Skydiving

[Danielle Reid]

Not unless he cuts me loose to save his own ass lol. But I seriously want to try it one day

I love the satisfaction of being able to mark things off my bucket list and fully intend on trying skydiving sometime. I'll probably end up backing out at the last minute though!

Safer to jump by yourself. If it's your turn to go so be it.
If your strapped to someone and its there turn. Well......

Isn't there a requirement that a novice jumper has to do at least one (maybe more) tandem jumps before they're cleared to jump solo?

A group at my place of employment sponsors skydives to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (not directly sponsored by St. Jude, I should point out), and the guy here who recruits jumpers for the event says that's how it works for their jumps. Then again, that might be just how things are done here, or maybe there's legal reason for it for these jumps.

Cheers,
