Entertainment & Music Jeb Corliss

[Changaneen]

Very interesting individual. Watched a segment about him on sunday night. Apparently born with a syndrome that has him a desire to confront fear. Probably a large dose of ADD.

He came unstuck not so long ago and nearly killed himself, i dare say it wont be long until it happens.

Crank the volume up on this clip.

Holy shit that's awesome

This guys a ****in twat. One of those faces you just want to punch, even moreso when he opens his mouth. Sunday Night interview was cringeworthy, he was on TV again last night telling us a sob story about his childhood and somehow that may explain why he's such a spanner today. One of those tossers that just has to be different.

The guy has balls the size of coconuts to do the stuff he does but still comes across as a bit of a tool.

Was quite funny with that show last night where he was trying to jump off the Empire State building and the security guys grabbed him and handcuffed him to the fence while he was bitching at them to let him go.

When he went through a couple of areas when he was just a few feet off the ground there is no way you can calculate that, just seems stupid to me.

But he pulled it off & it looked crazy but I'd say his risk taking will catch up with him sooner or later.

Love BASE jumping, been following Jeb since watching this:

(obviously poor picture quality because of its age)

[The Big Sticks]

Didn't one of his mates die when doing this?

****ing stupid.

 

[camsmith]

If you BASE jump you are going to lose plenty of mates...

 

[wce4premiership]

May be a tosser, but you can't deny it's fascinating stuff and he has a lot of courage.

He really is pushing the limits, there will always be people doing that, wether it be academically or physically, don't hate him for it.

 

[kBuck]

I'm assuming this is the video where he > hits the rock <

That shit is so, unbelievably, crazy.

 

[Simple Jack]

I bet that would be awesome to do. Might crap yourself when you get close to the ground in some places but still...

Ease up mate, jesus

He's a showman, good at what he does. He's not hurting anyone bar himself. Why the hate ? Yea he's got a big head, but deservedly so. Have you got small man syndrome ? Without people like him the world would be a bloody boring place. Cut some slack.

So, what do you do with your life? Work in a cubicle, punch in at 9, punch out at 5? Live in a 3 bed/2 bath brick veneer in the suburbs?

You mightn't like the guy as an individual, but it's his life. And while he might die young, he'll have experienced a whole lot more than most people on this Earth, while giving the rest of us a taste with his helmet cam. Good luck to him.

Nice post mate. I've got a young family, i tend to think i'm boring, but i try not to be. I suppose its each to our own how we spend our hours on this planet.

Some of us are religious, some not. I will never bag a person like Jeb. He's just living his little life how he wants too. To call him a tool is just out and out jealousy. Sometimes i wish i could fly, but then i need my feet on the ground.

Each to their own. I love how his mum just gives up and lets him go. She knows whats going on.
