He hit it so fast he disintegrated.Nope not one bit, dude is dead nowhe clipped a bridge.
in the footage I watched it looks like he hits the bridge and bounces 3-4 times then tumbles over the edge ....
..... but he pulled his chute it seems
I was under the impression they found him in pieces.
yeah I need to delve further into this incident, but seeing that impact in shitty quality was still pretty savage

I was thinking of this guy. In the description it mentions, 'The slam into the bridge was so strong, it totally disintegrated him.'.
is that Unbeliever?my name?
hehe it's taken from the word Jahannum, which "is one of the names for the Islamic concept of Hell."
and the word Jehannum was the name of a character in one of my favourite fantasy novels.
yup but haven't actually read the final trilogy, which was written (or at least released) after I'd stopped reading books so much
I've got the Illearth war too but I've not started it yet..I was gifted a diskworld book round the time I bought that and was deeeep into it
. I'll look for it again.
I know I've got the first 2 trilogies, with Illearth war being 1 of those 6 books I believe, but there's another trilogy now too.I've got the Illearth war too but I've not started it yet..I was gifted a diskworld book round the time I bought that and was deeeep into it
probably my top fantasy series (after LOTR ofc) and I've read a lot of them, at least up to 2003 give or take

Oh really???Heh common motif in fantasy..Hitchhiker's guide, Foundation, all of 'em
I could not get past chapter two of the Twin towers
..there was a point on the mountain where everyone was singing....and I was singing in my head to me, reading the song..to myself.. and I just couldn't keep reading..I probably should've skipped some pages, but I think around that time I tried to read Don Quixote as well, and put off all books for a while...My favourite by far is diskworld, it makes me laugh out loud at points and its a really easy read, but I remember liking the chronicles and I nearly had forgotten about it.
Would you recommend them in order I suppose?
@Ghost Bro LOTR is hard to read cause of the older style of English it's written in, added to the fact that it's depressing throughout.I read it when I was 12 I think, whereas I was probably 18-20 when I first read The Chomas Covenant stuff.
and yeah I'd definitely say read em in order, The timeline is one of the most memorable aspects of the books for me, and there
is a "beginning" to each trilogy which is important. An intro
Raymond E Feist has created an amazing universe too with his Riftwar stuff set in Midkemia, and he's written more stuff for it that I haven't picked up. (yet, hopefully) I'd recommend finding a list though that explains what order to read them in, or at least what order they were released in, if you do decide to give em a go.
Yh I definitely tried reading LOTR too soon too..now I'm not sure if it's worth it now because I've seen the films. What a predicament..

I've heard about Riftwar, but I still have to check that out too.. I've started too many books..its ridiculous.
Well awesome!! Thanks for the recommendations, we'll probably pick this up sometime over at Geek Haven
