In future news, Travis Pastrana is dead

I totally stole that joke from a Jimmy Fallon Weekend Update joke a few years back, but it's fitting. Earlier this month Travis Pastrana flew to Puerto Rico to jump out of a plane from 12,500 feet. Oh, and he wasn't wearing a parachute.
four members of his group skydived from a single-engine Cessna from 12,500 feet. Pastrana performed his jump wearing only sunglasses, socks and surf trunks while holding a can of Red Bull.

He was not wearing a parachute.


WTF!! It's not even like he and his buddies got shitfaced on absenthe and cocaine and got a hair up their ass and decided to give it a shot. No, this crazy m-fer has been planning it for an entire year!! He actually thought about it for a year and then still decided it was a good idea, plus managed to convince 3 more experienced jumpers(oh yeah, did I forget to mention that Pastrana only has a beginner skydiver rating and only about 100 jumps under his belt) to save his life. By the time he jumped, he'd known the other jumpers for less than a week.

So to recap, Travis Pastrana is fucking crazy!
