Southern Idaho Tourism has just announced, August 26th 2019, that the highly anticipated Wings For Love World Cup BASE Jump Competition has been cancelled.
A BASE jumper injured his leg when jumping off Perrine Bridge Thursday. The Twin Falls County Sheriff's Office resounded to the call a little after noon. The man jumping was from Florida and packed his own chute, but Deputy Sheriff Stacy Gorrell does not know how many prior jumps he has done.
Videos and photos have been surfacing on social media the last few days of incredible base jumpers on the Perrine Bridge in Twin Falls. Twin Falls kayaks, paddle boarders and boaters like, Dustin Murphy, have watched the filming of what's said to be season 2 of "Miles Daisher Above".
