...in about two weeks. It'll be a tandem jump from 13,500 feet. $170 if I remember correctly.

I want to go skydiving.

Tell me if you feel the weightless feeling you feel going on drops on Roller Coasters.

I hate that feeling. :(

Packer · August 19, 2009, 10:26:33 PM

But seriously, I want to do that. I haven't even been on a plane let alone jump out of one

The closest I've been to skydiving is going onto those giant arch "Xtreme Skycoaster" things.

Also, please film it and post it onto here. :D

I was on one when I was babby.

You apparently have that "lose your lunch" feeling until you reach terminal velocity. This takes about six seconds. After that, they say it doesn't feel like you're falling anymore.

The wind is hella harsh though.

They have one of those skydiving simulations up in Denver, too bad if you make a wrong move like needle dive face down you'll fall flat on your face.

If you can, host a justin.tv or livestream while you jump out.

Yeah, that'd be cruel irony. Dying in a car wreck before you get to hurl yourself from a plane with only a thin sheet of nylon to save you. :(

Landing safely on a small grassy field only to discover you've landed in the alligator habitat at a local zoo. :o

Of course, that would make it suck even more if he died D:

Your parachute does not open and you keep falling at dangerously high speed, but you land in the ocean some how and survive long enough to swim to dry land safely.

And be torn apart buy a giant squid.
