(Copied from Planet Calypso Forum as it may be of interest to NI folks) Short of PED and need something eco to do? Enjoy exploring or using the environment in new ways? Get your name up there with other high fliers in the Entropia BASE Jumping League! Rules: You can jump off any BASE object (buildings, antennae, spans (bridge), and earth (cliff). Running jumps are fine. You need to provide two screenshots with coordinates (default key: P). Take your first screenshot at the top of the jump, and the second when you come to a stop at the bottom. The height measurements on your coordinates can be used to determine the total height of the jump (start height minus end height) Once you leap from the top, you must come to a natural stop (i.e. no keyboard/mouse control). The drop does not need to be fully airborne (i.e. sliding/bouncing off the cliff/building is fine, as long as you don't touch the keyboard or mouse). Vehicles may be used to reach the jump, but obviously jumping out of a VTOL/helicopter won't count ;) Any planet is ok. Any jump can be challenged and checked by any player if it looks suspicious of course. No prizes planned, although you may like to display a banner (see linked post) for any league class for which you qualify in your sig block. Better as an open-ended event I think. In the absence of a forum for EU as a whole (and so I still have time left to play :p), I'll just maintain the one list on PCF (here), so please post your jumps there. It would be awesome to see a jump from Ancient Greece (even if it only has Chirpy-class heights) :D Happy leaping! Ajax
Would be nice to see some people make vids of their jumps (or the jumps of others) and create an ongoing web project about this particular activity.
Here's mine, Did it a couple days ago. Highest on NI at 592m. Second highest so far. [video=youtube;J3D2imUcRXM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3D2imUcRXM[/video]
Your health is higher then mine :( Wish they have some realistic falling, instead of just standing there.
