If not you'll have some dude trying to dry hump you whilst falling from an airplane....no good.  |

I'm terrified of falling from heights, so this is a bizarre thing for me to want to try... |

| | The only winning move is not to play. | | Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Gainesville/Ft. Lauderdale, FL | | I did about two years ago. It was awesome. Awesome is a really overused word, but it was truly awesome.
I felt like I was about die for about the first second after jumping. I was thinking "Well #%&$! I'm stupid. I just jumped out of a perfectly good plane and now I'm going to die!"
That thought fades in an instant and becomes "THIS IS #$%@ING AWESOME! WOOOOO!"
I want to do it again so bad.

I skydived tandem in Las Vegas in 2005. We jumped from the height of around 13000 feet. We were in freefall for almost a minute!
Loved it!

We need a HoF.

It's the most fun you can have with your cloths on. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Apr 2004 Location: Augusta, GA & Saint Louis, MO | | I've done it a couple times now. The first jump I did was in Nelson, New Zealand. It is easily one of the coolest things I've ever done. I really didn't think it was all that scary. Not nearly as bad as bungee jumping. They let me take me camera up too, so I snapped some shots on the way down.
