'I'm hanging from a tree': Base jumper stuck after dangerous mishap

An Australian base jumper spent hours dangling from a cliff-side tree after getting caught in a rogue gust of wind.

Rory Allen has shared a video of his brush with death after being pulled toward the rock face after hurling himself off a cliff in the adrenaline inducing sport."OK this is f---ing scary," he said in the video posted to TikTok."Its just got windy.... if the tree breaks or my canopy breaks, I'm going to break my back and some legs."

He managed to avoid suspension trauma, where blood gets trapped, by taking turns to "release each leg and wiggle" his feet.The dare devil said he will be "back at it" within weeks.

The batter left her crease as the ball was being bowled and stupidly got run out. The easy way to prevent this is to remain in your crease until the bowler releases the ball and stop trying to cheat those few metres. ICC has made it legal so batters have to now change their ways and watch the ball out of the hand.
