"To jump off a building in the CBD of Melbourne is just a silly thing to do." Fairfax reckons it was entertainment, Deputy Commissioner...

Four men ordered c--ktails at a high-end restaurant before skipping out on the bill in a somewhat novel way - by BASE jumping from Melbourne’s Rialto tower.
Dressed in business suits, the group arrived with suitcases and told staff they were on their way to the airport.

The men walked out onto the bar’s balcony, taking helmets with cameras attached out of their suitcases. They then pushed each other up and over the glass barrier surrounding the deck and BASE jumped.
