JRE MMA Show #6 with Eddie Bravo

Joe Rogan (0:05)

Dude, so I was looking at this video today of this dude jumping this cliff in his bike.

Like, Jamie was showing this one guy who does this on buildings. He does it, like, he rides his bike on, like, the ledges of buildings and shit and jumps from building to building. And I was watching this other guy jump this cliff with his bike, like, literally, like, jumps over one side of the cliff and lands onto the other. It's fucking, like, you're watching the whole thing, you're going, Jesus Christ, if he falls, he's dead, he's fucking dead, that shit's totally legal, right? Like, we were talking about people thinking that MMA is barbaric, that it should be illegal. Like, where should you be allowed to take your risks?

Look at this fucking guy. This guy's crazy, dude, look at this shit. Hopping from building to building. I mean, he's riding a bike on the edges of these buildings. This is fucking insane. I mean, this guy's got just ridiculous control with his bicycle. I mean, should this be legal?

Jamie (1:03)

I don't know.

Joe Rogan (1:04)

Seems like he's doing okay. He seems fine.

But if he fucks up, like, you know about that Chinese dude that just died?

Jamie (1:10)

No.

Joe Rogan (1:11)

He was one of those YouTube guys who would take videos of him on top of skyscrapers and shit.

Jamie (1:17)

He fell.

Joe Rogan (1:17)

He fell to his death.

Eddie Bravo (1:19)

Damn.

Joe Rogan (1:19)

Yeah, dude, it looks ugly, too. It looks scary, like he was trying to call himself up, and he couldn't, and you see his hands slip, and you realize that's a wrap, son.

Eddie Bravo (1:26)

Oh.

Joe Rogan (1:27)

600 feet.

Eddie Bravo (1:28)

I had a friend who was training to be a base jumper, and there's like things you got to do. You know, so many regular skydiving jumps. You got to master skydiving, and just that before you get into, and then there's things you have to do. There's like, listen, halfway through, too many people died in the scene, or this person just stepped back and said, you know what, maybe, because it's not that uncommon where these crazy base jumpers die or almost die, right?

Joe Rogan (1:59)

Oh, yeah, there's a lot of videos. There's one I saw that was awful.

This Russian guy jumps off the top of this building and his parachute doesn't open up in time, and he bounces off the ground, and you hear him screaming. And they just go, whoa.

Eddie Bravo (2:12)

How about that one guy? What do they call that? They don't call it base jumping, but they're like flying squirrels.

What is that?

Joe Rogan (2:19)

My friend Andy is the world record holder.

Andy Stumps, the world record holder. He flew, what was it, 18 miles? I think he covered 18 miles.

Eddie Bravo (2:27)

What's that called?

Joe Rogan (2:28)

It's a flying wingsuit.

Eddie Bravo (2:30)

But there's one guy that's super famous for doing it too, and he was supposed to go through, you know, they go down canyons, and he went between two rocks, and his leg clipped one of them. He didn't die though, which is crazy.

Joe Rogan (2:43)

Well, you know the one guy that did die on the Golden Gate Bridge? Did you ever see that one?

He slammed right into the bridge while people were watching him. He was supposed to go between the wires and hit the bridge.

Eddie Bravo (2:56)

Like he jumped off a plane?

Joe Rogan (2:58)

Crazier, like he hit it like a bullet.

Eddie Bravo (3:02)

No, but he jumped off a plane and then went flying down and tried to go through the bridge?

Joe Rogan (3:05)

I don't know where he jumped off of. I don't know if he jumped off of a plane or he jumped off of another bridge. I don't know what he did, but when he was trying to do it, he literally slammed right into the bridge and it sounds like a crazy car accident.

Eddie Bravo (3:17)

Like, bang! How long ago was that?

Joe Rogan (3:19)

No, a few years back. This is it. You want to hear it?

Give us some volume, Jamie.

Jamie (3:25)

It wasn't Golden Gate, but...

Joe Rogan (3:26)

San Francisco, which bridge was it? It's horrible, dude.

Eddie Bravo (3:39)

Who's that in the parachute?

Jamie (3:41)

That's another guy, he was flying with another guy.

Joe Rogan (3:44)

Oh my god.

Eddie Bravo (3:45)

Oh shit. It sounded like there was a bunch of people there watching too.

Joe Rogan (3:54)

Were too.
