Some people are ready to go very far for thrills and cold sweats! Like Antti Pendikainen, who jumped from a hot-air-balloonwithout a parachute.
A new level of thrill-seeking
Welcome to Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates! It is there that the two base jumpers, Chris Douggs McDougall and Jimmy Pouchert went to test a giant human catapult! The machine flung them from 0 to 200 kilometres an hour in one second flat, at a height of 90 metres like real human missiles launched into the void.
Real daredevils
