Submit your Halloween pumpkin pics to /r/horror's carving competition!

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

He's not actually falling toward the earth. The gravity created by his massive balls is pulling the earth toward him.

Hi, I'm Felix Baumgartner, welcome to Jackass!

Sorry, the camera pointed at him made me think of it.

[–]andrewsmith1986 1 point2 points ago

I've always wanted to break the project excelsior record.

[–]lilsteezy 0 points1 point ago

That's what he is going to be attempting. This was just a test jump.

[–]braxford 1 point2 points ago

That's 13.56 miles.
Holy shit.

Heres a video of it

Redbull loves to do crazy shit like this.

[–]myopinionstinks 11 points12 points ago

That video showed everything except the cool shit we wanted to see. It was a commercial; more or less.

[–]socks 1 point2 points ago

I'm not buying a single red bull till they show this damn jump!!

[–]TheAngryMarmot 0 points1 point ago

Balls of steel.

[–]Shwype 0 points1 point ago

Red bull sponsors all of the crazy stunts..

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

Is this for the record or something? I'm not hating or anything just wondering why anyone would do it? This shit has been before, and decades ago. So why now?

[–]Alexdoh -2 points-1 points ago

Video of the event

Pretty good stunt by Redbull.
