Extreme base jump, tell me about it.

Extreme skydiving is a very dangerous and exciting sport, which is mainly carried out in helicopters, tall buildings or cliffs. Its danger mainly comes from the fact that the challenger does not open the parachute as soon as he leaves the original platform, but opens the parachute for buffering after a period of free fall. It depends entirely on the adventurer's prediction of the ground distance, and whether the parachute opens at the right time is completely controlled by him, so it is extremely dangerous and exciting.

First of all, there is only one parachute. The biggest difference between extreme challenge and traditional challenge is that traditional parachutists will have two umbrellas, one is the main umbrella and the other is the backup umbrella, which has certain space and safety guarantee. Extreme skydiving only takes an umbrella, and there is no other possibility of success or failure. Because only one umbrella is brought, opening and folding umbrellas in extreme sports require higher skills and stability. Or you'll die if you don't succeed.

Second, the challenge is more of a basic jump. Because of challenging the limit, paratroopers will be more inclined to open their parachutes and land at a lower altitude. Different from traditional parachuting, extreme parachutists don't carry landing correction sticks, so it is very important for extreme challengers to open parachutes, which requires accurate and quick judgment. The number of people who challenge the base jump every year is extremely high, because the opening height, wind speed, speed and landing environment can often be judged in just a few seconds. All challengers must start from basic skydiving and truly master traditional skydiving in order to challenge extreme skydiving. In recent years, due to the extremely high mortality rate of this project, many countries and scenic spots have clearly issued regulations that do not allow extreme skydiving. On the one hand, there are casualties, on the other hand, the search and rescue work is too difficult and heavy, which requires a lot of resources and manpower, especially in valleys and canyons or places of interest.

Despite the dangers, the rapid free fall of tens of seconds or the short floating in the air still attracts many people who are eager to challenge at the risk of their lives, and so far, there are more challengers mainly in Europe and America.
