Investigation 6
For Investigation 6 we had to chose an aviation thrill seeker which had done something very different to most other thrill seekers.
Gerardo chose Tamar Bridge who is a stunt girl that strapped herself to the top of a plane while it did loops the loops and spun around. I am sure that by now this isn`t considered thrill seeking compared to many other thrill seeking events in aviation history. This is because i believe thrill seeking is based of how dangerous it is to do something, and with advancements in technology many things that were impossible at that time now are possible.
For Aidan's Thrill Seeking moment, he chose the time when Vince Reffet and Fred Fugen who are the first men to Base jump off the Burj Khalifa which is the tallest building in the world. This was a very thrill seeking moment as most people just base jump off average sized building but these men jumped off the tallest building in the world. I think that even though this was a couple years ago it would still be considered very thrill seeking because the record still hasn't been
broken.
