This is a 700 meter zip line rigged with 5mm dyneema and it ends in the boulder field. You can't change your mind once you go. We glamorize it and we make it look easier to set up than it really was in this episode. Please don’t try these things on your own!
Our results:
The MBS of spliced 5mm amsteel is 19kn
Peak force when Ari ziplined was 3.89kn

Idk who Andy is but it was very obvious he is the mentor, guide, and confidence builder in the other basejumpers. Cool to see someone instill confidence in others like that.

OMG I did not know this was possible. To run a zipline over 2000 feet. Absolutely amazing. To know that you people exist, is so inspiring! The pure joy...of flying, and the precision and integrity used to create this installation, brilliant.

I was really hyped to watch this show...First episode was kind of a bummer with all the fast cutting montages but I'm guessing the second episode will start showing more stuff going on...I like how they're already building the drama with the "rig master" Ryan bitching lol..That was great.

You can tell this when you compare his landings with spencers one. Andy is an experienced paraglider whilst spencer seems to have skipped that part, but i really do appreciate andys attitude and vibe towards the sport!

I’ve built some epic zip lines in the past, but without hesitation I would say that you guys have created the worlds most spectacular line of all time. I don’t know if anyone keeps records on the longest or highest line ever built but I’d bet it doesn’t come close to yours. I’m curious if you did any research or tests on riding the line all the way down and maybe using a modified parachute as a brake to control the descent speed on the line and as a safety if you left the line or it parted at some point? I know the safety concerns would be astronomical the closer the rider got to the ground. Still, on the principle that you never go 1st, a video of a weighted gear bag and drogue chute riding the line would have been awesome to see.

i know here in my country in wales / Uk we have Velocity 2 its 1.5 kilometre zip line where you hit over 100mph on a decline of 20 degrees think its the worlds fastest zipline and think there is 1 or 2 longer one somewhere but not as fast

I'd most likely be too scared tio try this too, however... I feel like I would be 10 times more likely to try this than the rope jumps you do from the high lines. That just looks terrifying, this at least looks like a blast, and something that I could probably be talked into.

Did you find a benefit to having the handle so far below the pulley? Wondering if that made for more of a shock when dropping off the rock? I used to rig ziplines across rivers and flip off into the water, obviously not the same as this epicness!

You have to hold on or you die? Did I miss any safety backup, especially when you hang from one hand and you the other to pull the parachute? Thank you so much, this was an incredible episode!

@sweepingdenver 3 жыл бұрын

Well you don't really die as long as the chute is good. If you hold on to the end of the zipline you die anyway, so the last thing you want is something that might cause you to be stuck to the line. Clearly everyone doing this has exceptionally good upper body strength.

@jerome1lm 3 жыл бұрын

@dabj9546 3 жыл бұрын

Well yeah for one second... Also these kinds people are usually climbers and could probably hold on ten times longer than they need to.

@Cheesus-Sliced Жыл бұрын

No no, you die if you don't let go in time. You're building up massive speed and hurtling towards rocks, and need to let go and use the parachute to slow down or you'll hit the rocks and slow down very quickly
