I have to admit, the aircraft one is hard to beat! That is a really cool idea! My idea is to have it on the top of a very tall, and big skyscraper in San Francisco!!!

Tommy might be in trouble at that one in SF :eek:

I'm sorry, that was horrible, but it was too good to pass up. I hope that he makes a speedy and complete recovery. O:-)

Not really extreme but a meet in DC on the mall. Capital in front Washington monument at back and a whole lot of people.

Or how about a dock vault, a box at the end of a long runway into the water. And standards sunk into the sand

How about vaulting over a football field goal? I am trying to get my college to let me do that after our team scores a touchdown. That, I think, would be cool.
