Parachutes open safely during a base jump from a 500 feet, 150 metres, high tower of the Forth bridge in Edinburgh, Scotland, Sunday, September 10, 2000, by Austrian Felix Baumgartner, 30, and Swiss Ueli Gegenshatz, 32. Base jumping is an illegal sport where participants jump from fixed stuctures and hope their parachutes open in time. The pair evaded capture by the police as they were whisked off by a waiting dinghy in the Firth of Forth waterway below. (KEYSTONE/AP Photo/Marc Turner) === UNITED KINGDOM OUT/MAGAZINS OUT/ ===
