Does anyone know how big the bridge is that Rory Bushfield jumped off of twice in the Hit List. One of the clips can be seen in the trailer.

Im calling 70 feet, but if anyone knows for sure or has a guess, lets hear it.

No thats pushin more like 90,we jump of this 75 foot cliff all the time and you can't lay double gainers off it like that, close but not quite you land on your belly.

i think it was somewhere in like germany or something. In the movie theres a sign in the backround with weird writing, and the measurement of the road length (thats what i think it is, but its definitley not the height of the bridge. It says like 300m or something) is in metric, so its not in the US

Yeah I'd say at least 90, most likely into the hundreds. I jumped a 70 alot this summer and there is no way it was that big.

Haha... I tried a double gainer off a 60ish footer in Punshbowl and bailed halfway through the second one and smacked on my back... But he easily pulls it of with room to spare so now Im retracting my guess and saying 90-100ish.

Yeah... haven't pulled it off yet though. My friend lives on lake Sammamish and has a 20 ft dock (like the roof to her boathouse) And that girl is such a joke. Shes lived there for 5 years and has never jumped off the top dock. We were over there and some of my friends bet that I couldn't do a gainer (Id been doing back and front 1 1/2s all day) And they told me that I might want to try with a lifevest first because it hurts like a bitch if you land on your back. Not me though, I was too cool for a life vest, so I took like three steps and took off and bailed and landed on my back after screaming bloody murder. An of course I waited until everyone was in the house so I wouldn't look like afool if I didn't do it. But moral of the story: I got so pissed about being teased that I worked on them like no other until I could do it in my sleep... And then the same thing happens at Punchbowl... My friends just love to see how far they can push me until I get pissed off until the point of having to do it until we can leave. Sorry so long, lol.

no idea. on a side note.. does anyone but me have trouble with gainers higher up? im not talking about balls, here, ill try em, but the righer i go, the more i lay em out, even when im only about 20 feet up. i can whip em around a foot off the water, or 10 feet, but bust it up to 20 and i cant help laying em out, and i always belly flop. iv tried goin 30 feet or so, i just end up laying it out more and bellyflopping harder. i hate headgames. anyone got advice?

I used to have that problem too... just throw em faster but don't over-rotate or anything... Its hard to get the timing down... Sorry... that probably didn't help that much...

^well its a good movie if you like big mountain stuff. Its pretty much all like big mountain and cliff drops and stuff. Mike Wilsons part is like all park and is the best part in the movie i think.
