Thats great mate - I'm keen as fuck to give that a try.
Just one thing... Did you notice there was a guy standing really close behind you the whole time? I think he may have been coming onto you. [:O]

Ha, I jumped out of that same plane with the same bloke strapped to my back. Great stuff.

I've done the same jump to. Awesome! The safety drill or lack of was scary. Just before I went on the plane my guy walked me over to my girlfriend who was being told what to do and just said "got that mate?" "yep!" "Ok let's go"!!
Indescribable feeling jumping from a plane. Definately recommend it!!

It was one of the coolest things i've ever done. Always loved heights, so this was fucking great. My brother jumped with me (he's in the first pic, on the right), which made it even better. We both got DVD's, and on his one, i got to watch myself fall out of a plane.
I've also been flying with him in a 2 plane seater that was technically overloaded with just us on board.
And i'd love to learn how do it solo.

I'd give this a crack too

was it very expensive? I know the full licence course is thousands.

I did a few static line jumps only at 2500-3000ft $500 at discount rate.

first fucking jump, you climb out and hang off the wing by yourself!! then let go!! then its GONNA DIE!! BLUE GREEN BLUE GREEN OOH My fucking god the shute worked I'm so happy. 4th jump the line came off the anchor under the seat and my shute came out still packed in the little black bag! very interesting day.
that was the only freefall I got tho :(.


go to ramblers at toogoolawah in summer - the backpackers/tourists are fucking HOT.

Kittinger is a ledgend.
I allways dreamed of breaking his record.
Did you see the billionaire who tried it the other day and his balloon took off without him?

I did a night jump over coloundra 13000ft in 2003 $340. It was a great veiw, crystal clear night and full moon. It is not as cold as you would think either.

If you do a day jump it is cheaper and they land on the beach.

Feels very similar to doin 160+ on a naked bike.

Felt a hell of a lot different to me. On a bike, you've got to hold on, and fight the wind. Skydiving was so much more, well, relaxing.
Massive fuggin rush, but effortless at the same time.

Everything they do sucks beacuse they make it all about their financial situation and how they look doing it. They are also so fucking safety concious that all the excitement is taken out of it too.


They need to take a page outta that brazillian priests book who floated off tied to helium balloons. He didn't know how to use his GPS or Sat Phone and ended up dissapearing. Fuggin excitement PLUS:D:D:D
