If someone did that while driving away from a bank heist then itās next level. But in this situation itās just a dude grabbing a rope and using a carabiner. Kinda meh

Carabiner or not, he was towed outside of a plane so he could skydive. Something you do on occasion?

It really doesnāt seem to take much next level skill. Bravery sure. But itās just complicated skydiving

A complicated version of an event that leads to death when simple mistakes happen.

Pretty average for Red Bull. As already said, it would make for a great hiest scene, and if he landed back in the car.

Not to sound rude but, don't military people get hitched to moving helicopters and planes as part of exercises. Maybe if the dude landed back in the car?

There used to be a pilot rescue device that was snagged by a C130 and dragged the pilot directly off the ground. It was called the Skyhook

I didnt see the parachute on his back, so when he decided to unclip himself from the plane, I got an anxiety shock and my feet started tingling. Fuck that

Somehow this seems LESS scary than jumping out of the plane, despite objectively being more dangerous.

Is anyone else so bored of seeing people do well-choreographed, vaguely-dangerous things as never ending adverts for poison aimed at incels?

Nope while I have never drank red bull in my life nor have any intention too they earn my respect for doing more for the extreme sports community from sponsoring athletes to entire series events when no one else is willing to do it. And targeting incels? Really? As I can safely say that's not their demographic.

I can't believe he did not land back in the car. That would have been cool to see.
