Somewhere over the Mohave desert in
California in June 2001 a stuntman named Dave Barlia sat in a helicopter,
hovering at 10,000 feet, with 1,800 feet of bungee cord strapped to himself.
Dave Barlia was not there for the view, he was there to perform a stunt for
Ripley's: Believe It or Not, so he jumped.....and fell.....and fell.
When the bungee cord finally reached it's maximum stretching point Dave
Barlia had fallen about 6,000 feet setting the record for the world's longest
bungee jump.
