So you want to stop fly overs as well? What else you want to stop? It’s not like this man was forced to do this. It’s a choice. It’s exciting. Kids love it. It’s one tragic event. Owen Hart did same thing. The WWF kept the pay per view going. It’s a rarity. Don’t change things on rarities.

I’m guessing you never fly? Scared to crash. Why fly when you can bus right? O wait a bus accident. How do you even roll out of bed!

You def shouldn’t go to soccer games being someone could drive through the crowd.

This sounds just like Owen Hart. It’s making me uneasy thinking about what that guy was thinking as it was happening. Just sad and eerie.

Makes no sense

Same reason the Bills mafia jump on burning tables. It’s exciting and fun. He’s done that thousands of times. The man had a better chance of dying on his way to the game than that way.

If this guy has a tactical job in the military, they have to repell down ropes. This is no different than a training accident.

It’s the same with flyovers. If a jet crashes, you can say they shouldn’t do them, but all they’re doing is practicing formation flying and time-over-target. The risk are the same and the outcomes (operational experience and training) are the same.

Playing the sport. Part of the intrinsic dangers Guy repelling from the rafters of an arena just for ooohs and ahhhs, not at all related to the event. Let’s see if you can figure out the difference . Although, the moronic level of your thinking will make this tpugh for you Nothing, NOT ONE thing about sports is missed if guys dont repell down ropes and die before the game
excellent training and a good recruiting tool(except when things go wrong) most folks don’t know usaf has dudes like this…. They don’t end the blues or t birds when they have an accident….its deadly serious business

Yes, if one hits the building, absolutely. Or a piece of the olane falls off and kills a child, absolutely

Wierd how you keep trying to take other, inrelated spectacles, and tie them to a person slamming onto the turf, from the rafters

Parachutes, planes, other outside stuff, has the opportunity to diagnose any issue before affecting the inside of a stadium

quote:

I’m guessing you never fly?

20 yrs as pilot (non commercial) Pre flight checks and a TON of measures in emergencies. No clue how you relate this to a man reduced to broken bones and unimaginable trama, from repelling from the cieling. But moronically, feel free.

quote:

You def shouldn’t go to soccer games

Now youve reduced your arguement to me worried about violent criminal activity?

Your ignorance, and desperation, is unmatched.

Ill bet you a ban bet and $1000 that a man doesnt drop on a rope, from the rafters, at the next event in that stadium.

Why is that?

Really going out on a limb there huh.

Go read the training of rappelling and fast
roping. There are safeties in place for that. Planes crash from the sky on streets and in neighborhood. But I guess they need more safety!

Did you see the guy who parachuted in and broke his ankles landing to hard? They should never parachute again! You really put parachute in that part? lol

Who’s melting? Here you go. LINK

No more parachuting.

You are nothing more than result oriented. Once again you can not cater to rarities. In anything.

Conformed moron. Geez man. It’s rappel. And I believe everyone knows they won’t do this for a little while out of respect.

Never mind I just looked at some previous post of yours. You’re a troll and not even that good tbh. You probably don’t believe half the crap you say here. But you can tell you’re a mad keyboard person who misspells everything. How do you misspell stupid with stupud?

Actually are you a short bus rider?
