bertusgeert 1 #1 November 8, 2004 I never see any crazies going through Static Line or AFF. Yet I see many crazy experienced skydivers. So do we get crazier the more we jump, or do we start out crazy? (I define "crazy" as the average non-jumper public would define the average skydiver, as portrayed in movies. For example, those jumpers with out of the ordinar haircuts, habits and lifestyles) --------------------------------------------- As jy dom is moet jy bloei!

dixieskydiver 0 #3 November 8, 2004 We definitely get crazier, definitely. Some people may start out crazy but in the end we end up crazier on average.

I disagree, other than a few piercings, I'm no different than i was before i started skydiving Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.
