For those that didn’t watch the making of this jump concept he uses a laser guided system in his helmet to double check his trajectory. Also his team created that V around him which made sure he was aligned before they pulled chutes. An absolute marvel of strategy and skill. 🔥
I have really puzzled over that. Anybody who jumps know how tricky spotting even from 10K' ft. can be. Even with GPS, winds aloft and side slippage could still have one miss a bulls-eye by 100'. From 25K', it seemed near impossible without a square parachute to get you back. Triangulation using a laser explains it.
Looks to me like he had an emergency chute on his stomach. But the fact that he didn't pull the chord on the chute took incredible courage. I'm impressed.
I remember watching this live when it happened.. I absolutely cannot believe that this wasn’t more widely publicized or talked about than it was.. blows my mind. This has got to be the craziest “stunt” I’ve ever seen and I doubt anyone else is going to top this!!!
@@sebastianperales3630 I’m going to be honest with you, I’ve watched Felix Baumgartner’s jump from space quite a few times.. and it still amazes the hell out of me!!

Anybody who has ever jumped will tell you that not only is this incredibly difficult but really blows away what Blaine did.

Waiting, hoping.. that nothing could have went awry in between the moment you turned around and the moment your fate is decided. At any point in time within the next 5 seconds, you’ll either be feeling your spine and skull crash into concrete for the next 0.3 seconds or absolute accomplishment for the rest of your life.

He already knew he would be in the net before flipping. I imagine jumping out of the plane without a rig would be more challenging, because after that your committed and your mind is 100% on navigating.
Yes 👍 but I was horrified when I realized that underneath the net was just the ground 😬 I'd want the net, then a foam pit, then water, then jello, then another net!
while there are many many TH-cam videos displaying incredible amounts of courage, confidence and carelessness, Luke Atkins is King... albeit there's a staggering number of completely insane wingsuit and base jumping vids, Isle of Man TT vids, crazy mofos up 17000 feet in paramotors, or strapped to jetpacks flying next to 747s, homeboy jumping from 25,000 ft with no parachute into a net is the winner
Joe Rogan and David Blaine brought me and many others here. This is Amazing and absolutely insane, talk about courage and focus and skills. This should be so viral but yet its not. Awesome! Love people like Aikins and Blaine and Rogan! The world is so much cooler with them in it.
Same, he said he was on flight with a guy who jumped out at 25,000 without a parachute I had to see this, is really that easy to maneuver when free falling?
Most life insurance company's wont insure a person with any history of skydiving. Its best to lie about skydiving if you know your done with the sport. But if your still active in the sport, don't lie, they can deny payment and keep premiums.
Me!! Lol go ahead and laugh at me, I actually thought in my mind that this guy contorted his body in some way or did a roll in order to survive hitting the ground. I didn’t think he had a safety net LOL!! I was like, a net, OH. Too early for me hahahah
You people have no idea how intense this had to be for him. I used to skydive. Normally, you deploy your chute around 2,500 to 2,000 feet above ground. Now I have, on one occasion and one occasion only, opened my chute at 1,000 feet. First off, you are falling terminal velocity at 200 feet per second. And the ground rush you get at 1,000 feet is unsettling to say the least. I've experienced it and yet I can't imagine what he was experiencing that last thousand feet. To overcome that to hit the net...BALLS!
It's happened before. During a group stunt jump one guys canopy wouldn't deploy and he made a huge thud right into the bridge close to where people were watching.
@@xDreadheadx IIRC Luke said (during David Blaine's recent balloon stunt) that about half the people he knew in skydiving had died, and I was like "wait, what the actual fuck? so much for reassuring us that skydiving is generally safe".
I’m sure it’s because his audible altimeter is in there not to mention other things can happen in air (hit by one of the other jumpers) as well as there could’ve been impact from the net.
Ive never seen a more insecure comment section on TH-cam, every guy here feeling their balls shrink cause of this guy chasing his adrenaline hit! "I could've done that." "he's so stupid for risking his life like that!" And "I wish he didn't hit the net." Are what you'll see most in this section and they all scream the same "I feel so inferior to this guy I need to berate him for it!"
Yeah some horribly disconnected and sad people here. Bet it’s the same ones that shove “equality, love and acceptance” into everyone’s faces! Then go on yt and say they wish they watched someone die. This man is just doing his thing! Don’t be jealous you don’t have a thing little baby, go find it.
@@shanedelgado666 I don't doubt that at all, it would be hard, it's just stupid how the adrenaline hit the commentators mind to say that with such confidence especially Infront of a live crowd considering how close he was to missing it, the whole stunt was an all round dumb idea that could have impacted the lives of many to see him splat on the ground

For those that didn’t watch the making of this jump concept he uses a laser guided system in his helmet to double check his trajectory. Also his team created that V around him which made sure he was aligned before they pulled chutes. An absolute marvel of strategy and skill. 🔥
And he caught a corner, cause it wasn't dead center...

Missing the net
spot on i been there dont recomend it at all its life changing...
@Tron Jockey Or Marty Funkhauser may he rest in pieces
When I was 19 years old, I did a backflip off the diving board into the pool. So I can totally relate.
This definitely gave me high dive vibes 😂
Genuinely surprised that the landing net could cushion the weight of his steel balls. Respect!

Not close enough IMO!

The algorithm has brought us together for this 6 year old video
That it has.
Indeed
"History made as he hugs his wife" - I thought the landing in a net was more remarkable personally..😂
Hitting the net from that height was the most impressive part for me, or the grace of not losing his breakfast from one end or the other… 😁
This history in this instance was referring to the first female to be within proximity to those giant balls of his after the jump!
"We need to wait for our medical staff to check him out and give us the official OK."
*medic high fives Luke and walks away*
Seems pretty official to me.
He didn't land in the center at all that's pretty scary actually.
He said he knew he was over it and didn't give a shit so he just flipped cause he needed to land in his back

Literally anyone could do a 25,000ft skydive without a parachute.

I guess in his mind he was accepting the possibility that he might die.
Six year old video, but all the comments are from the last 4 hours... hello fellow victims of the algorithm , we meet again.
lol....yes we do!
I was just saying the same thing...Where are the old comments? Did the uploader just enable them? Weird.
where we dropping bois

Tell me more of your algorithmic observations, 4 year cycles and greeting as a farewell and see you again. Curious.
I was hoping this was a trampoline bouncing the dude 20,000 feet back in the air.
Then we need that on our drop zone... 😆👍
We all know he made it safe yet I still get nervous af when I watch this.
Incredible.
The "medical ok" is just a high five. Brilliant.
The entire jump would be insane but that last bit after u turn over and can't see the net has to be the most intense feeling ever

3:01 most rigorous medical check i've ever seen
The medic team will just check on him. *gives high five* "Yep seems good"
I bet jumping without the net there is a once in a lifetime experience
This guy landed this simply because they put a huge magnet under the net that attracted his massively gigantic balls of steel
*#lolz*
Hahahaha ikr
whose here from a tiktok and didn’t want to wait for part 2

What did he jump from?
If he missed that net he would have broken another record, first man to be exhumed before being laid to rest
Through the years I've found much easier ways to impress my wife.
That final flip has to be absolutely insane mentally
He already knew he would be in the net before flipping. I imagine jumping out of the plane without a rig would be more challenging, because after that your committed and your mind is 100% on navigating.
That final flip was perfectly sane, wise and planned. What would have been insane would be to go in face-first.

I like how being checked out by medical staff means a massive high-five.
