Again received a message from a worried paraglider pilot, about what happened at Calpe. We all know we have a fantastic site near Calpe, Morro de Toix. Well there has been an accident there, but NOT with a paraglider. NO, it was a base jumper. They jumped from Peñon d'Ifach the famous rock in Calpe. The base jumper got smacked into the rocks, and hung there for 5 hours, untill a helicopter rescue team saved her. Meanwhile more suspense as her boyfriend, fireman from Madrid, tried to help her but got stuck there himself. It was all over the news as a paraglider accident. And we had nothing to do with it. Sad for us, and not at all helpfull. So if any base jumper would be out there reading this, it would be nice if he apologized for not writing a newsletter ( yet !) to the papers to rectify the mistake. Even better if the couple would visit the vegetable market on sunday morning in Calpe, handing out leaflets, telling them all they are never gonna do it again.
Maybe the base jumpers had an off day and didn't think about us yet.
No worries, our time will come, we will act in response to this grievance, revenge ! Take care guys, today was too windy anyway.
