So I was just freeriding on mt. Everest, hiding some geotags. enjoying the view... I took a jump from a wall on the left side and the camera angle turned to the sky. There is a strange spinning cloud there with some strange things sticking out of it :| looks like a crashed UFO, LOL. I have taken a picture but I don't know how to upload it here (forumnoob). Don't know if others saw it but I can't remember anything reading about it. It was on freeride so I don't know excactly where it was but it was like 1000m down I guess.

On Aoraki, there is a certain jump, if you hit it right, you look back up the mountain and see a ton of geotags.
BTW post the image URL in the [img ][ /img] tags. (No spaces)

I think a lot of photo-sharing sites let you upload photos via MMS. At least photobucket does.

I was on Patagonia - Majestic - Race it! On one of my runs near the beginning I was doing a wingsuit jump: that part where you can fly through the sprite of a mountain, when the game glitched me out.. the camera suddenly faced to the sky where there was this HUGE pillar going up really high to the sky, and there were thousands of geotags in a circle around the top of it miles up in the sky... really weird. Also once on Serenity I got on one of the grinds near the beginning and as I got on it I suddenly got blasted up really high.

Serenity right? I've seen something similar but its near the beginning of the run when I see it. Beside the first rail/archway where the diagonal jump is, when I hit that jump i see it in the sky to the right.

Not serenity but the DD on Everest. Where they took away the oxigen tank. My phone completely crashed last night... It crashed against the wall that is (LOL), so I'll try and make another photo later today.

I now what you mean but I think that cloud Is to stop ppl you use wingsuit , you can try it yourself . use the wingsuit to get above the map or try getting above the map so you can fly thru that cloud and you'll see you , you can't go thru it ;)


BTW sorry if my english isn't that good I live in the Netherlands and still go to school :)

That'll be the lack of oxygen making you feel lightheaded. Hallucinations. It happens at altitude. Just press R3 and you'll feel alright.

Could someone PM me their e-mail adress so I can send them the photos? I can't upload the photo to internet somehow... (I'm not sober right now so that could be the reason it doesn't work. LOL)

Thanks Geefunk! I know it's bad quality.

BTW, if you try to go back half-way on this track you'll see even stranger things in the sky :P

The cloud part appears on lots of levels and usually makes you go out of bounds if you fly through it. The stuff sticking out is probably part of the track you are riding on in the distance, or part of another track that joins onto the one you are riding on. If you are looking at the track from underneath, it is quite often invisible which is why you can only see fragments of the track.

If you jump through a hole in the ceiling of an Africa drop, you will see what I mean. It looks like all of the tunnels have open tops in a lot of places.

Yeah, I've been messing around in freeride more lately and I did see mountains dissapear when going backwards. Without freeride I wouldn't have seen it I think.
