Last week on the show, we talked with Tom Aiello, a veteran B.A.S.E. jumper and instructor, who was participating in the annual Bridge Day Festival in Fayetteville, West Virginia. B.A.S.E. jumpers are the extreme athletes who jump from buildings, antennae, spans and Earth. The sport can be dangerous, and at last week's event, veteran Brian Lee Schubert jumped to his death. Bill talks with Tom Aiello about the tragedy that unfolded before his eyes.
