Yukonbob mentioned "Sail" By AWOL Nation, but it really deserves to be called out explicitly in its own comment, along with this totally epic video:

And here's what happens when Jeb Corliss gets his ticket punched:

So the black balloon he was targeting got caught under a branch in the wind, so he went too low and hit is legs on a rock on that cliff edge. Tore two pounds of flesh were torn off his right leg and shattered both knees. He recovers in a single flip, and then his parachute tangles and he lands extremely hard in a bush. Six months in the hospital recovering.
