Since 1856, it has been illegal for someone to jump off a building in the state of New York. This bizarre law is met with an even more bizarre punishment: death. In 2006, a professional skydiver, Jeb Corliss, tried to leap from the 86th floor observation deck and was indicted. A panel of judges in 2008 ruled that his felony charge be reduced to reckless endangerment since he was a professional.
