Rescued BASE Jumper May Face Charges

Police may charge a BASE jumper who was rescued from a cliff face in national park in south-east Queensland. The man’s parachute failed seconds after he jumped, sending him crashing into the cliff at Christmas Creek near Beaudesert. His parachute tangled on a rock ledge about 50 metres from the top of the cliff and an SES volunteer was lowered to the man, before five men waiting at the top pulled them to safety
