Bismarck Police Department

February 22 at 6:43 PM ·

Bismarck Police are asking the public to use caution around the Missouri River. Police responded to two incidents today of individuals being out on the ice. The ice is unstable, unpredictable and can be extremely dangerous. Please use common sense and stay off the river!

Not sure but someone said N. of the bridge / pioneer park area

He definitely had the flat part right - not the earth being flat but he ended up being flat.

If the photo is correct, that's the interstate bridge, looking northwest from Grant Marsh boat launch.

Maybe someone did another "General Lee" off the interstate bridge again? That Durango last summer must have had wings, to have gone completely over River Road..

OK who's the dumbass that packed the chute in the exhaust port? :;:sorry

Always wise to have a plan B when plan A fails. ;:;badidea

Im wondering if there was any in cockpit or mounted on the rocket camera footage that survived. That would be interesting... Maybe set a record for most swear words spoken in 3 seconds or something like that!

“When the rocket was nosediving and he didn't release the three other parachutes he had in the rocket, lots of people screamed out and started wailing,” Chapman told BuzzFeed News in an email. “Everyone was stunned when he crashed and didn't know what to do.”

Back in the 60s we were visiting relatives in Jamestown and we went to an airshow , They had a skit where they threw a dummy out of the plane and the announcers were going bonkers hollering pull the chute, Pull the chute , and having fun with it and when the dummy hit the ground and the crowd went crazy for a few seconds. Then they let on that it was just a dummy and everyone thought it was funny. I bet people would squeal like pigs and sue the airshow if they tried that now days.
