TODAY IN ADVENTURE | | Brodie Jumps Brooklyn Bridge: Did you know? | | On July 23rd (that’s today!), 1886, Steve Brodie made the first successful jump into the East River from the Brooklyn Bridge. The New York Times covered the story and said he leaped from 120 feet or the same height as a 14-story building. Not everyone believed Brodie’s story. Skeptics believed that he dropped a dummy from the bridge and appeared swimming beside a passing barge. Regardless, Brodie capitalized on the stunt and became a popular character in musical shows in New York City where the kids began calling risky moves, 'Doing a Brodie.' | | |
