Sheesh! I looked up how many parachutists die each year from wind turbines... there are stats for base jumpers happens yearly from what I read but I couldn’t find anything in regards to deaths from people jumping from planes nnd getting killed by the tower or blades. There are a crazy amount of deaths from maintenance workers tho... wouldn’t want to be one of those guys, damn!

anyone parachuting and hits one, probably deserves to hit it.

Parachutist getting a bad result from a wind turbine.

Terminal Velocity, it was a good movie.

Lol! Tony Soprano could pack a punch! I’ve never seen this movie but that was cold blooded (the knife to the back).

Hilarious movie.

Great stunts.

Probably introduced the concept of wind turbines to a lot of people when the film was first released.

Haven't seen it in a long time.

without the wind turbines, it would get way too hot in the deserts. they need the air circulation and you can't air condition the outdoors!

Natural gas fucked up TX even more than wind energy.

Also the wind turbines are all in RED AREAS in west TX. The TX GOP promoted shutting down coal plants in the 2000s and 2010s and replacing them with wind and natural gas. Abbott is so fucked in 2022.
