theres so much other factors to concider when your trying to figure everything out its almost never gonna be perfect conditions, things like how fast he hits the jump, wind, and other stuff like that

Your wrong, he didnt break his neck on the jah drop he actualy broke it on another 40 foot drop, the jah drop is 55 feet. And the jah drop is almost a flat landing, in context of how high the drop was. Dont doubt bender he knows his shit.

It's really difficult to gauge, cuz none of us have actually seen the drop (i think). If it had a good run-in, a MASSIVE landing, and a long run-out, I'll say it's possible. Of course it's dicey, of course there is a possiblity that he could die if he cased it, but i guess the same can be said about freeride in general. It's our sport, and I think we should be supportive of people willing to take risks. Even if it does seem absurd talking about it...imagine how sick that would be if just completely rocked it.

How do you case a drop..... enless you dont land on the landing.. but its a drop.. from an edge to a runout.. i dont think there anything to case. And at 100feet, the last thing you need worry about is casing anything.
