Skydivers fly through London's Tower Bridge – video

Marco Fürst and Marco Waltenspiel are the first people to successfully navigate a wingsuit flight through London's Tower Bridge

Seems rather low altitude to have any chance of opening a parachute with any success.

Seems rather low altitude to have any chance of opening a parachute with any success.

It's a wingsuit, so they're travelling forwards quickly, but not so much downwards.
Obviously, plenty downwards enough that it's a real risk and real achievement, but the forwards momentum would be more than enough to get the parachute to open properly

 

[BrokenWing]

I wasn't sure of the qualities of wings suits to produce lift, I couldn't watch that video at the time and the only ones I've seen before are going down mountains, so they're not really going up, they're just going down slower.

 

[Bada-Bing!]

Would love to try it though. Closest to feeling like Superman or even the Batman. .

So John Lewis have recalled the quality street themed Christmas decorations due to fears people may try to eat them and get injured...

That would mean whoever tried to eat it is the sort of person who'd try to eat a quality street in it's wrapper!

Absolutely moronic.

I should've added that I won't cover transport.

An example of a question would be (from a past paper) :
"A crocodile sees a zebra crossing a river. The crocodile chases the zebra, kills it and eats it. Describe the sensory and neurological pathways and mechanisms, from initial perception of the zebra to its digestion. Include details of relevant pathways, brain regions, divisions of the nervous system and neurotransmitters."


Really not feeling it at all =/

Sportscasters when interviewing winners and losers, just ask "how do you feel ?" They have so much to learn.

Cars... Got a new battery only last month and it's not starting again today.

 

[BrokenWing]

Alternator?

Do cars still have alternators?

Yeah think so dead battery can be an alternator fault.

 

[BrokenWing]

If the battery is new then it's probably a charging issue.

From my limited knowledge on cars could be a crap battery or like others have mentioned, the alternator. If your alternator is bad, it won't generate power for the car nor will it charge the battery but instead, draw power from the battery that will not be recharged by the functioning alternator. Kind of a vicious cycle

Did u start walking

That or the starter motor as the battery isn't completely dead like last time.

 

[BrokenWing]

Could be something totally unrelated then, a crappy coincidence.

How often do you drive your car and what are your typical journey mileage? It's brand new battery so it is weird it's conked out already.

I am barely using my motor now but still drive it at least once a week for 20 miles up the motorway to recharge the battery.

Neighbour left their Honda on our road for a year without budging it then couldn't start the damn thing and had to push it onto a removal lorry to probably be scrapped. Might as well replace the motor than get a new battery.

This doesn't fit into any "category" per se, but is a stunning photograph.

At least once a week and the last journey I did was from Gloucester to bath and back and then later Gloucester to Birmingham.
