What has the world come to - are our lives so comfortably dull that we have to point and decry anyone who takes a few risks?
We don't know how well thought out this was - it could range from suicidally stupid to really quite mundane, depending on the experience of said chappie, and his planning and forethought.
In any case, I'm sure that the tax dollars we pay (for example) into healthcare for the afflicted idiots who smoke themselves into an early grave are far more than those inflicted on us by the few who get up to this sort of thing - I reckon we get far more value for money out of the nutters than the smokers
On a related, I have heard legend of gliders doing touch'n'goes on a ridgetop field - dive in on the spoilers, touch, close spoilers, and float off the end into the ridge lift, climb out, rinse and repeat.
(P.S. You wouldn't catch me doing it mind you....)
