MikeJD 0 #27 January 16, 2012 Quote I'm not sure why any of the things mentioned is unnecessary to do once you skydive. A lot of the things mentioned look fun to do. After all, skydiving is only one thrilling thing to do. There is a lot of room for other things to do that 99% of the population will never do or even consider doing. Agreed. And this is where I think skydivers lose out. Yes, lose out to whuffos! Many of us spend all of our time and money at the DZ, while other people are out there enjoying a richer diversity of stuff.

LongWayToFall 0 #28 January 16, 2012 I think that my need to try and do many different things is what brought me to skydiving. I think almost every person here did their first jump because you and a few friends talked each other into it.... Why not do the same with other fun stuff? I am just not content to do one thing all of my life... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shropshire 0 #29 January 16, 2012 No one thing defines me, my life is shaped by the many things that I do... some I like doing, whilst other I need to. The top priority is always my Mrs, but the order of priority of the others changes..... We are all the sum of our parts, for me, the more parts the better balanced I feel - for others the ratio will be different. (.)Y(.)

cocheese 0 #30 January 16, 2012 You people that took this stupid thread too seriously need to lighten up a bit. Fuck it was inspired by the zip line piggy and the recent bungee mishap. If you can't find anything funny or profund to say in a bonfire thread, go blank yourself in speakers corner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillyVance 34 #31 January 16, 2012 Ride a goddamn uppity glue factory candidate. Did that in 2000 or 2001 (not sure) and the fucking horse threw me off. Broke a rib and sprained an ankle badly, and my head missed a wooden fence by 3 feet.
