The term "base" stands for antennae, span, building and earth i.e these are the structures from which the base jumpers plummet from. The term "span" means the bridge and it covers the bridges of all types. It actually stands for all those structures that span over a valley. The term "earth" in this adventure sport includes cliffs,mountains etc. In this kind of sport the participant has to climb on the top of the buildings or various other structures and then he has to jump. During his free fall, he opens up his parachute just when he is about to touch the ground. He enjoys this free fall and the feeling of weightlessness which is a fear for some people. And that's why it is always said that the people with weak hearts should never try this sport.
Base jumping gives you the real pleasure of adventure but at the same time it is risky in many ways.The most common risk involved in this game is to find a clean,no-risk area while jumping or landing.The player has to take care of the wind also because when the wind is against,the players can collide with the structure they are jumping from.The players usually look out for a large sufficient area so that they can jump and land safely.If the player misses this targeted area then serious injuries can take place.Base jumping causes many fatalities every year.The Base jumping societies or clubs have seen at least one member who went through a serious injury during the pursuit of their lovable game.
Base jumping is simmilar to Bunjee jumping with the only major difference of a Bungee cord. Some people also call it as skydiving without an aeroplane. The jumpers have to maintain their stability and decision-making power when they are in the air.It is always recommended that the jumper should always take a full course in skydiver training before he tries his hands at base jumping. A mentor should always be there for somebody who is new in this sport. The basic criteria for those who want to be a base jumper is that they should have a razor sharp awareness of altitude.
Every adventure sport can become more interesting only when it is done with complete training and guidance so that you can say goodbye to risks involved and welcome the immense interest.
