If he hasn't got a parachute, he's stuffed.

I really hope he has a parachute. Surely no-one could be that stupid. He was 5km in the sky at the last sighting!! :eek:

Sankari · 23 Apr 2008 at 22:38

Apparently you can. :confused:

Maybe he just floated up to god?

This was on Radio1 this morning. They said he had a parachute with him.

He will really see how his faith has paid of with that one.
