this is bs and you know it. check out snopes for you dopes. there is a shelf below the jump and its really one long rock sticking out into the canyon. Refer to the pictures links below and folllow the snopes page down to the bottom photo and click on it and you will see the entire rock and how easy it would be to get out there and too make that jump.

Yep nice shot, though not as scary when you know the drop - i.e. the gap between those two pieces of rock - is about 3 feet deep.

Good framing. What you can't see is the connecting ledge between the two rocks. You would only fall a short distance if the jump went wrong.

The area shown is a popular photographic spot in the Grand Canyon, for the very reason demonstrated above: if a photographer frames his picture just right, he can make it appear that his subject is leaping across a yawning chasm where the slightest misstep will seemingly result in the risk-taker's plummeting hundreds (if not thousands) of feet to  certain death on the canyon floor below.  What one doesn't see in these kinds of close shots is the connecting ledge just beneath the two rock formations, revealing that the jumper who misses his mark risks falling only a short ways, not plunging "900 meters":
