Skydiving

[Xog]

I've done over 20 jumps - my friend's dad has his own little parachuting group, I love going with them. My first jump I was scared as fuck, but you'll realize it isn't bad at all. When you land you'll get the most relieved feeling of your life - - - then want to do it again.

My friend and I are planning on doing a DMT jump, I've heard of someone doing it before and read their trip report.. Idk if I'm crazy enough to do it though.

But yea Adman, it's a great time. Just don't chicken out! Not many people die from skydiving anyways :\

Just think of it this way.. once you're out of the plane, you have but a few minutes to either
a) die
b) live

All it takes is a pull of a chord and you're alive.

hahaha i'm going on the weekend of the 13th... you can tell ME how it went for you if you die then i'm cancelling.

A friend did it a little while back. Apparently you don't get that sick feeling in your stomach from a free fall since you are already moving pretty fast when you jump out of the plane. It's definitely something that I want to try a bit later on.

no way.

I was afraid standing on top of the Stratosphere and the Eiffel Tower in Vegas (which evidently aren't that big compared to the real Eiffel Tower). I can't imagine falling from somewhere higher than that.

It's fun. Way better than rollercoasters. It's not fun enough to waste money all the time doing it, though.

I have heard nothing but positive things about it, my friends love it. One of my friends who is filthy rich actually went every weekend towards the end of school/summer, and loved it every time.

Have any of you guys done it before?

What is it like? Big rush?

MY first jump is this Saturday. Woo!
