Havasupai Sendy Convention (120 Foot Cliff Jump)
The biggest cliff jumping event in history just unfolded deep within the depths of the Grand Canyon. A mass gathering of the best cliff jumpers from all over the United States assembled for one week in one of the most beautiful cliff jumping locations in the world known as Havasupai. Our goals were set to a maximum and our balls were at our heaviest. Every jumper pulled the trigger with their signature jump from heights up to 120 feet off cliffs that have never been tamed before. Fears were conquered, limits were pushed and most importantly everyone was safe! Every precaution was taken to make sure we all hiked out alive. Water depths were checked, safety crews took their place, flotation devices were present and the rest we left to our years of experience. As a result no one was seriously injured. It was the sendiest convention of them all!
Havasu Falls was personally measured by us at 93 feet (28.3 meters). The towering cliff next to the falls was measured at exactly 120 feet (36.6 meters). I shot most of these clips with a Sony a7sII at 120fps. Additional footage by Dillon Bucher (@lifesodetermined) and Kortney Slater thank you!
