teason 0 #1 October 21, 2004 During my IA cousre years back, I read that skydivers have above average intelligence. I have noticed that I have yet to come across a jumper that can't stimulate some sort of thought process. Click this link http://www.highiqsociety.org/noflash/nonmembers/iqtests.htm and post your result. I'm wondering what the average is. ...and yes, I know that these tests are flawed! I'm just curious. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Malta_Dog 0 #16 October 22, 2004 134 on the ultimate, 130 on the 12 minutes test...but the phone rang dammit!! As the website is charging 60$ to become a member, I wouldn't be astonished that the results are boosted. I was tested around 120 when I was a teen, and i sure don't feel brighter with age All your dropzone are belong to us!!!!111! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rehmwa 2 #19 October 22, 2004 QuoteAs the website is charging 60$ to become a member, I wouldn't be astonished that the results are boosted. From the difficulty of the questions on the 12 minute test, I doubt the ceiling of the thing is much over 140 or so. So scores over that would be inflated. ...
