    Not really in my control, but I'll try not to.

    why would anyone intentionally jump out of a properly functioning aircraft?

    Sometimes you just have to jump. You cant get up if you never fall. Its the sudden stop that kills you. Practice for a non functioning aircraft.

    Skydiving was a blast, but holy hell make sure your leg straps are situated properly. Mine were too high so my full weight was on my crotch instead of my thighs when the shoot opened. Hoo boy. Assuming you are tandem jumping ask if you can backflip out of the plane for a bit of extra adrenaline.

    Hope the instructor you're strapped to is a female.

    Years ago I had a choice ... go skydiving or date a new lady ... went on the date and have been married 28 happy years now.

    It's not falling you need to be afraid of - it's the ground!

    Good luck and have fun though!

    And I didn't get to go today. Went in plane, clouds too low. Will be trying again in 2 weeks

    If you get the bug for it, try to do it somewhere near mountains. Any time you jump is thrilling, but having another height reference as you descend is breathtaking.
