A daredevil used a $15,000 full-body fat suit to sneak a parachute up to the observation deck of the Empire State Building for a spectacular stunt jump yesterday - but authorities thwarted his death-defying scheme by grabbing him (Jeb Corliss) as he prepared to plummet to the packed Midtown streets. full story: NY Post
In the past, Corliss has jumped off the Petronas Towers in Malaysia, formerly the world's tallest building. His specialty of BASE jumping is an acronym standing for Buildings, Antennas, Spans and Earth - all of which can be drop-off points for daredevil parachutists.
