture.

 
ricky

I remember the parafailing incident in which a paraglider attempted to land on the Statue of Liberty’s torch, or on Liberty Island, and got his paraglider stuck on Lady Liberty’s torch. CLASSIC!

ricky

Google “Statue of Liberty Paraglider”.
