:29:01
Is that what I always said?
:29:05
Why are you taking so many chances now?
What are you trying to prove?
:29:10
We'll be jumping from a Howard DGA-15.
:29:14
DGA, that stands for Damn Good Airplane'
which, of course, it is.
:29:18
Very tricky to land, though.
:29:20
You're better off jumping out of it
than you are trying to land it.
:29:24
This one is in good shape.
:29:25
To Browdy, an airplane is in good shape
if it has wings and a prop.
:29:29
We've had a lot worse.
You remember that time in Adler?
:29:32
We had an airplane in Adler
that never even got off the ground.
:29:35
Hit the end of the runway'
went into a cornfield...
:29:37
...harvested about an acre of corn
before the pilot could get it stopped.
:29:42
Will you watch us jump tomorrow?
:29:45
We'll be there, won't we?
:29:47
Yes, I'm looking forward to it.
:29:53
What is the most dangerous stunt
that you do?
:29:56
The cape stunt.
That's a stunt we do with a cape.
:30:00
- Do you do that one?
- Oh, no.
:30:02
Rettig does that one.
:30:05
I don't understand
why you do this thing at all.
:30:09
To me it's a business.
:30:12
Mr. Rettig, what is it to you
if you don't mind my asking?
:30:23
I had a friend in the Army. A sergeant.
:30:25
A parachutist for about 20 years.
:30:29
He used to say
that jumping was not only a way to live...
:30:32
... but also a way to die.
:30:34
Damned few things are.
:30:38
That's very interesting.
:30:40
"He is at liberty to die,
who does not wish to live."
:30:43
- Do you believe that?
- That's dead wrong.
:30:47
Are you a religious man, Mr. Browdy?
:30:49
What's religion have to do with it?
:30:51
- Browdy goes to church every Sunday.
- Okay, kid.
:30:54
- Does that embarrass you, Mr. Browdy?
- No, it doesn't. Why should it?
:30:59
If we're going to go downtown
we'd better get started.
