  • If you decide to start dancing in the street, everyone you bump into will know all the steps.

Bile, my celtic cousin....you missed a few..

You can talk in freefall.
Freefall lasts forever.
All skydivers are 'radical dudes'.
All DZs look like a scene from Fandango.
Opening parachutes sound like a duvet cover being aired.

how about:

- everyone has sex on the first date. In fact they go straight from meeting each other to pulling each others clothes off and having sex in the kitchen.

- all blind people have the ability to "see" things that normally sighted people cannot.

I was watching the two skydiving parts in Point Break, and if it wasn't for the big screen, people would never know that skydive rigs have leg straps. In every scene, they just throw them on like backpacks and go for a 4-5 minute freefall from 6k...
