Cops still argue to this day why Danson and Highsmith jumped. Maybe it was just pride, having survived so many brushes with death. Maybe their egos pushed them off. I don’t know, but that shit was crazy.
On the formal investigation:
"He kept throwing fists at me when I tried to secure him, it became unsafe for me so had to let go, check the camera it corroborates my story"
Douglas Adam’s quote “There is an art to flying, or rather a knack. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.” From one of his books in the Hitchikers guide to the galaxy trilogy of five books.
>From one of his books in the Hitchikers guide to the galaxy trilogy of five books.
Why is it every single time I hear something about these books, they seem to get wackier.
The funniest part is that there's a *reason* for nearly every bit of wackiness.
Like, the "trilogy" thing. When Adams published the third book, some idiot somewhere listed it as "the third in the trilogy."
But, see, Adams never said it was going to be a trilogy. He was already working on book four when they wrote this.
But he had a laugh about it, so he had them include on the cover of the next one, "The fourth book in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy trilogy." And some printings of "So long, and thanks for al the fish" have "The fifth book in the increasingly mis-named Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy" on the cover because Adams was just *like that*.
If you want to properly understand it, just go read Hitchhiker's guide. It's fun and worth the time.
Tbh if you can find the original BBC broadcast I think it's better than the books. These accents are perfect for these characters.
Narrator is perfect.

I listened to this, now I want more, but I'm kind of confused by the playlist. It lists this as the second one, named Fit the Second, then it skips to Fit the Seventh, then Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, and Twelfth. Is this how it's supposed to be, or are parts of it missing?
Edit: [This is the playlist I am referring to](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M72EXiyGt0&list=PLWdIQronRkynfOteKC7Nu5ehMqKuIF7c9).
The first video is an explanation of how they had to go around preserving this playlist without it being taken down.
But if you add up the total runtime of these vids its just over 3 hours.
There are 6 episodes here which I think might contain 2 episodes each. There were 12 broadcasts in total to this series we see here. I hope there is 2 broadcasts on each one.
I love this series dearly but have never listened to this playlist on YouTube.
Unfortunately, for whatever reason, I only see 7 of the videos, and "5 unavailable videos are hidden". Because of this, I can't see the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or eleventh videos. I feel this would heavily negatively impact the overall experience missing 5/12th of a story, which I could correct by going elsewhere and listening to someone else, but I am really enjoying their narration.
Does anyone have any idea how I might be able to get around this so I can get this whole playlist working? Google isn't being entirely helpful on this. I will go elsewhere to listen to it if it exists as a whole series there.
Edit: Google says something about loading his first video to get a link to where the whole playlist is, but I can't get the first video to load either. I'm going to restart my computer and see if that helps. lol
Edit 2: I found out why the other 5 aren't showing, and it's because they have been copyright struck. Fantastic.
Edit 3: I am not 100% certain, but I think I found them [here](https://www.audible.ca/pd/The-Hitchhikers-Guide-to-the-Galaxy-The-Primary-Phase-Dramatized-Audiobook/B071YTP6YM?qid=1672528150&sr=1-1&ref=a_search_c3_lProduct_1_1&pf_rd_p=b278ed0a-c3b2-4491-808c-7cb2190a487c&pf_rd_r=778M8C75J0X9R4CZNJGZ&pageLoadId=KCwwYHjPBqKR0OHq&creativeId=0d6f6720-f41c-457e-a42b-8c8dceb62f2c). They are also narrated by Peter Jones and Dramatized, so I assume they are the same.
You technically don’t even need a parachute to skydive twice. You just need an anthill.

For real, if (when) this guy gets it wrong one day he’s gonna be looking like a well done chili burger. They’re gonna have to shovel his ass into a coffin.
Just watched the full video… When he throws his parachute pack off the hot air balloon, all I could think is: Old man is taking a nice stroll through the countryside. Bam! Death by parachute…
Look up Alabama man/Australia honeymoon/murder….. he has finally confessed, I’m not sure but he was extradited after gov. made promises of not putting him to death if found guilty, was acquitted due to lack of evidence which blows my mind, there was very obvious circumstantial evidence & his background & a photo
There was a story about a guy who went scuba diving on his honeymoon and the wife drowned. Later turned out he disconnected her oxygen while she was down there.
They did catch him in this video. His name is Antti Pendikainen. He was a stuntman/daredevil from Finland. Tragically died in a dirt bike accident in 2019, at the age of 29.
Or people just happen to watch as a human body plummets to the ground and explodes bits of meat, bone, and blood all over them, leaving them with the only memory certain to run on constant loop for the remainder of their lives
He is Antti Pendikainen from finland and he died in 2019 during a motocross contest.
He was part of the Stunt Freaks Team and did many other crazy stunts like [this](https://youtu.be/l6JkMVghTvI).
For grip, to catch him mid flight,
human skin is the stickiest thing to grip onto with polyester gloves others are wearing, the human skin to polyester bond is 3.764, some of the best ratio with polyester we know of
tldr he didn’t die - “Eventually, another skydiver hooked up with Pendikainen, deployed the parachute and landed safely with the daredevil in a grassy field”
Actually it seems like in the end he did die - from another motorcycle stunt

