Skydivers leap off world's tallest building


Daredevils have jumped from the world's tallest building after Malaysia opened a parachuting contest at its landmark Petronas Twin Towers, despite two crashes that dogged last year's event. A record 70 people from 16 countries are in Kuala Lumpur for a chance to BASE jump -- parachute from a fixed object instead of an airplane -- an activity driven underground in most countries for legal reasons.
