Anyone see the loon jumping off High Force

[the dark one]

Someone will see that and end up doing it and f***ing up

A lad from Farra died about30 year ago jumping into high force, don't know if it was from the top mind. Floody he was called.

Bloke I used to work with was on holiday up there about 25 years ago when his son slipped and went over. He somehow survived and as far as I know he was the only one ever to survive going over High Force till now

That sounds vaguely familiar. Think I might have known him.

I was up there on Sunday, like to walk up that way after heavy rain, to see the flood going over the force.
I was on the Penine Way side of the falls and saw this bloke and his mates in a group doing something on the other side, thought they were students doing field studies or something . We had just walked away when there was shouting and screaming , if I had stopped a minute or two longer I could have got some cracking photos and made a bob or two from the papers. Story of my life !

About 20 years ago some buffoon tried to wade to the island in the middle as he carried his 5 year old son . He dropped the bairn ,who drowned and the buffoon survived .

 

[JAZZMANB]

Is he mental or actually a decent cliff jumper? That spin was elaborate and suggests a pro.

Living life i suppose,clearly a lot of bottle and decent in water .Used to do daft stuff from height when i was young.Not keen on the water bit

Someone will see that and end up doing it and f***ing up

Could say that about all the dangerous activities out there
