Sky Diving

Have you guys ever wanted to try Sky diving? Well tandem sky diving lets you experience the thrill and beauty of freefall with the security of an instructor right there with you, able to talk to you and point things out in freefall and after the parachute is open. Over 1,500 of them are Tandem sky diving first jumps from 13,500′- over 2 1/2 miles high. This tandem sky diving experience is the opportunity of a lifetime to be extreme and experience the ultimate adrenalin rush of approximately 50 seconds of freefall.I did it; I couldnt believe it when i did it i just jumped off an airplane and fell more than two miles—eleven thousand feet. It is unbelievable. You jump and you are like not attached. Everything is gone. You are just falling with the wind rushing through your body. After i left the plane i was falling and stable and i could look around. So I looked. It was getting dark, but I could still see some features—fields, trees, roads, and of course lights. I looked at altimeter, looked around, looked at the clouds, looked at moon, the airfield. I didn't think looking was a big deal; I have seen the same view from planes. But i was still falling though, and i had time to think about the fact that i was actually there, falling...As I said, I had seen enough of the view, so a bit after passing 7000 feet, I just watched the altimeter. At 6000, i counted to three, signaled, looked, reached, and pulled. It is about thirty seconds from leaving the plane to pulling the ripcord. Hard to believe it was only 30 seconds. Gliding under the canopy lasts a lot longer than the free fall, and you are somewhat confident that you are safe, and you get to help steer the parachute to the field. You pull—very hard—on the handles on the left and right that increase the drag of the parachute on the corresponding side and thus turn you in that direction. I was told I did well, but I was pretty confused about what the instructor wanted at any given time. It was pretty exciting. You absolutely cannot imagine it i really want to do it all over again and i guess i will since i didnt want to pay for the video and pictures due to the fact i didnt want anyone to see my terrified face. Next time i will though but i really do recomend sky diving if you want to experience an adrenaline rush truely an amazing feeling.