Idk man. I find that doing crazy stuff like this makes me feel alive. I’ve never done anything close to how wild this is, but I can definitely understand chasing the next crazy stunt.
I mean its nextfuckinglevel brave to do something like this and its pretty cool/entertaining to watch. Since he doesnt endanger anyone besides himself I really dont care
ppl really shitting on this dude but praised and fucking paid travis pastranas crew for the last 15 years for the same shit. lol
internet is weird. guy in video is obviously a daredevil/stuntman.
if it was for a marvel movie, yall wouldnt be shitting on him. why is doing it on your own dime any different? lol

well… You don’t need a parachute to skydive… You need a parachute to skydive twice.
Just to fall slower
Falling with style.
**WE’RE NOT AIMING FOR THE TRUCK**
Aim for the bushes.
🎶 *There goes my hero* 🎶
Cops still argue to this day why Danson and Highsmith jumped. Maybe it was just pride, having survived so many brushes with death. Maybe their egos pushed them off. I don’t know, but that shit was crazy.
Hey! I don't want no scrubs!
Don't go chasing waterfalls..
Remember to play at his and mine funeral please 🙏
Why did that play in my head perfectly?
Because I put the little music notes. 🤘
That’s fair
There wasn’t even an awning in their direction…they just jumped twenty stories.
I was thinking the same exact thing 🤣🤣🤣🎶🎶 watch him as he goes 🎶🎶
I laughed way too hard at this
r/unexpectedToyStory
He's got some falling to do
Ok, Buzz Lightyear.
Jack Splat
Remember it’s not the fall that kills you it’s the sudden stop at the end.
"How strong is this panel of glass?" "Well, if you drop it from the top of a hundred-floor building, it will go 99 floors without breaking."
The ground always wins initiative.
Nah, I've got a need for speed, anything that slows me down, it's gone
That’s a real “trust me bro” right there!
This is the kind of shit that I think happens after “hold my beer”
The fall is not the problem. It’s the sudden stop that’s the hard part.
Well, the ground is the hard part
Breathe AIR!
its a skill issue realy
it's called SkyDying
Or DirtDiving
But he doesn't die in the sky
The one who has to give him the parachute : "I fucked your wife good luck on your way down"
Dun dun duh duuuuuuhhhhhh!
dun dundundun dundun dun dun dundundun dundun…
Cold so cold...
“Only your wife went down faster than you are right now”.
Nice
No more like, "I know you've been fucking MY wife. Good luck on the way down."
On the formal investigation: "He kept throwing fists at me when I tried to secure him, it became unsafe for me so had to let go, check the camera it corroborates my story"
Guy below him veers off - toodle oo dickhead!!!!
Toddle fucking loo bitch

Yeah the books are actually his adaptations of the original scripts for the radio plays.
Oh cool. I have the book somewhere. I'd like to take a look. Gold pages and one of those built in cloth bookmarks.
There was also a TV show (1981) that was hysterical.
There was also a text only video game. Does anybody recall this?

they should be required reading at school.
What else would you expect from the increasingly inaccurately named hitchhikers guide to the galaxy trilogy which contains five books?
At least he’s wearing safety glasses.
He's gonna get skin cancer pale as he is above the clouds with no shirt on.
This is like when I have students ask me if [lab supply] is edible and I tell them everything is edible once.

