Robert Overacker
Robert was a California stunt school graduate who was known to be a bit of dare-devil. And in 1995, he attempted to jump off Niagara Falls after having planned the stunt for more than seven years. The reason behind the stunt was honorable, he was trying to bring attention to the homeless as he written on his motorized ski boat, “Save the homeless.” Robert ended up riding off the Niagara Falls waters and plummeting to his death when his parachute failed to open.
