A headache and potential cause of liability for high-rise buildings, BASE jumping describes a practice in which parachutists leap from high fixed objects, such as Buildings, Antennas, Spans, and Earth (or cliffs). The practice, usually illegal, is recently on the rise according to a jumper who tracks such activity.
