Description

This is a four way jump composed of all Norwegians. Tore had 2000 skydives and 16 BASE jumps. It is said he never gained control all the way to impact. While this wall is seven seconds to impact it does have a sketchy launch point. A wing suited jumper earlier the same week achieved a flight of 89 seconds here.
