That is the most stupid thing I've ever seen
anyone do. Fucking idiot and show off.
Good thing you kept your lens on him. It is
a cool capture, scary as it may be.

This picture is insanely scary - it made my
hair stand on end when I first looked at it.
You've captured the moment impeccably - this
is the perfect moment of capture. But I
really can't imagine how he could have done
anything like that! Whew!

I had the same feeling as purpwaltz. I am
scared by what this guy is doing since I
always feared the strength of gravity. I am
looking at the rock to the right and wonder
how he will land there.
This is a great capture, Hans!

photoshop, is brilliant. Excellent work my
friend!

This guy's nuts. Especially to be doing that
in sandals. Even if he made the jump who's to
say the rocks don't crumble in his hands once
he hits the other side.
Will tomorrow's conclusion show a red stain
at the base of the Canyon?

Yes Tam and others it's true. In this pic I used levels,
curves, sharpening and I darkened the outside
edges a bit. I was very focused to get the
timing right and also was lucky of course :)

I don't think my mother or girlfriend would
appreciate knowing what kind of stuff I did
at the Grand Canyon, so I won't admit to
doing anything like that. Funny thing is
that I remember exactly where that is, and I
contemplated, very shortly, doing the same
thing. I didn't think I'd make it back with
25 pounds of camera equipment on my back,
though, so I just stuck to climbing and
sliding to peninsulas, isthmuses, and close
islands.

myklmabalay: The interesting landscape in
the Grand Canyon is WAY DOWN. Shooting WAY
DOWN from the rock behind would introduce
that pesky rock in front. The easiest way to
eliminate that rock is to be on it.

Optical illusion: the drop is still 900-odd
feet, BUT there is probably a ledge hiding
behind the stone on the right. Note the
shadows from the previous picture.
It's still a ballsy jump, but I don't think
it's as insane as it would appear.

This shot made my stomach turn. (I'm afraid

I sure hope you hurry and post the last
shot because I'm seriously stressed over
this.
However, it's such a completely awesome
shot that I'm:
a) Blogging it on odd time signatures
and
b) Going to keep refreshing your
photostream until I see how it was resolved.