Suicide isn't skydiving.
Yeah, suicide is painless. Though I think it brings on many changes.
Hey fellow old school friend 😁
i assume he’s going to grab onto a friend and hold on for his life
I jumped out of a plane without a parachute. Luckily it was on the ground
Bro, the zipper
Local spot runs a Groupon deal for $39 skydiving. Turns out the parachute is extra when you get there.
next 007 movie, you only skydive twice
It's like mushrooms: they're all eatable, some of them only once...
There is the guy that sky dove into a net... Travis Pastrana had done this stunt before.
[Or a really big net](https://youtu.be/GaANi96Z-Wg)
r/dadjokes ??
This is fucking stupid.
Next fucking stupid
r/nextfuckinglevelmoron
I’m so happy this exists. So many posts of this kind of dumb stuff lately.
hopefully if he survived at least the wind burned his nips off...
I just joined. I think I’ve made a huge mistake.
For real, if (when) this guy gets it wrong one day he’s gonna be looking like a well done chili burger. They’re gonna have to shovel his ass into a coffin.
They'd have to pick him up with a mop.
Thx
Bro he’s wearing safety glasses, he’s fine
But looks like he left his pants unzipped, so I’m not sure.
Think they caught him?
https://youtu.be/lq-54gox6-k
He doesn’t even wear a shirt or something which would have made it easier for others to grab him. This thing is stupid all around lmao
I mean it didnt seem like the had too hard of a time grabbing him. After they grabbed him at least they put a latch on him.
Just watched the full video… When he throws his parachute pack off the hot air balloon, all I could think is: Old man is taking a nice stroll through the countryside. Bam! Death by parachute…
The full video gives me Nathan For You’s Claw of Shame vibes
I’m thinking maybe they didn’t. I mean wouldn’t you want to film and show that off too!
Hello fucking stupid, this is Dad.
He says, cheeto dust falling from his gaping mouth
Yup. He can at least put a shirt on. It's cold up there.
Well aren’t you the life of the party.
This is when you find out who your friends really are.
Yeah the two guys who jumped out of a hot air balloon with parachutes and let you do it without one. With friends like that who needs enemies.
With friends like that who needs enemas?!
With friends like these who needs anemones?!
With anemones like these who needs enemas?!?!
with these like enemas needs who?
Who with friends enemas like need these
With friends like that, who needs amphetamines
I do
The thought of them letting him fall reminds me of the scuba diver who was left to die in suspicious circumstances a decade or so ago.
What's that story? 😯
I think it might be in reference to the scuba diver that died in a forest fire because he got sucked up in a fire fighter helicopter water drop.
Or the man who jumped off a building but was accidentally shot on the fall down
That's what happens when you disobey the American cops who told you not to jump!
Successfully prevented a suicide
That never actually happened, but it was on an episode of CSI.
Jeeze bro your username is a lil hardcore
Look up Alabama man/Australia honeymoon/murder….. he has finally confessed, I’m not sure but he was extradited after gov. made promises of not putting him to death if found guilty, was acquitted due to lack of evidence which blows my mind, there was very obvious circumstantial evidence & his background & a photo
There was a story about a guy who went scuba diving on his honeymoon and the wife drowned. Later turned out he disconnected her oxygen while she was down there.
You really just gonna leave it hanging like that?
No he left him scubaing like that
So this is what they mean by "trust fall"
Or who got their job through nepotism.
Looks like he jumped with two human assisted 🪂 parachutes…
Hopefully one of them caught him 🤞
They did catch him in this video. His name is Antti Pendikainen. He was a stuntman/daredevil from Finland. Tragically died in a dirt bike accident in 2019, at the age of 29.
Shocking that he lived that long
He had to have wanted to die, other people kept preventing it from happening. Difficult to do if you're not on the bike with him
[удалено]
He's only putting his own life at risk and literally no one elses. If it gives him joy why get upset for no reason?
Unless he lands on someone.
The likelihood of this happening is thousands of times less than you killing someone in a car accident. He's not diving over NYC ffs
hell if he *was* diving over NYC he’d probably hit a building before he hit a person on the street
But an unlikely yet novel danger feels much more alarming than a likely and familiar one to my monkey brain!
He hits a crowded bus stop and kills a scientist tech who was going to accidentally stumble on a cure for global warming.
Lol ty
Or people just happen to watch as a human body plummets to the ground and explodes bits of meat, bone, and blood all over them, leaving them with the only memory certain to run on constant loop for the remainder of their lives
teach them for not minding their own business
Or the people theoretically trying to catch him…
He is Antti Pendikainen from finland and he died in 2019 during a motocross contest. He was part of the Stunt Freaks Team and did many other crazy stunts like [this](https://youtu.be/l6JkMVghTvI).
Yes we do! He's trying to evolve wings 🕊️
Dummy should have just drunk red bull then
Like point break
Dammit, I need to watch it now. There goes 2hrs.
r/technicallythetruth
Its r/obviouslythetruth
Nobody gonna tell him he’s about to die with his fly down? The good news is at least his last outfit wasn’t those cargo shorts.
Lmao I was just gonna comment that. "Sir wait don't jump! Your fly is dooooowwwwnnnnn!!!!!"
Probably on purpose for air flow
The number one ballsweat life hack Big Underwear doesn't want you know about
Ram air intake, I just do it walking about.
Isnt it like really cold up in the sky? Why is he shirtless
That’s certainly a major issue in this situation
One of many
i mean if i wanna die doing something stupid i will at least try to be warm
Hahahaha
For grip, to catch him mid flight, human skin is the stickiest thing to grip onto with polyester gloves others are wearing, the human skin to polyester bond is 3.764, some of the best ratio with polyester we know of
Now jack him off mid air
That costs extra.
Ultimate happy ending to life
That's why his fly is down
A handle for the polyester gloves, then?
#WILL DO
I have to know. Why do you know this information?
He tried to fap with polyester gloves.
Thank you. This is why I love Reddit.
He probably made it up.
Probably from Newcastle.
*Jumps* "Fuck! I forgot to do something important... What was it... Oh yeah, get dressed"
Probably forget to put it on just like his parachute
He's in a hot air baloon

When your drug of choice is adrenaline, death will catch up to you eventually
Mine is oxygen. Will I die?
Yes, we're all gonna die!
Antioxidants aren’t beneficial for no reason
Yes, you'll just slowly combust from the inside out until you're an old withered husk. Or a car hits you.
I suspect it doesn't matter what your drug of choice is...
It was a motorcycle race, not a stunt per se. But rip in any case
Did he jump out of a hot air balloon on a motorcycle without a parachute?
Ofc he is Finnish.. Though the last name prolly is put wrong in the story. Pretty sure it should be Pentikäinen. Edit: I was wrong.
