Outlaw basejumper leaps off a bridge

(CBS) - It goes without saying, but don't try this at home. Or on a bridge. Because it's incredibly dangerous. And you'll probably get arrested. Not that that stopped this gentleman, who decided to fight the power by jumping off a California bridge. He fought the law and, guess what, the law won.

"Oh, we're so busted," the base jumper, 47-year-old Steve Jester, says in the video. "I'm gonna do it anyway."

Nothing has ever ended well when those words are spoken. As local news station KSBW reports, Jester was eventually arrested. He was put on probation and sent to an alcohol rehab program. Rehab? Yes, if you couldn't tell, our law-defying daredevil is under the influence in this clip.
