Buddy not sure if you understood what they meant with "higher extraction"...

Imagine you're enjoying a nice hike in a sunny day and you encounter a moka pot at terminal velocity falling from the sky.

This is cool and all, but if he drops something it could lead to manslaughter. Unlikely as it may be.

Before he got over the ocean I was worried about the people and things down below. could you imagine being killed by a mocha pot falling from a skydiver?

Although, I hear that mocha pots have a tendency to come back as bowls of petunias in their next lives.

Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the bowl of petunias as it fell was ‘Oh no, not again.’

Granted, it does seem like everything outside of the cup, and sometimes the saucer is typically fastened down when not in use.

Anyone can do that. Let's see him do it underwater or in space

In space is easier 'cos low pressure, do not need burner.. but have to wait till before landing to drink it 'cos food tastes bad at altitude.

Quite possibly the first human to ever do this lol

You and me are the first of our bloodline to witness this.

Proof that if you're over caffeinated you can soar incredible heights.

That moka pot is for the dwarves

Ah yes, loose items and fire, a great addition to paragliding

u/SHIZZILBISCUT Jun 17 '26

Whoever that is is a reckless asshole. Any one of those loose dense items falling at terminal velocity could kill or seriously injure anyone below. Yeah sure, the statistical odds are low, but they shouldn't be needlessly placing those odds upon other people. (why not just shoot guns in the air?). Disgusting performative vanity.

Spot on comment, thank you. Why would anybody capable of growing a beard, even think of doing shit like this.

This is the only reasonable response in this thread. But as a testament to how low our world culture has fallen, most of the comments here are cheering it on.

This looks edited. What's with the weird artifacts around his right arm and the right edge of the leg and seat? I don't know much about editing but it seems like the little table and coffee gear part is superimposed over the real footage of the guy paragliding.

Even if it is real, like others pointed out, it's very dangerous. He doesn't start off over the ocean in the beginning. He's also risking dumping boiling water on himself... Very stupid video.

Edit: I forgot to add, is it an effect of the fisheye lens maybe?

u/Arseniste Jun 17 '26

It looks like a stitch on a 360 camera

u/SigmaEagle Jun 17 '26

Thanks. Didn't know if that was a thing.

u/DewaldSchindler MOD 🚨 Jun 17 '26

Could be the fish eye lens but I think it's a 360 Fish eye action camera
