if you're going to do a crazy bet like this, I hope you're considering force and acceleration. Holding on after a 7 second freefall is a whole different animal than a 4 second freefall. Most static-line jumps vary between 3-6 seconds.

Yeah you gotta admit that if you loose you won't have to worry about payment to much.

terminal vel. in 12 sec's? No way. HALO jumpers can have incredibly long free falls that start from high enough in the atmosphere to require supplemental O2.

Money in escrow beforehand ldo. And terminal velocity just means the maximum speed you can reach in freefall due to air resistance.

HALO is a video game, not real life.

Get a life

hmm, ok, so its close enough to generate some interst. i have one friend who is somewhat sure that this is doable and supposedly would be instantly up for it for anything hitting the 6 figure range... surely a handful of people could put some sort of monetary value and an offer along with stipulations together??

Dude, you're a huge degen, and think about the two outcomes of this bet:

1. You lose a ton of money, or
2. Someone dies.
