My wingsuit flying and base jumping themed list for 2017 was quite the failure, so now I'm struggling making up my mind: Same approach again or try something different?
I'm giving it another go but with different names. So here is my 2018 list of wingsuit pilots and base jumpers who can be assured that their mind-boggingly dangerous sport will leave them unharmed during the following calendar year: Luigi Cani Gary Connery Tony Uragallo Jeb Corliss James Boole Roberta Mancino Zak Tessier Hank Caylor Matt Gerdes Espen Fadnes Robert Pecnik Fraser Corsan Eric Dossantos (Some of them already survived major accidents and falls.) Alternate: John Madden (for variation, owing to his well-known aversion to flying)

I had to replace a few from last year. Others I dropped off so they better watch their ass.
Stefán Karl Stefánsson- kids show actor. Remains from last year even though he seems to be doing much better. Chris Mortensen- ESPN announcer Leon White- Big Van Vader pro wrestler Holly Rowe- ESPN announcer Clive James- author The Amazing Jonathan- seemingly immortal magician Jerry Remy- baseball player and broadcaster Akebono Taro- sumo champion Donnelly Rhodes- actor and Canadian Christopher Ayres- prolific voice actor Mark Gastineau- Jets Sack Exchange Devin Lima- singer Artie Lange- comic. Probably a mistake because he may have Keith Richards type DNA Alternates: Bart Starr- NFL great Jim Kelly- NFL great Tommy Chong- bong entrepreneur Clean list: Stefán Karl Stefánsson Chris Mortensen Leon White Holly Rowe Clive James The Amazing Jonathan Jerry Remy Akebono Taro Donnelly Rhodes Christopher Ayres Mark Gastineau Devin Lima Artie Lange Bart Starr Jim Kelly Tommy Chong |

I hope I'm not cheating. I posted a themed list in the other thread, and I think I get to post a different, non-themed list in this thread? To a certain extent, my lists tend to pretty much guarantee survival for all choices. I go years between earning points in this game. I may seriously be the worst player of all time. Disclaimers aside, here's the clean list:
Cowboy Bill Watts George H.W. Bush Barbara Bush Jimmy Carter Ole Anderson Ted Turner Ruth Bader Ginsburg Jay Leno David Letterman Clint Eastwood Reggie Jackson Kaley Couco Stephen Hawking Alternates: Patrick Stewart Danny Masterson Hillary Clinton Annotations: Cowboy Bill Watts--Wrestler/promoter George H.W. Bush--POTUS Barbara Bush--FLOTUS Jimmy Carter--POTUS Ole Anderson--Wrestler/promoter Ted Turner--Media mogul/Billionaire Ruth Bader Ginsburg--SCOTUS Jay Leno--Comic/Host David Letterman--Comic/Host Clint Eastwood--Actor/Director Reggie Jackson--"Mr. October"/Baseball player Kaley Couco--Actress Stephen Hawking--Genius Alternates: Patrick Stewart--Actor Danny Masterson--Actor Hillary Clinton---Politician
