Base Jumping

Base Jumping is a Diversion in Saints Row 2 and Saints Row: The Third.
==Overview==
===Saints Row 2===
In Saints Row 2, the goal of Base Jumping is to land within a bullseye while parachuting. Landing in centre of the bullseye earns 3 Gold Stars and unlock the "no falling damage" reward.
This Diversion can only be started while a Parachute is deployed. After deploying the Parachute, a prompt appears to start the Diversion by pressing the Action button. Pressing the Action button when the prompt is not displayed jettisons the parachute.
Once the Diversion is activated, a bullseye appears on the mini-map and on the ground. Diversion stars are given depending on how close Playa is to the enter of the bullseye. The star level increases closer to the bullseye, and decreases further from the bullseye, and the stars are not awarded if the Diversion is canceled.
A 3rd Street Saints vehicle is usually found at the center of the bullseye, signified as a purple dot on the mini-map, although landing on the vehicle is not required in order to earn 3 Gold Stars. The vehicle is not always present, and is not required to unlock the reward, although if the vehicle is present within the bullseye, landing on it almost always unlocks the reward, but the reward does not always unlock even when landing in the exact center of the bullseye.
It is possible to slow Playa's descent, which is incredibly helpful. Over-shooting the bullseye and turning around does not prevent earning the maximum of 3 Gold Stars - the only thing that counts is where they land; so the earned stars can go up and down depending on the current distance from the center of the bullseye (which is unusual when earning Stars).
Base Jumping is featured in the "Room Service" mission, in which the final objective is "climb the rail and base jump into the atrium" at the top floor of the Tohoku Towers to escape an explosion. However, it is not a mission requirement to deploy the parachute, and there is no target on the ground.
===Saints Row: The Third===
Base Jumping returns as a Diversion in Saints Row: The Third; in an interview, Greg Donovan, producer of Saints Row: The Third at , stated, "if you jump off a building and you have a parachute, you'll get a prompt to use the parachute, or to base-jump".
However, as in Saints Row 2, the option to begin the Base Jumping Diversion appears only after deploying the parachute.
While the parachute can be deleted from the Wardrobe, the option always appears when falling from a great height. The last backpack used is shown when the parachute is deployed, regardless or whether it is currently in the Wardrobe.
