| I've never been, but it's something I want to do before I die.(morbid) I just need to find someone to teach me, so you go first and let me know how it goes. Then I'll go.

| I've been once....my advice? Remember to bend your knees when you land, LOL. One of those things that I thought would be fun until it was time to jump and then the reality of being terrified of heights hit me.....I did the same think on a hot air balloon ride....I'm glad I did it once, but I'll never do either again!

| Thanks so much! I am really excited right now, but I'm sure I'll be terrified when I actually do it!!

BANNED! | I personally have no intention of jumping out of a perfectly good airplane. I wish you the best, let me know how it went for you. The most I have done is Hot Air Balloon Rides. Your braver then I am. Last edited by tiggerr36792; 07-26-2007 at 08:46 AM. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | I'm reminded of the old George Carlin airline routine where he says the stewardess asks him to get ON the plane. He says: **** you! I'm getting IN the plane! Never have been skydiving, never will. Good luck though! |

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | I can tell you that I am 100% POSITIVE that this is one thing in my life that I will NEVER do. lol Heights are my NUMBER ONE fear One of my brothers has done it several times, and BACKWARDS at that - he is completely NUTS!!!! He is a MAJOR daredevil though...so that explains it

| I have always wanted to go but never have! One of my brothers has gone several times, and he said it's just awesome!! I did, however, go on a ride at an amusement park called "rip chord". They take you up really high on a bungee-type thing, then they release you and you keep falling and then swing out. The falling part scared the HELL outta me, but the swinging part was fun!!! My daughter and I did it together.

| I haven't, but my mom and brother have. They did it over Playa del Carmen in Mexico and landed on the beach. Both of them said it was the biggest rush ever & were ready to do it again. It was the trip we took for my brother's high school graduation & that was one thing he'd always wanted to do, and we came across it while we were there, so my dad let him. Dad could see the look on Mom's face & asked her if she wanted to do it too. At first she said no but you could tell she really wanted to & changed her mind. They loved it.

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | Oh dear Lord! Good luck with that! It's one of those things I would LOVE to do, and I hope I do, but I don't know if I have the guts for it. I went on a giant swing on my class trip this year (you're in a waist harness attached to a rope and you pull a release cord and swing) that was only about 60 something feet in the air, and I was having a heart attack on that! and I'm one of those pessimistic people who can only think about the bad things that could happen.
