BASE jumping is a highly dangerous sport that can severely injure and kill participants. It may kill you. The moderators of BLiNC do not recommend BASE jumping to anybody!

Read the BASE fatality list and the Fatality Statistics page and think long and hard before making a BASE jump.

@see Wiki category Problems to learn about how to handle issues that can occur while BASE Jumping.

    A basejumper has died after leaping off the top of a waterfall in north Queensland.

    Police said they received a call that a man had died after attempting a base jump from Wallaman Falls, near Ingham.

    Wallaman Falls is the largest single drop waterfall in Australia, tumbling 305 metres through the Wet Tropics World Heritage area.

    Attempts are being made to recover the man's body.

    Second incident

    Meanwhile rescue workers are also trying to rescue a man from a mountain in south-east Queensland after another apparent basejumping accident.

    A 21-year-old became trapped on the western side of Sugarloaf Mountain, near Boonah, amid windy conditions.

    The next Aussie to go in is your daddy.
    I know you think you know who he is, but here's a tip, the next Aussie that goes in is your real father.
    You feel like Luke Skywalker right now don't you?
