Well I have never been in a plane and have no desire to ,but If I ever want to try Skydiving Ill have to overcome both my Two worst fears of Flying and falling to the earth at incredible speeds. I guess the whole idea of jumping out of a perfectly good plane and trusting a parachute you hope was packed correctly to do something as insane as this may sound nuts to some of us Im considering the classes Skydiving Videos to Share with Friends and Family!. My better half says I have lost my mind and that she said I could do this as long as my life insurance is up to date :deal:. I expected her to say that anyway but I'm still looking into it this year but it will be a difficult accomplishment for sure. How many here have done this once or more ? and is it worth the rush? What do I have to expect from my first tandem jump?

I would guess you want to check into Aflac also. Life insurance is only if you die. Can you afford 6-12 or 20 weeks off work as you recover?
Seriously, I use to hang with 4 ppl that loved to do this and everyone of them has broken bones doing it. Just from rough landings. Not my cup of tea...hopefully you'll hear from some more positive ppl. Lol

Better you than me man, I'll just live vicariously through you on this deal. I've been in small and large planes but never considered skydiving, I would like to try that wind tunnel deal that simulates it though. Hell even that would probably do my knees in but I'd try it once just to say I knew what it was like.
I checked with 2 of them tonight....all were headed in for a soft landing. But they were quick to point out this was after nearly 20-25 jumps. My Bud said it was just a bad landing,broke his wrist. His wife's was a collarbone fracture from a face plant. Both are very experienced and just called it up to a accident.
So I'd say I've taken more than 25 showers without incident hahaha I do agree there's dangers lurking everywhere. But like I said earlier,,just not my cup of tea.

Randi that did hurt :laugh: I dont want to be reminded of that face landing again. Well Im not 100% on this at all We4amigos but thanks for the heads up about your buddies experiences. maybe Ill check out a skydiving forum or something wait a minute the last time I did that I got hooked on minibikes :facepalm:. Time to rethink that.
