That's what I received for my 18 th birthday. It was a little nerve racking stepping out but, what a rush for the free fall. Then once the shoot opened it was really piece full. I would do it again

Tandem, where I went they said that you had to do so many before you were allowed to go solo. The place that I went was in Lancaster. I don't think that it took away from the experience, any time you jump out of a good plane at 10,000 ft. having a guy strapped to your back telling you what to do is probably a good thing. I'm sure I could have found a way to fugg it up. I did have to pay an extra $15 because I let go of the ripcord.

I was very, very closed to it this fall, but the situation changed and I didn't.

I was with two friends that jumped and it was a blast just to watch them!

Should be great fun!

There ain't no way in hell that I'm going to jump out a perfectly good airplane!

PREACH IT BROTHER!



I've done some dangerous stuff in my lifetime and jumping from an airplane will never be one of them!

You don't need a parachute to jump out an airplane......but you need a parachute to jump out of an airplane twice.:smiley_chinrub:

No way in hell I could do that, heights scare the crap out of me!

For those of you guys scared of heights you're more scared at 50 feet than you are at 5,000..
