Very close to New Year's Eve and very little PR work for the big jump. The build up for daredevil cyclejumpers used to cause quite a stir. New Years eve already has a captive audience and the Red bull stunts have taken on a magicians act to the majority of viewers. They know the stunt will in all probability be successful, still fun to watch. What would be wrong with a little patriotism, as in some red white and blue leathers and helmet? Show him drinking a red bull in a red white and blue can. Sponsors certainly get enough air time without putting the main event in a multi-colored clown suit plastered with sponsor names. Not here to ruffle feathers. The USA could use a reminder of our colors, flag and what we stand for. What better time than a big event starting off the New Year.This is ONE of the main reasons I am "old school". ( plus the fact I am "older" and grew up with the traditional daredevils )Unlimited take-off and landing distance with 747 landing ramp. He will make it look easy.
