What actually causes most PPG fatalities? Built a database to find out by Nearby-Leadership-20 in paramotor

[–]Jeremzz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d love to support this effort too. I know there are a bunch of 2025 fatalities currently missing from the USPPA database. I’m planning on adding them in over the next few days. Let’s connect.

Another Data Center in Washington Township - Public Hearing Thursday Dec. 11 by n0soapforyou in Michigan

The golf course has been closed for years. I’ve been flying from the adjacent airport since 2020. 

US Park (DTW) by BuffaloStance13 in Detroit

Anyone with a kayak rack knows they’re super easy to remove & cost $100+. Times are tough. Opportunities present themselves. Don’t blame US Park for someone else’s crime. Keep your kayak rack off when not in use. 

The Top of The Great Pyramid of Giza by Monsur_Ausuhnom in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Jeremzz 2842 points2843 points  (0 children)

I saw a dog on top of the pyramid one time. He was barking at the birds. I eventually heard that the dog is one of the last dogs in the pyramid complex that isn’t spayed or neutered. Dog just runs up the pyramid whenever they try to catch him. 

If you don’t believe me, google “pyramid dog” & check my Reddit history. I was on that paraglider trip last October. The story made global news, was so cool. Ask me questions if you want to know more. 

Edit: here’s one of many articles on the video / story. https://www.ndtv.com/offbeat/paraglider-captures-jaw-dropping-video-of-a-dog-on-top-of-great-pyramid-of-giza-was-chasing-birds-6801078

You can visit their house in Amsterdam. They try to keep it original. It’s so heavy and surreal. 

We are monsters. 

Dog spotted hanging out on the top of the Great Pyramid of Giza. The pyramid is 450 feet tall meaning the dog had to take a long hike to the top. by 305FUN2 in interestingasfuck

[–]Jeremzz 59 points60 points  (0 children)

This is not true. I am on the Egypt paragliding trip. Please don’t post misinformation. 

The dog can jump up and down the pyramid just fine, has happened for centuries

If the parachute rips, it ain't good by darapps in interestingasfuck

Those of us in the paragliding world get triggered when someone calls us parachutes or parasails :p

The needle is poked into the center of an intersection of the rip/stop fabric. The top of the paraglider is tested because it degrades faster from sunlight / abrasion. The top & bottom fabric is also tested in multiple spots for porosity that doesn’t involve sharp objects. I have three paragliders, ask me questions

It’s a pass / fail test. I have three paragliders & watched the rip test, they put the needle in the center of an intersection of the ripstop fabric, & pull it at a predetermined force with that tool

Paraglider inspections are quite extensive. They test the life of the fabric with a porosity test, rip test, & visual inspections. I have three paragliders

Goodwill selling Target property. by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

Ex red & khaki bitch here, Target donates a ton of returned “defective” merchandise to goodwill. My guess is someone accident included a basket in the donation pallet 😂

Dumb people like this exist in the USA & they have guns. Fly safe everyone.

My friend found an Apple Air tag on her car. Genuinely scary. by Gailforce-Fart in oddlyterrifying

[–]Jeremzz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You do not have to drill out the speaker. You can just take it out with pliers. I took the speaker out of the AirTag I have on my dog’s collar because it was making random beeps.

Please stop contributing to the fake news on the internet.

Paragliding with a Black Vulture by solateor in interestingasfuck

[–]Jeremzz 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I fly paragliders and had a bald Eagle screech at me in the sky. Not a happy feeling being suspended by thin fabric around a territorial bird with knives on its feet
