You have a helmet on at take off and landing. If anything goes wrong inbetween a helmet won't do you much good anyway :lol:

reminds me of when I was over in Perris Valley (california), a geeky looking German guy took me for a ride in his ultralight, got upto about 8000 feet levelled off and then the engine started spluttering and we wnt into a dive:yikes: all the while "The Geek" was laughing like a demented banshee:yikes: at about 5000 feet he switched the petrol back on!!:cuss::lol:

Its just so wrong to go skydiving let me fill you in with my (thank him above )one try

1 i was strapped to a bloke who looked like a minature version of Wolf of the gladiators
2 the blokes who got out at 15 thousand or so ft and held onto the outside of the plane before letting go and my god did they disappear a bit quick to do their arial ballet they are just not right in the head
3 when you are in a plane they dont normally take off the 6mm ply wood door and it dosnt normally fill with clouds i would suggest 22mm and overboard with no more flying
4 when it your turn to have a go and you get shuffled across to the doorway whilst sitting on baby wolfs lap and he dangles you out at 12 th ft the feeling of impending doom is large v large
5 sorry i forgot the 1st one the only advice i got given was " Do not headbutt the fella you are strapped to as you will then die if he is knocked out " i was v carefull
5 right so your on the edge or the plane and he rocks back then forward and then you are doing 120 miles an hour in approx 2 seconds Correct me if im wrong but give or take a second or two all i know is thats a bit too much for my sences to control

6 so when the shute opens and your floating back to earth make sure your nads are either side of the straps as its not a great moment in your life
7 and the bit they dont tell you at about 2th ft they can release two catches that drop you a couple of inches so you can land a bit easier well i thought i was been jettersoned
8 would i do it again ?

If i didnt have kids then


Hell yes

but your all mad
