Dying doing what you love, eh? We have a 480' bridge here with legal BASE jumping. A couple years ago, a 70+ guy came up with a really great stunt. He had an assistant who was going to light his chute on fire. Then he'd jump, release the burning chute, and pop his good chute. Didn't work as planned. The assistant sprayed the chute with some kind of propellant but it also got on the jumper. When they lit the chute, the flames jumped to the man and he went off the bridge in a ball of fire. He didn't release the burning chute. He just fell. The flames likely would have burned the lines on his good chute anyway.
