By Coconuts Bangkok

BANGKOK: -- In case you missed it late last year, and if further proof was needed that man is not meant to fly, this video of a failed BASE jump from Baiyoke Tower is getting a lot of attention today after it was reshared online.

BASE jumper Espen Fadnes was attempting what was meant to be a straightforward 300-meter jump from the Baiyoke Tower to a narrow street when he veered off course.

This is what happens when you listen excessively to R. Kelly.

Are you not entertained!

LOL That made my day! Awesome, mate!

[pacovl46]

When the medic asked him if he's ok he should have said: This is SPAAAAAAAAARTAAAAAAA! :-)

[aboctok]

Nice how the ambo keeps things upbeat, with some hearty applause.

[klauskunkel]

he should sue Thailand for tarnishing his image

[falangjim]

That was entertaining! Parking your bum on a small soi is difficult.

This happened last year, why is it news now?

It's one thing risking your own life but this selfish <deleted!> idiot very nearly injured or even killed someone else doing this stunt. Then the egotistical sad case has the cheek to wave at the crowd. Just unbelievable.

I presume that you are having a bad day.

[jomcondo]

I bet they made him pay for the damage

[ChoakMyDee]

Why?

[SantiSuk]

Tend to agree with brither other. I have no sympathy for look-at-me to$$ers. I hope he was locked up for doing it in a populated public space.

No - I'm not having a bad day either!

Are you for real? They closed the road for this stunt! Plus, all eyes were on the guy!

Good for him. I like adventurers who are prepared to push boundaries and challenge norms. What a boring place the world would be if we only had footballers to keep us entertained!

For those who didn't see it first time round perhaps? Some of us have to work for a living.

These people are crazy. Could be a bad landing or even the shute fails ! Sorry would not do this if you paid me !
