FREE Skydiving
Link I am thinking about doing it. I find these studies very interesting, plus you get to skydive for free!

Re: FREE Skydiving
48 hours is a long time for a study though... but I am still considering it. Either way I am going skydiving this summer whether I pay for it or not. I can't wait!

Re: FREE Skydiving
I've always wanted to do that. I did a simulation of it at Action Park years ago...we were given suits that would fill with air and put into a room with a floor made from an ehaust fan. It was wild!
I have 3 herniated discs now and just had an epidural shot to help the pain..otherwise, I'd join you!

Re: FREE Skydiving
My brother used to love going skydiving. But he doesn't do it anymore since he almost hit power lines but instead landed in a tree had to cut the rope and hurt BOTH knees really really badly!! I always wanted to try it, but I know I would chicken out!!

He had to drive himself home from upstate with huge bags of ice on both knees. He wa slucky he didn't kill himself.

Where did you do it? Why wasn't it exciting?
I am excited for the freefall part. The parachute part, not so excited for that.

Re: FREE Skydiving
DH and I have been skydiving a couple of times. The first time was so overwhelming, that I figured I would try it again and really soak it all in. So I went the second time. The scary part is the plane ride up, then after that it is so quick. its about a minute of free fall, then parachute time. DH loves it though. We did go hang gliding though, I think that was so much cooler.
if you do go, I would get the video of it. DH and I love ours. We also love that our kids will be able to watch us as crazy teens jumping out of planes.
