This is always a fun event.  It's a closet motorcycle convention too.  I went in the early 90's when they made the record for the worlds longest bungee jump.  First a cage of seven people were bungeed off the side of the bridge.  Then from the cage a single person bungeed to the bottom.  A BASE jumper managed to land in one of the white water rafts too.  Some guy dressed up as a cow when he jumped, udder and all.  Very entertaining.

Bridge Day is the largest extreme sports event in the world held on the third Saturday in October every year in Fayetteville, West Virginia, USA. Hundreds of BASE jumpers and nearly 250,000 spectators are expected to attend this year's Bridge Day on Saturday, October 18, 2003.

The New River Gorge Bridge, 876' tall and the world's longest single arch bridge, serves as the launch point for six hours (9am-3pm EST) of legal, safe BASE jumps.
