Tuesday Top Ten: Most Death-Defying Stunts
I
had planned out an elaborate Tuesday Top Ten, full of twists, turns, and even a
little ribaldry, but then I came across this
article that lists the top ten most death-defying stunts. This is just too damn timely to pass up, in light of
Felix Baumgartner's leap from 128,000 feet Saturday. I watched it live, thinking the entire time
that was the dumbest and most insane thing I've ever seen a human being do –-
and I was in a fraternity, for Christ's sake.
All's well that ends well, though, since Baumgartner didn't plummet to
his death, pass out, or explode with millions of people watching. (Click
here to see a recap of the jump and click
here to watch the full jump.) The
list compiled in the article is a pretty good one, with a Wallenda, a couple
Knievals, and a Houdini (the guy, not the sex move).
