Default OT: JUmping out of a plane today.

Yup, gonna go skydiving. Anyone do this before? For some reason i'm calm but will probably be scared shitless once i'm up there.

Oh well, its on my list of things to do before i croak. Hope all goes well.

On topic-- wonder who gets my R if i don't make it? HAHA.

see you guys later-hopefully.

Very fun.

I don't think you'll croak since most likely you'll be piggybacking on an experienced sky diver.

Love the feeling when the chute deploys.

My first jump was one of the best rushes I've ever had. Standing at the door of a perfectly good airplane getting ready to jump out you can't help but wonder why/how the f%&k you got yourself into it

I've done it... what a rush... one word of advise, if you can be, be on the first plane in the morning, that way you will not get negative feed back from people that jumpede before you.
Its not worth it to get the video... and if you wanna be scared, be the last person out of the plane so that you see other "fall out" before you do.

BTW... you know those commercials where people are sky diving, waving at each other, sharing a dring w/the birds and just chillin in midair, etc??? well, forggetaboutit!!!!
you'le be FALLING ****!!!! no time for that... ever stick your hand out the sunroof at 100+ mph?

I've been and it was the most exhilarating experience. Highly recommended. One word of advice: Assuming you are doing a tandem jump, if the instructor offers you the opportunity to watch the altimeter and pull the chute, decline. Let him worry about that and just enjoy it. Have fun!

I went skydiving in Las Vegas this past August. I was the craziest chit ever!

I highly recommend it to anyone.

WHOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Well i made it and yes that was the coolest thing i've ever done. For some reason i wasn't scared and once i left the plane i felt very relaxed. It all seems like a dream. I guess my brain hasn't processed it all yet.

Video came out good and they shot a whole roll of film.
