    Skydiving

    I was lucky enough to get to try this a while back.
    Has any one else ever been? It was really fun. Did it over the Monterey Bay on a nice, clear day from 18,000ft.
    It was ridiculous, every time I see an airplane I think about jumping out of it. I highly recommend this to anyone who is physically able to do so.

    I haven't done it, but I would love to try some day!

      You know what they say....Only two things fall from the sky. Or was it three?

          I have just over 300 jumps which I got while I was part of the ERAU skydiving team. It was a lot of fun but I ran out of money when I started flight instructing and I sold my equipment.

          My brother has over 10,000 jumps. He used to do video jumps all summer then snowboard in Utah all winter. What a life.

                        I'm hoping to go skydiving with a couple of close friends for my 18th b-day, and if we cant arrange that then we may go scuba diving off of Catalina. Either way i will post pics.

                          Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. I thought about going there but there was a school closer to home.

                            What Madhatter said.

                            I could have gone to a school in NH but the thought of going to school in Dayton Beach sounded much better and slightly cheaper.

                              A patient of mine convinced me not to try it this week as he hurt his back bad when his chute opened too quickly. Now for me they could never open too quick.
